Good basics
This is a good place to start. It took me way more time to complete than I thought it would, but I still got it done in a week.
Love Canon in C Major
I loved this lesson and like how you can do the root chord or an inversion. I'm still trying to put it all together and get the inversions memorized and have it feel more natural. I love the Cannon in C Major that ties it together. Beautiful. I really want to memorize this song
Challenging yes, Fun yes!!
I enjoyed this course. The instructor was patient and provided good insights into the lesson. I enjoyed the pace of the course. Well done.
well worth the effort
Really enjoyed the course! Getting both hands to do different things was and still is a challenge.
Fun
Nice verse of Pachelbel's cannon.
