4-Note Rootless (Type A/B)

The Type A voicing of A#7#9 stacks C##, E#, G# and C# from the bottom up: the major 3rd, 5th, minor 7th and sharp 9th of the chord. It leaves out the root, A#, for the left hand or the bass player to take.

It's one of the 4-Note Rootless (Type A/B) voicings: four-note rootless voicings in their two forms, with the 3rd or the 7th on the bottom, played over the root. The other for A#7#9 is Type B.
