For example, C 6/9 is C–E–G–A–D. It is not a tense chord requiring resolution, and is considered a substitute for the tonic in jazz. The minor 6/9 chord is a minor triad with an added 6th and 9th, evoking the Dorian mode, and is also suitable as a minor tonic in jazz. [17] The second degree is octave equivalent to the ninth.
The practice of adding tones may have led to superimposing chords and tonalities, though added tone chords have most often been used as more intense substitutes for traditional chords. [3] For instance a minor chord that includes a major second factor holds a great deal more dramatic tension due to the very close interval between the major ...
One way is to simply use the word 'add', for example, C add 9. The second way is to use 2 instead of 9, implying that it is not a seventh chord, for instance, C 2. Note that this provides other ways of showing a ninth chord, for instance, C 7add 9, C 7add 2, or C 7/9. Generally however, this is shown as simply C 9, which
[12] In jazz, 7 ♯ 9 chords, along with 7 ♭ 9 chords, are often employed as the dominant chord in a minor ii–V–I turnaround. For example, a ii–V–I in C minor could be played as: Dm 7 ♭ 5 – G 7 ♯ 9 – Cm 7. The 7 ♯ 9 represents a major divergence from the world of tertian chord theory, where chords are stacks of major and ...
Example 1: Below, a common voicing used by jazz pianists is given for the chord C 7 ♯ 9 (C major chord with a minor 7th, and extended with an augmented 9th). In the lower stave the notes E ♮ and B ♭ are given. These form a tritone which defines the dominant sound, and are the major 3rd and minor 7th of the C 7 ♯ 9 chord.
This is a bebop approach similar to targeting. This technique can be used over any dominant chord that can be treated as a flat nine (b9) dominant chord. It entails moving from the third of a dominant chord, to the flat nine of a dominant chord, by skipping directly to the ninth, or by a diminished arpeggio (ascending: 3rd, 5th 7th, ♭ 9th ...
The major ninth chord 8:10:12:15:18 is also otonal. Examples of ambitonal chords are the major sixth chord (12:15:18:20) and the major seventh chord (8:10:12:15). Ambitonal chords often can be reasonably interpreted as either major or minor. For example, CM 6, in certain contexts or voicings, can be interpreted as Am 7.
C tuning – C-F-A ♯-d ♯-g-c'-f' / C-F-B ♭-e ♭-g-c'-f' Half a step up from standard, used by Eddie Rendini during his time in Cold. C ♯ tuning – C ♯-F ♯-B-e-a-c ♯-f ♯ The whole step up from standard. This tuning was used by Wes Borland with high E-string being lowered to C ♯ (C ♯-F ♯-B-e-a-c ♯-c ♯) on the first two ...
