I would recommend moving the hand further into the keyboard for "F# minor" chord. That way the thumb (finger 1) will be able to easily play the black key F#, and the little finger (finger 5) can cover the C#. The middle finger should play the white key A. Avoid the common error of using the index finger for the F#. Whilst it may work initially as a method for fingering the chord, it will present difficulties when the student progresses to playing a melody and chord at the same time in the right hand. This is because if you are using finger 2 (index) on the F#, and finger 3 (middle) on the A note, there is then no way of playing a note in between these two keys, such as the G or G#.


TOP TIP: Musical chords can be known by 2 different names. With this chord, we call it here "F#minor". However, it could also be called "G flat minor". Other examples would be "C# minor" and "Db minor" and "Bb major" and "A# major".
