Is there a website that has information or a guide to different Piano chords?

Q. I've been practicing the piano/keyboard recently and was wondering if there is a website that has information/references on the different chords that are featured in sheet music? I only know a few but there are some that I just have no idea on. Let me know if you can help.

A. Tons of 'em!

Use Google.com to search:

piano chords

and have at 'em! There are also printable charts which are good to help you memorize all the chords.

Original Question

Where should I keep my fingers on my musical keyboard?
Q. In my aim to check another mark off MY BUCKET-LIST, I have bought a 61-key musical keyboard to learn music.
Exactly where on this keyboard should I place my hands (fingers) as my HOME KEYS and should I learn to s-t-r-e-t-c-h my fingers when playing different tunes that require me to move from these home keys (if this is what they are called)?

A. Maybe, but ol' Tony is beating around the bush once again.

Your reference to 'home keys' probably means when using your left hand for the music's key chord patterns you are wanting to play. The right (hand), is melody, or what the song has as its main musical writing so expressed by the single-notation line. Other parts of the staff'/stanza reflects the chord and any other instrument or voice guide through the musical composition.

First get to know the piano chord patterns, and of the major keys you can then play in, to compliment any melody. Left hand chord, right hand fingering the melody. Listen to the music whenever possible to help ingrain such audible information to your memory. This can be a great guide for those who accomplish playing 'by ear'.

There should be little concern for stretching, or reaching for the basic keys (chords) one can play most all musical tunes existing. More complicated spreading of the hands come with both-hand chord exercises (and fingering) and more complicated composition interpretations and advanced play.

You have to learn to walk, jog and skip before you can run the marathon.

Get some books on beginner piano, chord charts and any CD or DVD for your next learning guides.

Original Question

Reference for chord voicings on piano?
Q. Hi, I was wondering if you guys know of any online reference or book with different chord voicing styles? Lol, I have writers block right now and need some inspiration. Thanks in advance.

A. "Chord voicing styles" ... I'm not sure what that means. Are you asking for a chord chart, inversion of chords, or progressions. I personally don't like the approach of writing music from a chord progression; I write melody first and then work on the harmony.

I don't have any ready reference for chord progressions, but you can go to http://www.pianoworld.com/fun/vpc/piano_chords.htm to build chords and scales.
