Jordan Rudess' alternatives to the ice bucket challenge - 08/31/14 01:40 AM
To those who are not familiar with Jordan Rudess - he is best known as the keyboard player for the progressive rock band, Dream Theater. He is bald and has a long goatee. He also has ridiculous classical and jazz chops.
He is posting keyboard skills challenges instead of ice bucket challenges. The one he posted today is to arpeggiate C7 then Ddim, alternating inversions, left hand starting at the root with the pinky, arpeggiating up, right hand also starting with the pinky, arp-ing down.
They are on his facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/jordanrudessofficial
What is very interesting is that he endorses several keyboard manufacturers, but he keeps showing these challenges playing a Casio piano.
Anyways, enjoy the challenge.
