Dominant 9th arpeggios are built by stacking a major third (from the root A to the third C-sharp), followed by two minor thirds (from C-sharp to the fifth E and from E to the seventh G) and a major third (from G to the ninth B). This structure corresponds exactly to the dominant ninth chords often found in blues and funk.
