== Chords and harmony ==

There are a number of ways to approach harmony in this subgroup, most of which are discussed in [[Superpyth #Chords and harmony]]. The basic forms of chords include the triad [[6:7:9]], the tetrad [[6:7:8:9]], and their utonal inverses. ~~Similarly, the~~ fourth-spanning triads [[6:7:8]] and [[21:24:28]] can be used, as well as their wide voicing 4:7:12 and 7:12:21. ~~Examples of extensions~~ of these chords are [[12:14:18:21]] and [[14:18:21:24]]. Like in [[5-limit]] [[JI]], one quickly runs into [[wolf interval]]s without care, but the 2.3.7 wolf being [[21/16]] or [[32/21]] may be considered less discordant, and useful in its own ways.

Like in [[5-limit]] [[JI]], one quickly runs into [[wolf interval]]s without care, but the 2.3.7 wolf being [[21/16]] or [[32/21]] may be considered less discordant, and useful in its own ways. For example, 1–9/8–21/16–3/2 and 1–8/7–4/3–3/2 may be considered [[21-odd-limit]] concords. They are conflated in superpyth as the sus2-4 chord, but subtlely contrast each other in JI.
