Continuing on with the Elvin exercise we looked at on Monday, we can also play just two voices per cycle through the ride cymbal pattern. Remember, we're simply using our left hand and both feet to fill in the triplets not being played on the ride. By using only two voices each time we're left with doubles on each voice.
I don't feel this is necessarily any more difficult or any easier than the three-voice interpretation, but rather is just a different sound, and certainly gives us a lot more variations to experiment with.
