Tiny Steps Toward Home
Whether you are playing in time or in a rubato fashion, this is effective. Also experiment with changing the quality of the chords as in the demonstration. Consider some options with that left hand, too. For example, you could establish a left-hand support by using the 1-5-3 (a tenth spread), even rolling it. By the way, the right-hand octave idea is optional, too, since you can simply “rock” back and forth between the 5 and 3. This intro can serve as a nice game-changer as you experiment with it more and more!
Intros are one of the many favorite topics discussed and demonstrated during my online Zoom sessions. If you feel compelled to give one a try, I would look forward to seeing you there : )
