In jazz music, on the other hand, such chords are extremely common, and in this setting the mystic chord can be viewed simply as a C 13 ♯ 11 chord with the fifth omitted. 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 ).
