Playing Auto Accompaniment Chords
You’ve learned in the section “Play with a Style (Accompaniment)” on page 23 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 24)
