第六课：和弦调声

Composers will often arrange the notes of a chord in numerous ways in order to vary its sound. This process is called voicing.
（作曲家经常会为了让和弦的音响不同，把一个和弦的音符按照不同的方式排列。这叫做调声）
To demonstrate this, we will voice an F major triad in root position.
（我们用F的大三和弦的基本音位演示一下）
Notice that we can arrange the notes in any order as long as F, A, and C are used and F is the lowest note.
（注意，只要同时用到了F、A、C三个音符且F是最低音，我们就可以将音符排列成不同的顺序）

Next, we will voice an F major triad in first inversion.
（接下来我们来将F的大三和弦的第一转位调声）
By definition, a chord is in first inversion when the third is the lowest note. Thus, we need to make sure that each of our voicings uses A for the bottom note.
（从定义上说，和弦的第一转位就意味着我们需要将三音保持在最低音的位置，所以A要保持在最低音）

Finally, we will voice an F major triad in second inversion.
（接下来我们将F的大三和弦的第二转位调声）
The process is the same; however, we must be certain that the fifth (C) is used as the lowest note.
（步骤相同，但我们一定要保证五音（C）是最低音）
