Now here are some patterns in three-four.

Practice tapping the together-left-right (TLR) patterns before breaking into the actual practice-speed performance. (The video-in-video tapping hands aren't shown this time.)

We tap-and-play in 'straight quavers' first, then with the "shuffle feel".

Three-four, Pattern One

Straight quavers

Start right hand near middle C.

Watch the video one, then study the TLR diagram below and tap it before you play the video again.

Get the tapping right before you attempt the notes.

"Shuffle feel"

Now put your 'swing quaver'/'shuffle feel' in.

Three-four, Pattern Two

Straight quavers

You can try short-cutting the process, but if it doesn't work, go straight back to the 'tapping first' method.

"Shuffle feel"

Now put your shuffle feel in.

Now go on to the second page of three-four rhythms.
