This class will take a look at note patterns and several excellent tunes that use them. Becoming familiar with these patterns allows you to group and grasp tunes much more quickly, play them more musically, and retain them more easily.
We’ll work with Technique Video Group 4, which has a variety of animated scales (major, minors, pentatonics), arpeggios, and common 4-note patterns, plus the “Great Scale Tunes” including Reel de Montreal (G and D major), Miss Shepherd (A harmonic minor), Spootiskerry (G pentatonic), and Auld Lang Syne (G pentatonic). In addition to online live classes, you get online backup, so you can always work on any of these tunes at your own pace using the interactive sheet music and teaching videos.
