Typically, the 3rd and the 7th are the primary indicators of chord quality, and the 5th is secondary. Rootless voicings are most commonly used in settings where an instrument such as piano or guitar is providing harmonic support in an ensemble/group setting, and an instrument (usually bass) has already stated the root of the chord. In composition, rootless voicings are utilized to keep the tonal center ambiguous and allow for the possibility of shifting the root of the chord underneath the harmony to create interest.

You want to learn Für Elise piano notes? You have come to the right place! Für Elise is one of the most famous piano pieces of all time. Composed by Ludwig Van Beethoven in 1810, it only became internationally known in 1867, when it was published posthumously. In 1865, the musicologist Ludwig Nohl found by chance the score of the work, which had been forgotten until then. The paper was in poor condition and only the last two letters of the first name in the title were identifiable: “SE”. The musicologist arbitrarily gave the name Elise to this composition.
