My Goals with you will be to get a really good knowledge of harmony and applying it to interesting compositions, mainly looking at the chord side of things but things like how chord choices can change the feel of a melody line.
Whilst I say I don't like Jazz I do like Ted Greene's chord melody, I think it's facinating to watch and listen to. I would like to use what I learn in music that wouldn't be seen as strictly Jazz or fusion, I'm more of a fan of Rock, Punk and Folk, but if it's needed to help achieve my goal I'll head that way. I do love some of the Jazzy gospel stuff I've come across and soul stuff. Weaknesses are technique and speed, maybe phrasing Strengths Fingerpicking Pretty good ear training Melodic sense Players I like are (tough question this) Andy Timmons Paul Gilbert Ludovico Einaudi (pianist/Composer) Tom Bukovac Phil X Pete Thorn Paul Jackson Jr -------------------- My SoundCloud

I am glad to have you on board! To start I would like you to work on your hands coordination and technique! Usually right hand is fine and the left hand is the trouble one! I have a perfect exercise that will do the trick! Here is the tab:
Guitar Pro Hands_workout.gp5 ( 4.5K ) Number of downloads: 155 Practice it at a very slow tempo with a metronome! You will se results very fast! In a few days we will start getting into improvisation the exercise won't be strictly jazz or fusion I will come up with something cool! Let me know if you have any questions or need help! -------------------- |

Just getting the piece flowing, should have a take for you in the next couple days.
The 8th notes to triplets is the hardest bit, I keep questioning my timing even when I'm on the beat. -------------------- My SoundCloud

Alex what do you mean? the tempo of my track? That I'm not sure I didn't play to a click so it's a little rubato (I had to look that word up!)
