Chopin Prelude. 2 2
The Polish Dance. 3 3
And this is an easier version, but I'm gonna take you through it so 4 4
that you can see how closely related this is to chord tones. 5 5
Nearly every bar, very closely related. 6 6
So, let's go through hands separately. 7 7
So, the right hand. 8 8
So we're in an E. 9 9
[MUSIC] 10 10
So that's nearly the way you learned E7 in the first book. 11 11
There's E moved to that. 12 12
B7. 13 13
No root. 14 14
[MUSIC] 15 15
All right, A, so there's the root, there's the third. 16 16
[MUSIC] 17 17
E7, it's actually the ninth of the A, but there's the seventh of the A. 18 18
E will be played on left hand. 19 19
[MUSIC] 20 20
So the third of A then that's more or less repeating itself. 21 21
So the left hand, E. 22 22
[MUSIC] 23 23
And first and fifth of A. 24 24
[MUSIC] 25 25
E. [MUSIC] 26 26
First and fifth. 27 27
So it's straight forward. 28 28
Okay. 29 29
So I'll take you through all those cord shifts, cord tones again. 30 30
And with both hands together. 31 31
Very slowly. [SOUND] So think E first of all. 32 32
[MUSIC] 33 33
E7. 34 34
[MUSIC] 35 35
So that's that. 36 36
And your A. 37 37
Root fifth third root. 38 38
[MUSIC] 39 39
Sort of straightforward. 40 40
E again. 41 41
First fifth. 42 42
[MUSIC] 43 43
It's actually the ninth. 44 44
[MUSIC] 45 45
A. [MUSIC] 46 46
Be careful here. 47 47
You can see that that's the bottom A and 48 48
you're gonna feel as if you're gonna play like a first and a fifth again. 49 49
But it's not. 50 50
That's the root, that's the fifth. 51 51
So it's A, so it's slightly tighter there. 52 52
For the A. 53 53
[MUSIC] 54 54
We're back to E. 55 55
Seven. 56 56
[MUSIC] 57 57
A. 58 58
[MUSIC] 59 59
And balance that left hand. 60 60
First and third, right hand. 61 61
Now we're moving into the F sharp 7, okay? 62 62
So there's first, fifth. 63 63
[MUSIC] 64 64
B minor, okay? 65 65
And this is the bass line moving in the right hand. 66 66
[MUSIC] 67 67
And then we're at the A again. 68 68
[MUSIC] 69 69
A ballad left hand. 70 70
[MUSIC]
