Learning a solo for “Sugar” and how to play the full song

Lesson Eight: The Final Lesson

Welcome back, everybody!

This is lesson eight, the final lesson in the course.

Overview

This is our chance to:

• Play the Head to Sugar in fifth position minor.
• Perform the solo that I've tabbed out for you.

I hope that by doing this solo, you'll grasp where I'm trying to go melodically when I play.

Melodic Improvisation

As a melodic player and improviser, I aim to write little songs within the melody. Here's my approach:

• Connect Points:
  • Point A to Point B
  • Point B to Point C
  • Point C to Point D
  • Back to where I started.

It's kind of cool in that respect!

Practice Recommendations

Give it a shot and do your best. The beauty of this is that you can practice as much as you need to.

I hope you'll develop your own ideas as time moves on.

Here we go , this is Sugar, and let's see what happens!

Your Solo

So, there you go, guys! You have plenty to practice.

That solo will be a bit of a challenge for you, but hopefully, if you:

• Go back and review all the lessons,
• Think about correct posture,
• Focus on relaxing,
• Ensure a good mouth seal,
• Practice some of those exercises we've covered,

Then just be creative, it should all fall into place for you.

Thanks a lot!
