A minor triad is a triad comprising a root, minor third, and fifth.
In just intonation
In the 7-limit:
- 6:7:9, a subminor triad, is a 9-odd-limit chord that tunes the third flatter than the 5-limit minor.
In the 5-limit:
- 10:12:15 is found on the iii (5⁄4) and vi (5⁄3) of Ptolemy's intense diatonic scale (Zarlino), perhaps the most common 5-limit diatonic.
- 27:32:40 is found on the ii (9⁄8) of Ptolemy's intense diatonic scale.
In the 3-limit:
- 54:64:81 is found on the ii (9⁄8), iii (81⁄64), and vi (27⁄16) of the Pythagorean diatonic scale.
