Another important rhythm figure is the quarter note triplet, which is three quarter notes played in the time of two. This means it is possible to play two quarter note triplets in a bar of * time.
This is a difficult rhythm to play at first. Try working up to it by first playing a bar of eighth note triplets, then accent the parts of each beat where the quarter note triplets would fall and finally play the quarter note triplets on their own.
With any note value, it is possible to include rests as part of a rhythm figure. This rhythm part includes a commonly used chromatic run involving a bar of quarter note triplets with a rest on the first beat. This figure occurs in bar 4 of the progression. In bar 9 there is another quarter note triplet in the last half of the bar, with a rest on the third beat.
