Alternating Between Triplets and 16th Notes - Geoffrey Keezer | 2 Minute Jazz

Geoffrey Keezer shows you how to spice up your solos by switching up the rhythm.=====================================================(piano music)- Hey, this is Geoffrey Keezer for Two Minute Jazz. I'm gonna talk to you about alternating between triplets and sixteenth notes. Now this is something you can do in your solos to really give some rhythmic spice, so you're not just playing eighth notes all the time. An easy way to practice, you know, get a little metronome like this, start slow, you can just do scales.(piano music)Right? Or you can do any combination of that.(piano music)But the main thing is just lock it in with that metronome, so when you're playing with a real drummer, you're locked in with the drummer's groove. You know, and then you can speed it up. Always start slow, and then go faster.(piano music)So in the context of jazz.(piano music)=====================================================Want more piano lessons with Geoffrey Keezer? Check out his brand new course, Advanced Jazz Piano Concepts, at https://www.openstudionetwork.com/ajp-overview. You can also purchase his first course, Keez to Jazz Piano, at https://www.openstudionetwork.com/project/kjp-overview/Website: https://www.openstudionetwork.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heyopenstudioTwitter: https://twitter.com/HeyOpenStudioFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/HeyOpenStudio See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
