Beginner

The theme of this lesson is to find something that YOU like when you play. Forget about judgement, and just listen. Find patterns that sound good, pick out melodies that sound familiar or make up new ones, experiment with different ways of striking the instrument. Try anything. Record and/or remember the things that you really like, and then later you can learn WHAT it is you played so that you can do it again, or be free to change it however you want.

Ok, I turned the camera on and decided to talk about practicing when you don't have loads of time. Then I discovered I could talk and play for about 20 minutes, so I drift off a little, but this might be of help to some of you.

Here is a quick lesson I did today on basic II V I Voicings.

Hope this is a start to get some more beginner stuff out there.
