<p>A system of harmonic analysis. It is based on the idea that, in a
given key, there are only three functionally different chords: tonic
(T, the chord on the first note of the scale), subdominant (S, the
chord on the fourth note), and dominant (D, the chord on the fifth
note). Others are considered to be variants of the base chords.
