Music Sample

Watch this performance of Novela. Note how his left-hand arm weight aligns in front of each broken chord note played instead of keeping a tense open-hand position. Imitate the same arc motion as you play.

The movement is similar to the "Can Opener" in this video although different notes are played  (starting at 48 seconds).

Improvisation

Watch the sample improvisation video "Novela Meets Heart and Soul" and then create your own piece using a similar "arpeggio conversation" style as in Novela.
