Playing Entire Song Using Piano Improvisation in F

So now that we have this whole tune under our fingers we can go through and I'm going to cross reference to one of the other plans I did. We can go through and look up F pentatonic. We're going to use the F pentatonic scale to improvise in our right hand as we play the block chords in our left hand. Nice, simple idea, and I'll show you the pentatonic scale on the piano. What it is is you take your F major and we only play one, two, and three, and four and five. And that's your F pentatonic. So we're going to go through and use this scale and play through the entire tune. And we'll use it very melodically, this is a great exercise to get yourself to start improvising. So that's a quick run through of our first tune.
