One Easy Left Hand Comping Trick - Peter Martin | 2 Minute Jazz

Peter Martin shows you a simple left hand comping technique that
can add another layer of groove to your playing using only the
root-5, 6, and 7.


========================================================


What's goin' on, everybody? Peter Martin here for Two Minute
Jazz. Just wanted to throw one little left hand technique. We got
a lotta cool things we can do over Chick Corea's "Spain" to get
that groove going.


But one that I realized I do sometimes, kinda wish I did it more,
is just the concept of root and five, root and six, and root and
seven. Real simple little melodic play.


So it's just a little bit of a melodic concept. And you know, you
gotta check on each chord which ones of 'em sound good, some of
'em sound better than others. But you can do 'em on almost every
chord.


And you know, different orders, playing around with them, but
it's just a little bit of a melodic play, little countermelody
thing to get a little action in the left hand that's a little
different than some other things.


All right, have fun. Happy practicing.
