@the_bumble_bard I can only imagine the practice on Funk Jam. Good luck. I’m sure you’ll do it justice. 😊
I appreciate the kudos. We all need feedback. I spent two hours this morning trying to get a descent recording only to try again later. I know I’m not alone out there. However,the benefit of all this is I know I’ve improved and that makes me happy 😃
Btw, I loved Matt’s lesson on John Lennon Imagine. Going to work on that once my fingers get a day or two rest 😆I AM A PREMIUM MEMBER
I chose the Rhythmic Variation EP010 because I wanted to work on smoothing the change in variations. It Wasn’t easy. So much harder than I thought and with out the Tab player, I could not have gotten through it at all, and it certainly needs more work. Here’s my Spicy take. 🙂
Thanks Andrew. You really pulled out the groove this month.

@TBB I just found the tabs you linked for the 8note opus 9 and yikes those stretches are tough. I tried it with a low g. Not sure you used that but gave it a rich sound. Of course I played it a “10” 😆. More administration for YOU getting through it. I may continue. I’ll have to watch your fingering more if I do. Kudos
Sorry @the_bumble_bard read above… not ttb 😁
@jody_hendrickson and @the_bumble_bard without the tab player there is no way I would get through rhythm variation 13> and chucking in EP010. Already a LOT of hours. The tab player allows my ear to hear it. I was getting really confused with Andrews lesson after the basic strum. Harder than I thought but sticking with it. Can’t wait to hear your “funk” ladies.
@gstriph nicely played and good luck with move. New beginnings 😊🎼
@sarahmusic your video is listed private on YouTube
Need to change to unlistedHi there! Finally getting time to see other performance’s. @TBB I love this Spanish Romance. So pretty. Your acoustic sound great… like you’re around water :). Excellent entry this month too on Etude 1. @gi_gi you too. Congrats on Andrew featuring your entry. So cool being recognized. Any encouragement feeds the soul and keeps us playing. Keep posting @TBB. Love your entries and fun spirit. Btw I call your wardrobe “cozy clothes “ usually a must by 5:00 😉
@andrew as always, thank you for positive feedback. I like idea of using one finger strum in first section Etude 32, and B using three. My original problem was the three but I’ll work at it.
I don’t know about other but this month I felt nothing was going smoothly. My fingers felt so unconnected then previous challenges. Like a mental block….
@dianna I agree with a way to give thumbs up. So many amazing entries and we know the amount of practice going into these. Glad im retired but life still interferes. 😉@morrieuke1 what a gorgeous Uke! Congrats. Just love the tenor sound and nicely played.
This is my second video
I couldn’t give up on Etude 32 so I mixed it up and tried the one-finger strum approach.
Both videos need more work but I loved the tunes so much and all the entries made me want to keep trying.
so here is Etude 32
Thank you Andrew and Stephen for amazing music
Rock Class really does ROCK!!!!

I am going to submit two video’s.
I started learning Etude 32 but I struggled with the strumming pattern and didn’t think I could complete it. I couldn’t get the tune out of my head… loved it.
So I started Etude Fingerpicking. It wasn’t an easy piece either but here is my submission.
Louisa@shmu88. Wow very nice. Sitting here practicing… admiration and inspiration 😊
@Andrew now that I’ve gone to lessons “free lessons” or “concept” I don’t see “recent lessons” in the sidebar . It lists beginner… low g….duet to mention a few with a check box but nothing like you explained. I must be missing something? Louisa
