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.

Original Question

What is a G# MINOR piano chord?
Q. I am taking music classes an on my key chart they have a G#M. I can not find this chord, I need the root and the 1st & 2nd inversion.

If anyone can help me I would appreciate it.

A. Root position: G# B D#

1st inversion: B D# G#

2nd inversion: D# G# B

A good theory site is:
http://www.dolmetsch.com/ourresources.htm

If you are studying music an excellent book to have is "The Bradley Book of Chords, Scales & Modes" by Stephen Skinner. It talks about how scales and chords are formed and then lists most every scale and chord in every key that you would probably ever want to know about.

Hope this will help you.
