A♭9♯11

A♭ 9th Sharp 11 · 4 fingerings

Raising the eleventh sidesteps the clash with the major third, so A♭9♯11 keeps its full dominant character while gaining a bright, floating top note. This is the classic Lydian dominant sound, central to jazz and fusion, and it sits perfectly over the fourth mode of melodic minor. Sophisticated and unmistakably modern.
