The B minor chord
consists of one and one-half steps (from the note B to the note D, a minor
3rd interval) plus two whole steps (from the note D to the note F#, a major
3rd interval). Therefore, the three notes that comprise an B minor chord
are: B + D + F#. This analysis holds true for all minor chords.
Notice that the spelling of the B minor chord form in Figure 1 is B + F#
+ B + D + F#.
Figure 2 demonstrates an easier
fingering for the B minor chord. Notice that with this fingering your omitting
the root, or low B note. |
