Minor added ninth chord

A minor added ninth chord is composed using a root/1^st, minor 3^rd, perfect 5^th and major 9^th (or R/1-♭3-5-9) intervals played simultaneously. Generally written as Cmi^add9 or Cmi^(add9), it is good practice to simply use an uppercase C, the letters mi followed by a super scripted ^add9 to represent it in writing (ie: Cmi^add9).

As with the major added ninth chord, to be called a mi^add9 chord it must not contain a seventh degree whether it be major, minor or diminished.
