This video focuses on some technique aspects of playing left hand rootless voicings smoothly and comfortably. The 3 key take aways for playing left hand voicings:
- Don't curl your middle fingers. They can play very far inside the black key area.
- Measure the ideal key spot by determining if your thumb needs to play on a black key. Generally speaking a lot of left hand voicings can be played inside the black key area.
- Make sure the arm motion feels like a down. There should be no feeling of pulling up.
