The Augmented Triad

Discover the expansive, mysterious sonority of the Augmented Triad.

The Expansion of Two Major Thirds

The Augmented Triad opens sound space symmetrically: it is formed by stacking two consecutive Major 3rds (4 + 4 semitones). Its outer frame stretches to an Augmented 5th (8 semitones).

Weightlessness & Impressionist Suspension

Two major thirds expand the outer fifth into an augmented interval, untethering standard tonal gravity to create dreamlike atmospheres, weightlessness, and cinematic wonder.
