'''2:3''' is a 3-limit [[dyad]], known as the '''five chord''' (as in C5 not V), or as the '''power chord'''. This dyad is indispensable in certain musical genres such as [[African music#Equiheptatonic tunings|mbira music]]<nowiki/>and late medieval music. In the latter, when voiced as hi5add8, it's known as the '''trine''', a very common closing chord.
