B Flat Power Chord (also written A#5)
Bb5 is made of 2 notes: Bb and F. Here it is in root position, with Bb at the bottom.
Inside Notley Piano: all the inversions of Bb5, fingering for both hands, a play button, and practice that helps you remember it.
| Note | Degree | Interval from Bb |
|---|---|---|
| Bb | 1 | root |
| F | 5 | perfect 5th |
A power chord is just the root and the 5th, with no 3rd, so it is neither major nor minor. It sounds strong and clean with distortion, which is why rock and metal use it so much.
