In the score to the right is an example of a Duke Ellington composition that uses a different voicing of this chord at the end of the second bar, played on E (E 13 ♯ 11).
Musical technique may also be distinguished from music theory, in that performance is a practical matter, but study of music theory is often used to understand better and to improve techniques.

It may also be called the "minor-third half-step scale", owing to the series of intervals produced.
For example, Berklee Music Theory - Book 2 recommends the following accompaniment for a given lead sheet, [2] while this progression does not occur in common practice theory since all the chords are seventh chords and unprepared dissonant. Accompaniment acceptable in the Berklee method [2] but not in common practice theory. Play ⓘ
