I had an email come in today from one of our members, Tim. This question involved timing and playing baroque style music. I thought the question and response could be helpful for others. Let me know if anyone has any questions 🙂

Original Question
Hi Andrew,
I am a paying member of RockClass101. I am enjoying so far what I have tried.
I have goofed around on uke for a long time and can form many chords. I can also do some travis picking (currently practicing etude 5).
I would say that I am a beginner on the verge of becoming a novice.
One of the things I have difficulty in doing is keeping the proper time and strumming.
That’s why I have tried some chord melody stuff.
Anyway do you have any suggestions for me on which songs to tackle from your site that would help me get to the baroque music?
Once again thank you.
Tim C
