Great fun
Really enjoyed this and looking forward to the other 3. Now have a memorised repertoire of Canon, Darko and Lullaby. Despite trying for years I have never memorised anything before .
fun
beautiful melody, fun with inversions
Fun in G
Excellent course!
The Major Scales
Yannick is an excellent instructor and I have learned so much about the different chords, inversions, and how to improvise. I have not played in years so went back to the beginner courses which has been extremely helpful! First week with the course and love it. Jonny's music is very beautiful to play. I go back to each lesson and use as part of my practice routine.
Key of G is Great!
Terminology was super. Diatonic chords based on the scale and building chords on thirds. Memorizing chord numbers instead of letters seemed easier and it's a great suggestion. Adding little slides in the right hand to improvise with your melody. Jonny's lullaby is a great original. Played lots of simple chord progressions in different keys. Very good course.
