Piano Lesson - How to play a "Country Sixth" piano fill

[@OctiveKyla]

Awesome Lesson, gets that Country Feel by sliding onto the destination chord! “Yes, this is using the 2nd inversion of the chord so the highest/destination note you’re hitting is the third, utilizing that 6th interval.” That Slide onto the tone is at the heart of playing Country music. Thanks for posting. I’m subscribing because I’m very interested to see what other videos you have on here. Thanks again.

Some people are confused in the comments. He is talking about *intervals* , not scale degrees. It is an interval of a sixth. When you invert a third you get a sixth.

You built the 6th interval off of the 5th note of the c and f chord, but on the root of the d.

@sandyskeys It's a 6th interval in the right hand....

I wish I could see more of your left hand...

You just said it yourself, a 6th of G is E...look at his first lick he shows...he's using a sixth in his right hand based off of the G. So, the "country sixth" is based from the right hand root ,which is really the V of whatever chord change you're on, I.E. he does a C (root) in his left, his right hand is holding a G (V) then uses the E (VI of V) from there for the Eb-E.. It's important to have that G in the right hand to stabilize and open up the voicing.

Really small piano or really bigs hands

[@Sandyskeys]

Why are you calling this a country sixth? You are merely using the third of every chord in the top and gliding a half step from below.....this confuses people....the sixth of a C is "A" and sixth of a G is "E" etc....

There is value in the lesson, but the audio quality sucks. The vocal is almost unintelligible. It would help to have a separate mic for the speaker. The background echo is an annoying distraction. The quality of the information is overshadowed by the lack of some simple sound engineering.
