Rainfall - An Improvisation Exercise
Rainfall is a lesson piece that uses 4 chords and the crossover technique to create a nice, light ambiance. Very little material is used here. Just a few chords in the Key of A Major played every 2-bars. The chords are "charted" out on a piece of paper so the player can follow the changes and improvise their own melody on top. This is actually Lesson 70 from my online piano lessons.
