{{quote|Dp stands for Dominant-parallel. The word "parallel" in German has the meaning of "relative" in English. G major and E minor are called parallel keys. The G major chord and the E minor chord in the key of C major are called parallel chords in the Riemann system.|<ref>Gail Boyd de Stwolinski Center for Music Theory Pedagogy (1993). ''[[Journal of Music Theory Pedagogy]], Volumes 5-7'', p.37, n.9. School of Music, The University of Oklahoma. What is meant here is that, in the key of C major, G major (the dominant) and E minor (the mediant, the relative of the dominant) are "parallel" (relative) to each other. The same could be said of C major and A minor (the tonic and its relative) and of F major and D minor (the subdominant and its relative).</ref>}}
