Bach Air on a G String. 2 2
You probably heard this tune many times, probably on a TV ad. 3 3
It's well known for its left hand baseline, octave baseline. 4 4
[MUSIC] 5 5
And so on. 6 6
The right hand melody. 7 7
[MUSIC] 8 8
So a few things to think about. 9 9
When you're playing the bass line, notice the first part of the octave and 10 10
then look ahead to the next part. 11 11
When I play the C, I know I'm going up to the C. 12 12
So look at the B, I know I'm going down to the B, so look at the A, and so on. 13 13
So look ahead of yourself cuz you've time. 14 14
[MUSIC] 15 15
So I'm already looking at the F, I'm already looking at the E, 16 16
I'm already looking at the D. 17 17
[MUSIC] 18 18
And so on. 19 19
In the right hand the first two bars, notice that 20 20
[MUSIC] 21 21
top two notes are tied, that means they're held for the two bars. 22 22
The bottom note moves up from the G to the A. 23 23
[MUSIC] 24 24
Okay. 25 25
So just try it very slowly. 26 26
[MUSIC] 27 27
In this bar, notice that it goes from the [SOUND] G down to a B flat. 28 28
[SOUND] Back to the G. 29 29
[SOUND] If you can lock your hand there, 30 30
you'll not be wondering where to go back to. 31 31
[MUSIC] 32 32
And so on.
