C maj7b5 Chord
How the C maj7b5 chord is built: its notes, its interval structure, and where it fits.
The C maj7b5 chord contains 4 notes: C – E – F# – B. It belongs to the altered family of chord qualities. Like every chord, it is defined by the distances (intervals) between its notes, not by any one instrument — which is why the same formula names the chord whether it is voiced on a fretboard, a keyboard, or a choir.
