EKS Lesson Nine Developing minor triads
We have discussed that the keyboard player often plays using both hands at the same time. Sometimes the left and right hand need to play different things. For example, the left hand might play a triad to establish the sound of the chord, whilst the right hand plays the scale to create a melody or to improvise a tune.
Let us start this lesson with our first exercise in which we are going to play left hand triads, starting with our A minor triad. We have learned how to form this triad in our previous two lessons and we will simply play the triad down an octave in the bass clef.
