Let’s get right to work with this month’s online classroom. In the past, I’ve given you one-fingered bass notes to play on your left hand. In this lesson, I will give you three-fingered left hand voicings so that you’ll get used to playing “bigger” chords. These progressions will also be in the key of Db major: NOTES IN PARENTHESIS ( ) DON’T NECESSARILY HAVE TO BE PLAYED IF YOU CAN’T REACH THEM. #1
Left hand C + G + Bb (“7″) |
Right hand Eb + G + Bb + D + (F) |
| F + C + Eb (“3″) | A + Db + Eb + Ab |
| Bb + F + Ab (“6″) | Ab + C + Db + F + (Ab) |
| Eb + Bb + Db (“2″) | G + C + Db + F + (A) |
| Ab + Eb + Gb (“5″) | Gb + Bb + B + Eb |
| Db + Ab + B (“1″) | F + Bb + B + Eb |
After the “1″ chord, it is common to go to a “4″ chord:
Left hand: Gb + Db + F / Right hand: F + Bb + Db
or…
Left hand: Gb + Db + F / Right hand: Bb + Eb + F Bb
