I get what you mean, but I don't recall anywhere that I said I was talking theory - I just wanted to know the chord, and how to play it. Cb is absolutely correct, but when I said "try this voicing" I was naming the notes to hit, which (again, in my opinion) is saying "hit this note, this note, and this note." Not being as schooled as some here, to me it is far easier to say B than Cb.

But again, yes, you are 100% correct.

Again, I hate to be pedantic, but no, Cb is not the same as B natural. When
you play the note on the keyboard, yes, you are hitting the same key. But on
the written page and when talking theory as we were, absolutely not.

BTW, unfretted instruments like violin play Cb differently than B natural.
