About this chord
The minor 13th chord adds the major sixth to the m11, creating the most extended minor chord possible. Its sixth in a minor context gives it its bittersweet characteristic color. Very present in contemporary jazz and high-end R&B, practical voicings select 4–5 notes from its 7 components.
