Hi GMC and welcome to the lesson. :)
This time it is about quintuplets. Quintuplet is a group of five notes each with equal duration, but fit into duration of four. For example quintuplet of 16th notes have to have a total duration as 4 16th notes. For that reason it may be difficult to play them, but they can sound very effective.
I combined pentatonic scale in this exercise, so it can be also good for memorizing pentatonic shapes.
Key signature: A Minor Pentatonic
Time signature: 4/4
Tempo: 80 bpm
Have fun :)Dejan
