A dominant seventh sharp five flat ninth chord is composed using a root/1st, major 3rd, augmented 5th, minor 7th, minor 9th (or R/1-3-♯5-♭7-♭9) intervals played simultaneously. Generally written as C7(♯5♭9) or C7(+5-9), it is good practice to simply use an uppercase C followed by a super scripted 7(♯5♭9) to represent it in writing (ie: C7(♯5♭9)).
