Example: “When The Saints Go Marching In”
1.
Press the One Touch Program [ARRANGER]
button.
The Basic screen is displayed. The names of the chords
you play in the Lower section appear on the display:
2.
Press the Music Style [Big Band/Swing] button.
3.
From the list of Music Styles shown on the display,
select <Jazz Band>.
(The Style “Jazz Band” has now been selected.) After a
few seconds, the display returns to the Basic screen.
4.
Start the accompaniment by pressing the C key (see
the score for the chords to play).
As explained above, this is the easy way to play chords.
By pressing the C, you actually play a C major chord.
The Arranger will start with an eight-measure Intro.
Wait until the Intro is finished before playing the
melody.
Here are the “chords” you need for “The Saints”:
You can slow down the tempo by pressing the TEMPO
[–] button. If you think the accompaniment is too
slow, press TEMPO [+] instead.
Pressing the [+] and [–] buttons simultaneously will
return the Arranger to the default tempo of the Jazz
Band Style.
5.
At the end of the song, press the [INTRO/
ENDING] button.
If you want to play the song again, press the [SYNC]
button and play the first chord (C).
Note: There are various ways to start and stop a Style (see
“Starting and Stopping Styles” on page 26).
Once you feel you master the basic version of “The
Saints”, try adding some variation here and there.
When “To Variation” is indicated in the music, press
the [TO VARIATION] button. Of course, there is a lot
more you can do with the KR-11’s Arranger.
