00:00:04,568  -->  00:00:07,336
First of all, a recap on book two.

00:00:07,336  -->  00:00:09,586
Book two you learned
various left-hand rhythms.

00:00:13,545  -->  00:00:14,795
Triad Blues.

10

00:00:25,128  -->  00:00:26,503
You also learned the twist rhythm.
11

00:00:26,503  -->  00:00:30,711
[MUSIC]
12

12

00:00:30,711  -->  00:00:37,170
On top of those rhythms you added in,
right hand chords C, F, G, in repositions.
13

00:00:37,170  -->  00:00:46,753
[MUSIC]
14

14

00:00:46,753  -->  00:00:50,461
So now, it's time to make right
hand chords a bit more interesting.
15

15

00:00:50,461  -->  00:00:55,371
So first of all, what we can do is
instead of just playing piano basic triad
16

16

00:00:55,371  -->  00:00:57,128
chords in the right hand.
17

17

00:00:57,128  -->  00:01:00,503
We can introduce some seventh's and
some inversions.
18

18

00:01:00,503  -->  00:01:03,628
We'll keep the C the same.
19

19

00:01:03,628  -->  00:01:09,628
Change the F, root position to F middle 7.
20

20

00:01:09,628  -->  00:01:12,837
And we'll change the G to G backwards.
21

21

00:01:12,837  -->  00:01:17,157
This will actually make it easier for you
to play over your left hand patterns cuz
22

22

00:01:17,157  -->  00:01:20,003
your hand's not gonna have
to jump up about so much.
23

23

00:01:20,003  -->  00:01:30,003
[MUSIC]
24

24

00:01:34,628  -->  00:01:39,836
So now, we're gonna play these chords
with what is called an off-on rhythm.
25

25

00:01:39,836  -->  00:01:43,571
First beat, is as if you are taking
adequately off the case,
26

26

00:01:43,571  -->  00:01:45,336
you snap the chord quickly.
27

27

00:01:45,336  -->  00:01:48,628
Second beat, is if you are placing your
chord back on and it's held for longer.
28

28

00:01:48,628  -->  00:01:53,420
[MUSIC]
29

29

00:01:53,420  -->  00:01:57,264
And you'll notice that I have alternated
where the first right hand beat of
30

30

00:01:57,264  -->  00:01:59,836
each bar comes in, so
you can practice both ways.
31

31

00:01:59,836  -->  00:02:06,253
So on the next page, the right hand
chord riffs off-on blues, triad blues.
32

32

00:02:06,253  -->  00:02:07,586
So start the left hand.
33

33

00:02:07,586  -->  00:02:17,586
[MUSIC]
34

34

00:02:38,878  -->  00:02:42,645
And then, on the following page,
you've got the off-on boogie,
35

35

00:02:42,645  -->  00:02:44,045
straight eight boogie.
36

36

00:02:44,045  -->  00:02:45,795
And again, start with the left hand.
37

37

00:02:45,795  -->  00:02:55,795
[MUSIC]
38

38

00:03:13,086  -->  00:03:17,879
The next page is the off-on shuffle,
the 12/8 shuffle.
