@haleshannon @cincopedia Ooh, fun fact about "Maria" from West Side Story—those three notes are a tritone called The Devil's Chord because people in the Middle Ages found the notes so dissonant. Then Bernstein/Sondheim went and made them "the most beautiful sound I ever heard..." https://t.co/oPMICp9GLx
