In this lesson of two parts, we explore the 6/8 time signature on the Piano and look at various patterns to play a chord progression over the time feel. In Part 1, we look at simple approaches using a “Triplet” feel and counting “Eighth Notes” over a 3/4 meter. In Part 2, we explore accents of 6 sub beats to create a “busy” and “lazy” feel as well as irregular odd number grouping of notes.
