I'd like to check hear a couple of the crossover cats try this. Maybe Phillipe Mace from France? He's a great classical player and jazz player. And really great technique, IMHO.

Here's an etude with 2 parts. Dampening and then working on the left hand. It's short so it shouldn't require a lot of time to learn

A short simple etude that covers three aspects of chordal playing. The block chords. Playing a chord with a grace note and playing a chord and dampening a line underneath it. Short but challenging. Reminds me of a fanfare in a way.

Pivot Chords are a great way to work on key stuff. I got the idea from Bill Evans. I liked the way he modulated different tunes and tried to make my own up. Here's how he changes key at the end of Here's that Rainy Day.

A chance to practice stride over the holidays. A chance to get some free mallets. A chance to get David Friedman into the Christmas spirit (and possibly convert him)
