00:00:00,004  -->  00:00:06,398
10ths Ballad Style I VI IV V
Sequence C A minor F and G.
2

2

00:00:06,398  -->  00:00:09,592
And you can see what looks
like a musical notation.
3

3

00:00:09,592  -->  00:00:11,159
[MUSIC],
4

4

00:00:11,159  -->  00:00:12,737
2 and 3 and 4.
5

5

00:00:12,737  -->  00:00:15,977
1 and 2 and 3 and 4.
6

6

00:00:15,977  -->  00:00:20,390
1 and 2 and 3 and 4, and so on.
7

7

00:00:21,450  -->  00:00:24,270
And then you can try to
improvise with the right hand.
8

8

00:00:25,930  -->  00:00:28,143
Now you can just stick to
chord tones at the minute.
9

9

00:00:28,143  -->  00:00:31,419
So, C
[MUSIC].
10

10

00:00:31,419  -->  00:00:34,942
It's no harm just using those chord tones,
they're definitely safe notes for
11

11

00:00:34,942  -->  00:00:36,020
your improvisation.
12

12

00:00:36,020  -->  00:00:41,725
And it's good practice to actually just
use chord tones to begin with because then
13

13

00:00:41,725  -->  00:00:47,280
you'll have to think about being melodic
and structured with the chord tones.
14

14

00:00:47,280  -->  00:00:48,800
And then everything else is a bonus.
15

15

00:00:48,800  -->  00:00:54,071
So with C, [SOUND] you can
start on the third perhaps.
16

16

00:00:54,071  -->  00:00:56,938
[MUSIC]
17

17

00:00:56,938  -->  00:00:57,960
Down to the A minor.
18

18

00:00:57,960  -->  00:00:59,736
[MUSIC]
19

19

00:00:59,736  -->  00:01:01,212
All right?
20

20

00:01:01,212  -->  00:01:05,912
[MUSIC]
21

21

00:01:05,912  -->  00:01:06,841
Okay, something like that.
22

22

00:01:06,841  -->  00:01:09,265
And if you don't know where to go next,
23

23

00:01:09,265  -->  00:01:14,051
you can automatically go to the F if you
want because that's your next chord.
24

24

00:01:14,051  -->  00:01:15,595
[MUSIC]
25

25

00:01:15,595  -->  00:01:16,918
It's going to work because
it's a chord tone.
26

26

00:01:16,918  -->  00:01:20,648
And then you may not want to be so
obvious the next time, but
27

27

00:01:20,648  -->  00:01:23,711
you can go to the root but
you can bounce onto it so
28

28

00:01:23,711  -->  00:01:26,636
[MUSIC],
29

29

00:01:26,636  -->  00:01:27,471
onto the G.
30

30

00:01:27,471  -->  00:01:32,312
[MUSIC]
31

31

00:01:32,312  -->  00:01:33,159
Back to the third.
32

32

00:01:33,159  -->  00:01:37,559
[MUSIC]
33

33

00:01:37,559  -->  00:01:40,892
Then you can bounce up, and that'll take
you away out of the more structured.
34

34

00:01:40,892  -->  00:01:46,812
[MUSIC]
35

35

00:01:46,812  -->  00:01:47,800
That's the third of F.
36

36

00:01:47,800  -->  00:01:57,714
[MUSIC]
37

37

00:01:57,714  -->  00:02:03,280
Something simple, just keep it simple but
thing in terms of making melodies for now.
