Now we are starting to get even lower around the keyboard, so now we have this low D right
there. So G is this bottom line, we have 1, 2, 3, 4 notes below there, so we've got our
5. It goes 5 to 2 and remember we were getting kind of low here so remember our G is right
between 2 notches down and 3 notches down so that is a 7 and then the 2 notes below
the 7 so we have a 5, 7, 4. So we've got in our right hand, we have 5, 2 then we have
5, 7, 4. Remember it's that reading, so we are not going to let these low notes bother
us. Get back to G here, 1, 3, there's a G there, so that's a 4th below the G so we have
a 5, 1, 3, then 1, 5 and you have this sharp 6. So sharp 6 to 1, 3. Remember that sharp 6
is actually an F note. It's an F. It's a white key even though it has that sharp there, it's
an F. We are going to play right now with the hands so that you can see how it goes.
So we start right here with that low 5, 2, 5, 7, 4 and we go back to 1, 3, 5, 1, 3 basic
chord. Then 1, 5 and we have a sharp 6, it's that F. So those are our next 3 measures to
start reading through, Back Prelude Number 1.
