Page o’ coordination: Afro 6/4 – triplets

Here we have our standard Afro-Cuban bell pattern extended a couple of beats to put it in 6. This page will work well with that Jimmy Garrison loop from the other day. Pairs well with a couple of pages of similar stuff in 9/8 from 2014, too.

Run each pattern many times. I like to move my left hand around while practicing these pages— either every note, or on every single or double. I find it’s good to vary your technique, dynamics, and timbres of all the parts.
