Green's technique was to only play certain important notes of each chord. The unsounded notes were damped by the fingers of the left hand. This technique gave a 'chunky' rhythm sound without creating too much unnecessary harmonic presence that might interfere with notes sounded by other members of the orchestra. Throughout his career, Green only rarely played single note solos. EXTERNAL LINKS |
