00:00:00,140  -->  00:00:03,070
Extending the left hand,
the 10ths ballad style.
2

2

00:00:04,290  -->  00:00:07,687
Up to now you've played what we
could call an octave ballad style.
3

3

00:00:07,687  -->  00:00:11,072
So, first, fifth, first,
that's an octave, okay?
4

4

00:00:11,072  -->  00:00:13,050
It's contained within the octave.
5

5

00:00:13,050  -->  00:00:17,762
Now, this can be useful because
it leaves out the third.
6

6

00:00:17,762  -->  00:00:23,226
So C-major, leaving out the third,
you're just playing first, fifth, root.
7

7

00:00:23,226  -->  00:00:27,670
C minor, you're leaving out the third and
playing first, fifth, and the root.
8

8

00:00:27,670  -->  00:00:30,340
So first, fifth,
root is the same for both chords.
9

9

00:00:30,340  -->  00:00:34,780
That allows you to play either minor or
major in the righthand.
10

10

00:00:34,780  -->  00:00:39,720
If however, you actually want the left
hand to give the tonality of the chord,
11

11

00:00:39,720  -->  00:00:42,165
you can use an extended
ballad style using 10ths.
12

12

00:00:42,165  -->  00:00:46,598
So this means that you do play the third,
but as a higher note,
13

13

00:00:46,598  -->  00:00:48,573
ten notes up from the root.
14

14

00:00:48,573  -->  00:00:53,008
So look at C, C is C, E,
G, there's the third.
15

15

00:00:53,008  -->  00:00:54,969
So you're going to play first, fifth, and
16

16

00:00:54,969  -->  00:00:57,570
you're going to play the third
ten notes up from the root.
17

17

00:00:57,570  -->  00:01:00,635
Five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
18

18

00:01:00,635  -->  00:01:05,394
Fifth, tenth.
19

19

00:01:05,394  -->  00:01:10,608
Perfect C-minor, C-minor C,
E-flat, G, there's a third.
20

20

00:01:10,608  -->  00:01:16,529
We can play it up there.
21

21

00:01:16,529  -->  00:01:18,792
So that's a definite C-minor chord.
22

22

00:01:18,792  -->  00:01:21,010
C-major in the right hand won't work.
23

23

00:01:21,010  -->  00:01:23,308
Okay?
24

24

00:01:23,308  -->  00:01:25,189
And that's a definite C-major chord,
C-minor won't work in that.
25

25

00:01:25,189  -->  00:01:26,571
[MUSIC]
26

26

00:01:26,571  -->  00:01:27,430
Has to be C-major.
27

27

00:01:27,430  -->  00:01:34,314
So with tenths, you're branching from
the first to the fifth to the tenth.
28

28

00:01:34,314  -->  00:01:36,428
[MUSIC]
29

29

00:01:36,428  -->  00:01:41,350
It's a bit of a stretch and that's why
it's best to start with an octave style.
30

30

00:01:41,350  -->  00:01:42,953
[MUSIC]
31

31

00:01:42,953  -->  00:01:47,411
But if you keep practicing,
you will be able to stretch them, and
32

32

00:01:47,411  -->  00:01:50,262
to begin with you can swivel on the fifth.
33

33

00:01:50,262  -->  00:01:52,192
[MUSIC]
34

34

00:01:52,192  -->  00:01:53,145
Lift your hand.
35

35

00:01:53,145  -->  00:01:56,989
[MUSIC]
36

36

00:01:56,989  -->  00:02:02,257
Now on the next page transpose this
tenth pattern to the chords of A-minor,
37

37

00:02:02,257  -->  00:02:05,484
F, and G, and
you can use it in a progression.
38

38

00:02:05,484  -->  00:02:06,981
[MUSIC]
So it's C, first, fifth, tenth,
39

39

00:02:06,981  -->  00:02:07,693
play that twice.
40

40

00:02:07,693  -->  00:02:09,271
[MUSIC]
41

41

00:02:09,271  -->  00:02:11,814
Down to A-minor first, fifth.
42

42

00:02:11,814  -->  00:02:13,835
[MUSIC]
43

43

00:02:13,835  -->  00:02:18,976
Now, you can either look for the third
down there, and then play it up here.
44

44

00:02:18,976  -->  00:02:21,749
Or in your mind's eye, you can see
that you're playing A-minor, so
45

45

00:02:21,749  -->  00:02:23,306
you can see that chord, see the third.
46

47

00:02:25,059  -->  00:02:25,745
Whatever way helps.

49

49

00:02:27,543  -->  00:02:28,681
And F,
50

50

00:02:28,681  -->  00:02:30,923
[MUSIC],
first, fifth, third.
51

[MUSIC]
52

52

00:02:33,429  -->  00:02:36,182
Up to G, first, fifth, okay?
53

53

00:02:36,182  -->  00:02:38,398
And you can see the third
when you look at it up here.
