I found a cool chord in Mompou. It is a diminished triad with a major seventh and a ninth on top. So it has three minor thirds in all, with a major fourth between the flatted fifth and the major ninth. Transposed to the key of C it would be
C / Eb / Gb / B / D
I'm going to have to borrow this chord for a composition of my own. I don't know what it really is, but he uses it in two different keys at the conclusion of two successive phrases.
