I know that in some (old) german music "H" means B flat...

B minor is no stranger to me.
Check this site out to help with any chords you don't know... or would like to find alternatives to.
Just punch the chord in as written. (NO Hm, whatever that is!)

I'm searching tabs, and one of the 'chords' is Hm.
I don't understand this term, this isn't a chord... is it? Does it mean something else?
Example:
hm G hm G
F C

Any ideas?

Yup. You're definatley drunk.
E|-----|--1--|-----|-----|
B|-----|--1--|-----|-----|
G|-----|--1--|-----|--3--|
D|-----|--1--|-----|--4--|
A|-----|--1--|--2--|-----|
E|-----|--1--|-----|-----
Bm would be:
E|-----|--1--|-----|-----|
B|-----|--1--|--2--|-----|
G|-----|--1--|-----|--4--|
D|-----|--1--|-----|--3--|
A|-----|--1--|-----|-----|
E|-----|--1--|-----|-----
Feck? Am I that p1ss3d/stoopid?
Edit: Yes I am! Tweaked to show what I was thinking... all my tab books showed stuff the bottom way, the other is the opposite.

err... As I said in another thread very often you download song score only to learn that it is simplificated with some pretty primmitive or wrong harmony progression, much simpler than original song... Internet is a pretty crappy place when it comes to free scores.
like I. IV. V. instead of I. IV. V. VI. II. III. bla, bla etc, etc........

So it is not C, D, E, F, G, A, B but C, D, E, F, G, A, H
It's B-minor

Close. In German, Norwegian and some other languages, the note that is called "B" in English is called "H". English "B flat" is German "B". For example, German "BACH" is English B flat A C B (Bach used that as a kind of signature in his music).

Originally posted by HandyAndyYou can find this theme (D-S-C-H) in a lot of Shostakovich's works (chamber music and even in first cello concert I think ), Bach used his (B-A-C-H) in his last fugue from "The art of fugue" which is left unfinished... Some people believe he passed away while writting this last fugue with his signature motif....

Originally posted by Ice ColdAccording to music theory, the natural sign in musical notation derives from a square B. The letter H is a deformation of a square B. Back when musical notation was developing, B was the first note that had to be altered, or flattened, for certain chords. Note that the flat symbol resembles a lower-case b.
Could it be for harmonic? 😕
See?
