Lesson transcript

Challenge: Create Your Own Melody

So again, just to give you a little bit of a challenge, why don't you:

  • Take one of the improvisation examples from the PDF that's available for download.
  • Record a melody of your own that you've come up with.
  • Loop it round a few times.
  • Vary up the embellishment that you're using to play that melody.

Then, send it in to us!

We can have a listen to it and give you some feedback on it.

It would be great to hear from you!
