Learn this. Memorize it and then we can talk about it!
I made this for my student Dan Neville. We did out last lesson last month and we wanted to end it with a couple duos.
I did two duos, but I'm not happy with the other one. I'll post this one for now.
Also, I didn't post the second part. I always play both parts to see if I can play along with the track. If I can then I know the time is ok. This is ok. But I won't post the second part hear. This way to you it has no other part to influence you.
This etude is deceptively SUPER hard!!! I think when we have chord melodies, we rely heavily on our knowledge of voicings, and that helps guide us through tunes.
But when you do something with two voices, it's almost like there's more to think about in some strange way. Anyway, try this etude to see whatI'm talking about :)
I posted a lesson recently where I posted the voicings and you guys supply the rhythms. Here is an etude of my rhythms and chords.
You put the chords in. It will help you memorize them. Note the upper partials and add them in as well. Play the etude!
Day 3: You will notice some open position chords in this progression. They are on the ii-V part. The tonic chords are still closed. Make note of the crunchiness in the closed chords.
