Playing Auto Accompaniment Chords

You’ve learned in the section “Play with a Style (Accompaniment)” on page 21 that the

“feel” of the Style changes every time you play a chord on the left-hand side of the key-

board. Here, you’ll learn the types of the chords and how to play them in greater detail.

The examples of chords are given here in the key of C.

There are two basic ways (below) you can play the chords on the left-hand side of the

keyboard, while playing the Style (page 22)

■ Easy Chords

■ Standard Chords

Easy Chords

This method lets you easily play chords in the accompaniment range of the

keyboard using only one, two, or three ﬁngers.

Standard Chords
