Each key has a family of chords. 6 6
C family chords. 7 7
[MUSIC] 8 8
C, D minor, E minor, F, G, A minor, B diminished. 9 9
[MUSIC] 10 10
So now you can practice these as broken chord patterns. 11 11
C, Dm, Em, F, 12 12
G, Am, Bdim, C. 13 13
[MUSIC] 14 14
This teaches you the chord and helps you learn some interesting melodic patterns. 15 15
[MUSIC] 16 16
You can practice the patterns on the page both hands separately, or 17 17
hands together, if you feel brave enough. 18 18
I'll show you that later. 19 19
You just move up through the family chords in the right hand 20 20
[MUSIC] 21 21
If you follow the sight reading carefully. 22 22
[MUSIC] 23 23
And so on. 24 24
Left hand is just going to play the root note just before that. 25 25
[MUSIC] 26 26
And back down. [MUSIC] 27 27
And you can either play just one finger in the left hand, or play it as a scale. 28 28
[MUSIC] 29 29
The left hand worked good. 30 30
It'll just be the same, but using the left hand. 31 31
[MUSIC] 32 32
Then the right hand. 33 33
[MUSIC] 34 34
And as I was saying, you can practice them both together if you wish. 35 35
The both patterns in right hand and the left hand at the same time. 36 36
[MUSIC] 37 37
Don't forget to check the box at the bottom of the page as you complete each 38 38
key, cuz you don't want to keep repeating just everything in the key of C.
