The chords (harmony) on Alkionides 2 - Zhanna, George recreated from figured bass transcription of previous post

Key is E flat minor so chords are derived as: Actually first bass code is C6 ie bCbEbA. Then bEbGbB, bDFbB, bCbEbGbB, bAbCbEbB etc. Zhanna's melody fits so well and creates such nice 6th, 9th intervals. While I was downstirs she even got the brilliant starting C6 chord by ear creating such refined atmosphere with her melody. Some kind of new age music had been playing at the same time from the PA system of Alkionides at a strange key.
