B Chord

The B major triad, more commonly called the B major chord or simply the B chord for short, consists of the notes B, D-sharp and F-sharp. Here it is on the treble clef staff:

… and on the piano:

As B major triad, the B chord consists of a major third plus a minor third. The interval from B to D-sharp is a major third, while the interval between D-sharp and F-sharp is a minor third.

Inversions of the B Chord

If the root of the B chord – B – is the bass note (i.e., the bottom note), then the chord is in root position: If the third of the chord – D-sharp – is the bottom note, then the chord is in first inversion: If the fifth of the chord – F-sharp – is the bass note, then the chord is in second inversion. (F-sharp is called the fifth of the chord because the interval from the root B to F-sharp is a fifth.)
