Hello guys!! Welcome to my new collaboration! This time I will share a backing inspired in Neoclassical Power Metal bands like Stratovarius and Sonata Artica. This is an audio collab, so everybody that has the possibility to record audio can join.
 This backing is in E minor but you have to alternate between the scales E minor aeolian and E hamonic minor. The chord progression is: E5 - E (+5) - B5 C5 - D5 - G D/F# - E5 - D5 C5 - D5 - B5 You can use E minor all the time excepting when the chord B5 is sounding. There you have to use E harmonic minor.   Deadline: May 3rd. (14 days) Who is in? This post has been edited by Gabriel Leopardi: Apr 19 2012, 05:36 PM

This will be really cool, the backing track is really awesome, but I think it's too hard for me, and I have no improvisation/writing skill for the moment :/

This is just an AWESOME backing man, just killer. I've enjoyed your backing tracks in the past but this really takes it to a new level. It's honestly a perfect backing. Just begs for some serious riffage. I think I may have seriously overplayed but it seemed to work
Hope you guys dig it!http://soundcloud.com/techniqueswithtodd/neoclassical-collaboration

Final take! As we talked in my thread I did change those notes around to fit better into the transition. I ended up playing the whole part differently and look forward to your thoughts on it. I like it better myself, although one note was muted near the end of the run.

Can I get a Guitar pro file of the backing track????
I've got the main feel of how I'll do the solo..... but need to figure out the right notes in front of the right chord... So that I'll play 'em like I mean 'em -------------------- Play with emotion. Playing with all technique and no emotion makes you boring. And most importantly, Make faces while bending.
