Many thanks to everyone who has responded. It seems there are as many different chords as there are recordings of this piece. The one I was addressing was the 1940 Glenn Miller version. What to call the chord was not the issue -- I was concerned with the the actual trombone notes. In fact they are Db, F, Bb, Cb, Eb, a five-part chord, so a saxophone is also involved. I'd call that Db13. Some might say it should be Db13(9). Has anyone else written a song about their phone number?
