My favorite key
You learn the most used progressions
It was challenging in the beginning, but it was fun
I enjoyed the last lesson the most. The change of rhythm was great. I learn this faster than the previous lessons. It could be I love the syncopated sound.
great approach to Bb Key
Progress the scales while learn and master the different approaches to the little song. Very well designed. Thank you
Fabulous
Nice work team PWJ
Challenging but fun "eventually" 🤣
Great course that brought some great new challenges that stumped me for ages but well worth it when revisited weeks later. The format is great too as it builds more memory.
