How to play the F#maj11 chord on piano

Split the recommended voicing between the hands: play F#2 and F3 with the left hand and B3 and Ab4 with the right. Suggested fingering is 5–1 on the left and 1–5 on the right (1 is the thumb). This practical voicing omits the third and perfect fifth (Bb and C#) so the third does not clash with the eleventh.
