— About this chord

A#6/9 layers both the sixth and ninth over a major triad for a lush, unresolved 'ending chord' sound beloved in jazz and bossa nova as a I-chord substitute for plain major or major7. Its open, ambiguous color makes it a favorite closer for tunes, avoiding the finality of a plain major triad. Also searched as Bb6/9.
