    It was the first one I’ve been able to join too. In the UK it’s 8pm on a Saturday so not usually good for me but I’m glad I did. Tom from BC had a really useful chord chart he’d found. I’m meeting up with a lady I met for another practice together today as we found we are at a similar level & can learn from each other & have fun!
    I’m finding it…[Read more]

    Hi Jason,
    I joined and paid a year’s subscription a couple of days ago. Went through all of 1.1 lesson no problems. Today when I opened up the site again to do 1.2 I kept getting a message saying I don’t have access and to do the trial. Your method looks good and I’m keen to work through it consistently. Can you help?
    Marg.

    Joanne, you sound really good and steady, and that’s a Great first attempt as you describe it! This is certainly not an easy skill. I’ve been working on chorded double stops as well, and it’s a challenge.

    I feel so bad that I missed Saturday’s student hangout session with you guys!! Would have loved to have heard the chord chat you mention…[Read more]

    Following our chord chat at Saturday’s student hangout, here’s my first attempt at playing chords along to Jason’s backing track!
    Warning-it’s a bit pitchy😆 I’m struggling to keep the double stops even so relax by playing the tune a bit too! It’s definitely work in progress for me, I think.

      Bro I wish this was earlier in the course! I’ve always struggled with putting the individual quarters together and with being too dependent on playing through from the very beginning (i.e., if I mess up I have to start all over). I will definitely use this technique!

      Thank you so much. This is going to be very helpful in both this course and my private lessons. Learning a rather tricky piece right now, but applied chaining and it’s actually coming together.

        That’s awesome. Denise. Thanks for giving insights on your experience with this. Simple practise tools that we can get familiar with and utilize wherever 🙂 🎶

      This is suddenly a really hard tune out of the blue! Good thing I can read sharps and naturals – otherwise it would be a total loss without even a sound bite as a guide. I will keep at it though. Your lessons are really awesome and I am learning a lot.

        Thanks for sharing, Catherine. Your motivation in the challenge is great to experience. Thanks for your interest in the program!
        Simplifying more than I originally think or plan to always helps me with trickiness.

      Neat…you sort of do that with piano, too, don’t you? Great stuff!

        Hi Susieq, yes good point. Other instruments can work great with these types of exercises, like piano 🎹 Glad to hear you enjoy!

      I like the chaining idea, especially as it relates to parts of a song. I tend to want to play the whole song without really paying attention to the parts. I find it easier to do with a song I am trying to learn rather than with plain scales.

        Thanks for sharing these insights, Bill. Yea, a neat tool to utilize for deeper practise and gives a good alternate perspective to something in whole.
