Today we're going to learn to form an 13th chord. It's just like the 11th chord, except you move your little finger up from the 5th of the chord to the 13th -- same as the 6th, except the chord includes the 7th, 9th, and 11th.
So the formula to construct the 13th chord is:
A 13th Piano Chord =
Get your chord in 2nd inversion, add the 7th and 9th and 11th,
then bring your little finger up a whole step --
from the 5th to the 13th (same as the 6th).
(Remember that accidentals carry over in each measure!)
(The lowest note in each case is the root of the chord -- even though I have shown them above directly under the chord, be sure to play that note before you play the chord, and use your sustain pedal to "hook the two parts together".
