In the next we will show that any note of the diatonic scale fits harmonically with any major of minor chord of the same diatonic scale because the number of harmonic mutual intervals created (that is intervals of 3rds, 6ths, 45ths, or 4ths) is greater than the number of chromatic intervals created (that is intervals of 2nds or 7nths).
Of course this does not mean that a note fits the same well with any of the chords of the same diatonic scale. Not at all!

This is mild statement to that claim of jazz that any note of the 12-notes chromatic scale fits in improvisation with any major or minor chords as long as the type and number of created intervals chromatic or harmonic dissonant or consonant is desirable as musical and expression effect.

Based on this remark we may understand better , why playing constantly a single but any chord of a diatonic scale, and then melodies over the chord-courtyard mode of the scale of it (see post 103) we result with a valid and beautiful sounding improvisation.
Many happy dancing Irish songs that have only one or only two chords are based in this. Similarly many Greek Cretan folk dancing songs with a bowed string instrument called lyra or flutes (spyrohaviolo, thiampoli , bagpipe etc) area also based on this, as all the song again has only one chord or two chords, while the melodies over this simple harmony are fast , dense , happy and with many embellishments.
