piano chord

E♭6

E♭1G3B♭5C6

A major triad with a sixth added. The same four notes as a minor seventh chord a third below.

Written the other way round it is D♯6 — the same twelve keys on a piano, a different piece of notation.

What is true of it

E♭6 is E♭, G, B♭ and C — 1, 3, 5 and 6 counted from E♭.

These are also the notes of Cm7/E♭. Which name is right depends on what is underneath and what came before — the notes alone do not decide.

On an instrument that cannot reach all 4, the 5 goes first, in that order.
