Half-diminished seventh chord
The half-diminished seventh chord (also known as a minor seventh flat five) is created by taking the root, minor third, diminished fifth and minor seventh (1, â™3, â™5 and â™7) of any major scale; for example, C half-diminished would be (C Eâ™ Gâ™ Bâ™). In diatonic harmony, the half-diminished chord naturally occurs on the 7th scale tone (for example, Bm7(â™5) in C major).
