ARPEGGIOS

(BROKEN CHORDS)

Arpeggio practice is very important because you get to know your chords a lot
better and it enables you to improvise with greater confidence.

Basically an ARPEGGIO is running up and down the notes of a chord over one or
more octaves.

The correct fingering is the key to success.

Try the chord of C to begin with.
