Good start into G Major
Just like in the previous courses, the clear structure of scales, chords, important chord progressions and chord inversions, and finally the different grooves helped to become comfortable with the scale. I particularly like it when the teacher deviates a little from the script and adds one or two more “simple” improvisations. Thank you very much :)
Lost in a Lullaby
I can't say enough about PWJ Foundational Courses! Key of G Major was just more of the same! I am really enjoying the teaching approach used at PWJ - learning scales and the related diatonic chords and their inversions all done in the context of learning simple, accessible, but not silly, songs. In addition to learning the theory of each new Key, exercises are carefully crafted to develop two-hand coordination. Finally, rhythm, which is often overlooked in some learning approaches, is always being addressed as well. I love these courses! Best investment I have ever made in my musical journey! Thanks guys!!
Middle is the hardest
Love the accompanying patterns. I find the third lesson the hardest.
Excellent!
Follows the same pattern as other scale courses. Loved the score!. Very satisfying to play
