 another (newbie) epiphany moment for me? So I was just transposing my copy of Fly Me To The Moon in Eb to C so that I could practice with posting in the practical standards post. In this song (in the 557 copy, in Eb) the coda begins with a b13(#11) chord. While transposing, I realized that my fingers could play these notes in a 7#9 form (adding the root into the base). So, after transposing into C, the Bb13(#11) could be played like a E7#9/Bb! Is this a tri tone sub??? Or is this just a different spelling of the same chord?

| Yes, a tri-tone sub is replacing a 7th chord with another 7th chord a diminished 5th away, and vice versa, so E7 can be replaced by Bb7, D7 by Ab7 etc. and they are interchangeable. You can add any alterations like #9, b5, #5 and colourations like a 13, etc. with that 7th chord. Congratulations! You found it out yourself, always the best way!  |

| You can work this out yourself, but when using TT substitution: R <=> #11 (b5) b9 <=> 5 9 <=> #5 (b13) #9 <=> 13 3 <=> b7 4 (11) <=> 7 |
