Augmentation and Diminution
In this lesson we will look at the terms of Augmentation and Diminution.
We look at how to use these terms in our arrangements and analyse how these can improve our arrangements.

Augmentation
Augmentation is the technique of extending something.
This could be:
Extending the distance in chord intervals
Extending the length of the notes
Extending parts

Diminution
Diminution is the opposite process of Augmentation. Diminution refers to the shortening of something.
This could be:
Shortening a long note into smaller sections
Narrowing the intervals between notes in a chord

Augmented Chords
Augmented chords are chords in which an interval has been extended from the usual intervals found in that chord.
For example:

Diminished Chords
Diminished Chords are chords which have had an interval decreased.
