Scales: Diatonic Triads - Wide Voicings

If your instrument allows for the range and the huge jumps, practicing diatonic triads in wide voicings can be an interesting exercise. In wide voicings of triads, the middle note of the triad is played an octave higher. So instead of playing a C major triad as C-E-G, you would play C-G-E instead.
