Minor arpeggios consist of the root (1), minor third (m3) and perfect fifth (5), corresponding to the notes A, C and E. A fingering is formed from each of these notes, creating three positions called root position, 1st inversion (from the third) or 2nd inversion (from the fifth). To learn these fingerings, practice the minor arpeggio exercise.
