@node Chord notation
Chord mode and note mode can be mixed in sequential music:
-@lilypond[verbatim,quote,ragged-right,relative=1]
-<c e g>2 <g b d>
-\chordmode { c2 f }
-<c e g>2 <g' b d>
-\chordmode { f2 g }
+@lilypond[verbatim,quote,ragged-right]
+\relative {
+ <c' e g>2 <g b d>
+ \chordmode { c2 f }
+ <c e g>2 <g' b d>
+ \chordmode { f2 g }
+}
@end lilypond
@seealso
Predefined shorthands for articulations and ornaments cannot be used
on notes in chord mode, see @ref{Articulations and ornamentations}.
-When chord mode and note mode are mixed in sequential music, and
-chord mode comes first, the note mode will create a new @code{Staff}
-context:
-
-@lilypond[verbatim,quote,ragged-right,relative=1]
-\chordmode { c2 f }
-<c e g>2 <g' b d>
-@end lilypond
-
-@noindent
-To avoid this behavior, explicitly create the @code{Staff} context:
-
-@lilypond[verbatim,quote,ragged-right,relative=1]
-\new Staff {
- \chordmode { c2 f }
- <c e g>2 <g' b d>

-Note that both @code{c:5} and @code{c} produce a C major triad.
+As a special exception, @code{c:5} produces a @q{power chord} only

unaltered 13, the 11 is removed from a @code{:13} chord (unless it
