11.47One practical jazz accompaniment pattern

For a slow tune:

LH:

root on beat 1

RH:

shell/extension on beat 2 or just after beat 1

Then leave space.

For:

Dm7:

LH D

RH F-C-E

G7:

LH G

RH F-B-E

Cmaj7:

LH C

RH E-B-D

Don't constantly repeat the chord.

Jazz accompaniment—comping—often uses rhythmic space.
