"ENCHANTING BOOGIE"
Almost all of the right-hand phrases in Enchanting Boogie consist of three single notes followed by a
four or three-note chord. Do not slur the single notes into the chords. However, be sure you do not
staccato the last note in the single note group. This is not easv and will require some careful practice.
-pm
In measures 17 and 18 (also coda), practice lifting the bottom two notes of the first chord just before
plaving the following chord in order to connect smoothlv.
