...but I can reach, easily, a minor 3rd above with either hand.
Maybe the major 3rd with moderate effort and the 4th if arthritis isn't bothering me.
I read that Thelonious Monk could easily do the 6th above with either hand. He could play a 4 tone chord with his thumb on the root and the 5th at the top. That's a long set of fingers!
