Music Lesson

I'll go through this slowly and then we'll do it up to tempo with the backing.

Lesson Breakdown

  1. Kick Off

    • First finger over with an A above it.
    • Second finger with an A above it.
    • Fourth finger with an A above it.
  2. Transition to Third Position

    • Moving into third position, start with the first of a second.
    • Second finger with an E above it.
  3. G Natural

    • We have a G natural:
      • First finger over, with a little hammer on.
    • This signifies the A7.
    • Transitioning from first over third into third position.
  4. Finger Placement

    • Leave the first finger where it is and bring your third finger down.
    • Staying in third position, move two over and two down to first position.

Practice Phrase

Let me give you that last phrase again:

1, 2, 3, 4.

Okay, try that a few times, and let's see if we can do it up to tempo with the backing.
