Chord #50 - G6(#11) no 3rd

chordaday50

Today's chord can be used for multiple settings. Although I initially heard it as a Major Lydian voicing, it can also be used as both a dominant chord and a minor chord voicing.

In my musical example, the chord progression outlined is in G Dorian(#4), a mode of D Harmonic Minor. In this case, today's voicing actually functions as the tonic chord for this progression (G6(#11)no 3rd - Bbmin(add#11) - A).

I also kept two common tones throughout the different chords - the E natural and C#(Db).

Enjoy!
