What would I do without you – drew holcomb and the neighbors@misswhitnum – Check out this post for tips on how other members approach memorizing.
Check out the 2nd video on this page and jump 6 minutes into it to learn how to use the tab player 🙂
To answer your question: Synthetic is a computer play-back of the music, which also allows you to activate a metronome. That video covers this too.
@misswhitnum – Bravo! I’m super impressed, that’s amazing progress for 4 months of playing! Have you played an instrument before?
Left hand form looks great. Your tone is soft and sweet, perfect for the vibe of this piece. The only thing I can suggest is to memorize it. That way you can focus 100% on how you are playing it; which was the big takeaway of this lesson.
If you watch/read through some of the feedback I left members from earlier this month, I talk about how Rubato plays a big role in this piece. That may be something you may want to experiment with.
Becky’s right, big difference! Especially that 3rd melody. You’ve matched the correct feel and now this piece has a hauntingly beautiful timbre. Well done!
BTW, what amp are you playing through? Reverb sounds good!
Welcome, Ripley! Very cool to see you stared with Berny, she rocks 🙂
I hope you 2 join us for this month’s challenge as JP is one of the choices.
bzediver – Great job! Here are my thoughts 🙂
surfnrz – WOW, Ray! That was awesome! I can tell you put a lot of work into this, and it shows 🙂
So yes, I’d agree with cleaning up some of your playing. Target the areas where the chords buzzed – in your case, I think when this happens, it’s because not enough pressure is being applied when fretting, resulting in some notes buzzing. Keep that in mind as you continue working on it.
The other suggestion I have is to try a lighter strum during “The Imperial March” and especially in “May the Force Be With You”. Matt talked a lot about this, specifically with the thumb approach, in a recent live lesson.
Yes, for uke music.
You would play those notes on uke. So bar 1, the D would be 2nd fret, string 3. For bar 2, those notes fall on strings 1 and 2.
Unfortunately , this is as far as I can take you, as this falls outside of our support. But this is something Stephen could help you with in a Skype lesson.
If the A note is intended to be played an octave up (12th fret), you’ll see 8va notated above the staff. Definition: This indication is most often found above specific notes on a staff and indicates that those notes should be performed one octave higher than written.
To indicate to perform the same note on the 5th fret, string 2, a roman numeral (in this case V) would be written above the staff and a line can be extended from that to indicate to continue to play out of that position if needed.
This extension line is also used for 8va. (Sub 8va with V for example 2)
