Music Lesson: Combining Note Values
Looking at example three of POP part two, this is combining note values we've looked at previously.
Overview
- Bars 1, 2, and 3: You have a quarter note rest on the second beat.
- If we just clap that, you'll have:
1, 2, 3, 4- The same again for the next two bars.
- If we just clap that, you'll have:
- Bar 4: We have our half notes.
- Bar 5: A whole note at the end.
Gradual Slowdown
We're gradually getting slower in terms of our picking:
- Counting:
1, 2, 3, 4
1, 2, 3, 4
1, 2, 3, 4
1, 2, 3, 4
1, 2, 3, 4
Pitches
We've seen all of these pitches before:
- Start off with the open E.
- Move to the third on the A string, which is C.
- Then to the second, which is B.
Finger Placement:
- Use your ring finger for the third fret and your middle finger for the second fret (3 and 2).
Consistency in Practice
- Bar two and bar three will be the same as aforementioned.
- This is building the stamina in our fingers and our concentration to play the same thing over and over again, just like riffs do in the real world.
Bars 4 and 5
- Bar 4: With our half notes, we have the open D (which we've learned in previous examples), going to C (third fret on the A string), followed by the open E string.
- Bar 5: This is our whole note.
- Counting for these last two bars:
1, 2
1, 2
1, 2, 3, 4
- Counting for these last two bars:
Putting It All Together
Let's try sticking that all together really, really slowly, making sure we're getting all the rhythms and counting as we go:
1, 2, 3, 4
1, 2, 3, 4
1, 2, 3, 4
1, 2, 3, FOUR
1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4
Tips for Practice
If this is too quick for you at the minute, go at your own pace.
- Slow it right down as long as you're counting and tapping your foot.
- That's what really matters!
