Teaching notes –

1. This can be used for chord analysis studies
2. Students should study how the left hand chord sizes look so the difference between 7ths and 5ths can be learned, or practiced.
3. The right hand allows for studying how to look at intervals between the lower parts of the clef and those intervals that sit in the higher part of the clef. Fingerings can be devised to distinguish between using the fingers near the thumb and those near fingers 3, 4, or 5.
4. This can be a study of open harmonies – chords that are divided between both hands.
5. The second setting is more difficult. Students can study seeing 10ths and learning to roll over the 3 notes. Students with smaller hands can learn to play only the bottom 2 notes which are usually 5ths or 7ths.
6. A series of chord studies will be available in this piano area in the near future.

This arrangement was created by Bob Walters, formerly on the arranging staff of the U.S. Air Force Band (Ret) in Washington, and arranger for some military groups that play at the White House.
