Transposed Tunes With Fourth Finger
Let’s visit with some old friends to help us learn something new. We transpose melodies you’ve already learned. This will help you to practice the fourth finger. I recommend that you first review the tune as you originally learned it. Then learn the transposed version.
Practice these with the drone tracks.
