It's built using six notes: C#, E#, G#, B, D#, and A#, which together form a foundation of a root, a major third, a perfect fifth, a minor seventh, a major ninth, and a major thirteenth. This chord is a staple in jazz and blues, where its lush, extended sound adds colour and sophistication to a piece. Musicians love using the C#13 to inject a sense of movement and tension, often leading into more resolved chords, making it a perfect fit for creating dynamic and engaging chord progressions.
InversionsChord inversions refer to the different ways you can play a chord by rearranging the order of its notes. When a chord is inverted, one or more notes are shifted up an octave, changing the "bass" or lowest note of the chord. Even though the notes remain the same, the overall sound and feel of the chord changes depending on which note is the lowest.
