cool comme toujours
but
salut david
j ai un gros probleme depuis quelques jours!!!
c'est que j'ai l'impression de ne pas avancer dans mes répètes;je crois que je vais définitivement arreter
C'est probablement dû à mon age(62 ans)je n'arrive pas à synchroniser ma gauche avec ma droite.
tu as peut être un remède ou un petit truc mais moi je suis au bout de mon latin
merci de me conseiller ;;;;;;; stop it or continue ???

- My notes
In today's phrasing lesson, we'll develop some ideas using the principle of repetition. Whether it's a rhythm motif, a series of notes or anything else you play, repeating the same type of idea will help your lead sound more coherent and will help you draw the listener into what you are doing musically.
As you go through the following ideas, try to understand what makes it interesting to you and create something of your own using that repetitive idea you liked.
The key of the track is in A minor, we'll use A minor and A minor pentatonic scales here.
Be creative and keep it fun!
