Workout 4
Gilligan’s Island was a comedy TV show
that was popular from 1964–1967. The
program featured a group of seven people
who were shipwrecked on a desert island.
During each weekly episode, Gilligan,
the first mate on the SS Minnow, always
seemed to accidentally destroy any plan to
escape from the island.

it is important to have a practice plan to make learning easier.
Follow the suggestions to learn this piece:
Section A and Coda
1. Slowly block each of the triplet figures in the A sections and coda.
2.Silently “play” both A sections of the piece to practice where to
move your hands.
3.Then play the A sections slowly, as written.
Section B
4.In measures 17–22, silently “play” the notes on the first beat of
each measure, making sure you are comfortable with each move.
Then slowly play these measures as written.
5.Slowly play the 1st inversion chords in the RH of measures 23–27.
