RYAN LARSON: Before we indulge in our tune here, I just want to take a second to really explain. We're going over more melodies today in our right hand focusing on reading melodies and taking them through all different keys. So, when we go through and explain our chords, if you search on Expert Village, "my first fake book," all these different chords will come up, and you can even search for the individual chords. If you search for "G minor piano," my first fake book for the key F will come up or E flat major. And everything is related to its major scale, that's how we found all these different chords. And you can go through and there's--just a minute on each chord and you can go through and figure out these chords rather quickly. And if you want to get more into those chords, you can watch the whole series. And again, all these information, you should run through 12 keys and really get it under your fingers. I know it takes a while but the more you do it, the more it's embedded and that's what we really have to do is get this information in your brain. So, as we go through, it might take you a while and you might have to open some extra windows looking out some different chords but it's really worth it 'cause all these information is gold.
