dope song left hand patters extremely difficult takes a ton of time but rewarding
love the donnie darko interpolation
More and more exciting
The exercices are enough difficult to enforce you to work hard and at the moment you are desperate because you fail and fail again, a miracle arrive !!! the fingers do what you want
Great tune
I really enjoyed the course. Just as structured as the first course and with a nice catchy melody that reminded me of “MAD World”. The further you progress, video after video, the more fun you have with what you've learned. I'm now looking forward to the next step.
Fun and a bit challenging
Nice intro. I like it goes step by step
A Light in the Darko!
Much like the Course on C Major, this course combines a thorough introduction to the Key of A Minor covering Natural, Harmonic & Melodic Minor scales, all of the Chords generated by these 3 scales, typical Chord Progressions, Chord Inversions and a challenging, but fun, original song to combine all of these skills in a meaningful and realistic application. By the end of the Course, I felt very confident playing material in the Key of A Minor!
