The '''counter parallel''' or '''contrast chord''' is terminology used in German theory derived mainly from Hugo Riemann to refer to (US:) [[relative (music)|relative]] (German: parallel) [[diatonic function]]s and is abbreviated Tcp in major and tCp in minor (Tkp respectively tKp in Riemann's diction). The chord can be seen as the "tonic parallel reversed" and is in a major key the same chord as the dominant parallel (Dp) and in a minor key equal to the subdominant parallel (sP); yet, it has another function. According to Riemann the chord is derived through '''''Leittonwechselklänge''''' (German: "[[leading-tone]] contrast chords"), abbreviated Tl in major and tL in minor.
