AndrewKeymaster@lyndallk – Beautifully played with great feel throughout. Well done, Lyndall!
@concan – Your form and chord transitions look excellent. Playing sounds great, too! Well done and thank you for the kind words 🙂
@mark1256 – Excellent playing, Mark! This is one of the best performances I’ve heard from you! Great job and keep up the good work!November 16, 2021 at 8:51 pm in reply to: Participate in the November 2021 Member Challenge – WIN $2,100 Kanile’a #49285
AndrewKeymaster@rafaela – Beautifully played, bravo!
@coffeemug – Excellent playing! For rubato, check out the video I left 2 posts above for @felixhchan. It’s got tips on how to use it for this song 🙂November 15, 2021 at 9:17 pm in reply to: Participate in the November 2021 Member Challenge – WIN $2,100 Kanile’a #49278
AndrewKeymastermisterbones – Bravo, Michael! This is one of the best performances I’ve heard from you. And it’s impressive because you said you don’t play along with others that often, but when I listened to your performance there’s times where you’re so locked in with the band that it’s truly amazing. Like the ending of the 3rd song’s chorus going into the next verse at 2:30. Killer!
So here are my thoughts moving forward: Keep working on the rhythm for the fourth song. Work through it with me in the lesson, because I deep dive into it in great detail. And for the first song, slow the tempo down a little bit. See if you can get locked in a little tighter.
But again, round of applause! Brilliant job this month!
biancak – Excellent playing! Duet sounds beautiful 🙂
ccwuke – Beautiful playing! Great work, Chris 🙂
effortless – I thought your performance sounded great! Sometimes with dynamics, less is more. For example, your vibrato gave the piece a nice touch 🙂
gstriph – Excellent performance this month, Jerry! My only suggestion is to memorize it. That should help you smooth out some of the tougher chord transitions in the B Melody. But overall, this was one of the strongest performances I’ve heard from you this year. Keep up the great work!
felixhchan – Excellent take! I really like how your B melody had a unique theme. By adding a fermata at the end of every second bar, you added your own touch to the music 🙂
Now I know a lot of folks read through my feedback, so I’m going to leave a video below for those who may not be aware of how to create a theme within a performance. The video covers a different song, but you can use the suggestions on rubato for this song as well 🙂
AndrewKeymasterWelcome, Cody! Glad to have you on-board 🙂

AndrewKeymaster@planetfink – That’s so awesome! 🙂
@bomarkt – Great job! What I’d suggest working on is timing. Try looping one measure along to a click. When you can play it perfectly in time, try the next measure. Then go back and practice both to the click.And double check Theme 2. Sounds like you omitted a couple measures.

AndrewKeymasterSame issue happened for me. I’ll report it to their support team and get back to you.
In the meantime, if you have a desktop I’d recommend using that to slow it down to that speed.
AndrewKeymasterCongrats, Ulli!!! 🙂

AndrewKeymaster@gi_gi_ – What device and browser are you using? I’ll reach out to their support team to see if we can troubleshoot what’s happening 🙂
In the meantime, can you try it with a different device or browser and let me know if that works as normal?
AndrewKeymasterActually, we just finished it last week. It’ll be out the first Friday of 2022, so Jan 7 🙂

AndrewKeymaster@marlongas – Try to lift up lighter as you go into the open strings. That should cut down on the string noise.
@ukandrea – Beautifully played, Andrea 🙂 I will pass your kind words along to, Steven! -
