Lesson #19: Giant Steps Polyrhythmic Etude


In todays lesson we're taking a look at a polyrhythmic etude I wrote out over John Coltrane's Giant Steps.  The right hand is playing rhythmic figure in 7 eight notes against the left hand's 4.  The right hand's 7 eighth notes are represented by a grouping of two quarters and one dotted quarter.  The left hand's grouping of 4 eight notes is represented by one half note.
