How to play G♯m on piano

The G♯m chord is G♯ B D♯: G♯ (root), B (minor 3rd), D♯ (perfect 5th).

Right hand: thumb on G♯, then fingers 3 and 5 on B and D♯. Left hand: finger 5 on G♯, 3 and 1 on the notes above.

Each inversion moves the bottom note up an octave. Practicing them in a row teaches your hand the same chord in three shapes, so you can reach it from wherever your hand already is.
