Minor 7th flat five arpeggios are built by stacking two minor thirds (from the root A to the minor third C and from C to the diminished fifth E-flat) followed by a major third (from E-flat to the seventh G). This structure is not only found in the Am7b5 chord, but also in extended chords in transposed form. For detailed analysis, see our study on superimposing arpeggios.
