Yeah, that's a nice chord. I like that G chord and the G scale. I feel very comfortable to me. Yeah. So we're starting out with just a really basic level improvising and a duet between the bass and the piano. And the bass and the piano have a lot of ground in common in terms of the notes.

So it can be a really powerful thing to play together and traditionally It gives the piano player a nice break because the the piano player when there's no bass player is usually playing only accompaniment because it has the range. But as soon as you have a bass involved, it frees up the piano player to think about playing the piano differently. So what are some of the ways you think about it? Well, you're exactly right Todd with with the left hand, usually I'm playing genome in the bass, but he's taking care of that role now. So my left hand become a core player. And I can just play a chord here is my my beginner level, close chord.

And then that frees up my right hand to explore simple melodies. And at first I just was playing simple doremi stuff. Actually repeated the G itself a lot time a long time so that it would help us really anchor to like what it's like we're building g train station before we before we leave the station. So we really established with your friend like that, that. Yeah, you run the same knowledge or in the same key And you can practice up your scale. You know, and make sure that you know you're you got the right notes visually ready to go for the trip.

Yeah, and in a beginner level with with playing in a duel as a bass player, I'm thinking a lot about just sticking on the lowest g that I can play because sound really works a lot the same way that gravity does in the universe. So like the sun is the heaviest thing in our solar system, and everything is spinning around it. And if the sun all of a sudden wasn't the heaviest thing anymore, that every planets rotation would change, everything would change about the solar system. So I don't I don't have to think about being super busy. It's just sort of, again, laying that foundation where we're our ears and everything are kind of centering around this idea, like play some different ribbons. So we hear that g as if it's the sun and the other planets would be like the other notes, the rain, I don't know.

The the the Dory, the Raimi Faso, Laci. And so as he's as the base Players laying down the sun, it frees me up to I feel like I'm on a spaceship flying around to different planets in the solar system. So and then at the end of usually at the beginning and ending of a beginner improv the, you're going to want to start on G and you're going to want to end on the on G so that it's, it's like you've come full circle, yeah, back home. And what we're largely doing is something called a soundscape which is like painting a picture, but very abstract. So we might be painting with both hands and shapes and circles, and we're sort of coloring outside the lines. So you don't have to think too much about do I know enough to be able to make music with another person.

It's just a matter of making a sound and reacting and listening and expressing your feelings through sound and that doesn't have to be all that complicated
