I have recorded this solo a while ago, and I thought this would be a great ear training and theory exercise.
Listen to the solo and the BT, and answer the following 3 questions: 1. What is the chord progression in the backing track? 2. What is the key of the song? 3. What method did I use for constructing the solo? (Hint for question #3: Here I am referring to some form of repetition applied in the solo. Can you find it?) My solo: http://soundcloud.com/jonastamas-hangmester/h-d-r-gisz-moll-e-d-r-fisz-d-r-sz-l-091017 Backing track: http://soundcloud.com/jonastamas-hangmester/h-d-r-gisz-moll-e-d-r-fisz-d-r-zenei-alap (Click on the black arrow to download the BT)

Spoiler: Beautifully melodic. I have no idea what overall technique you employed to construct the solo. This post has been edited by klasaine: Feb 10 2013, 07:01 PM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

Held notes and/or longer rhythms on the first half (first bar) of each chord change?

I'm not sure I'm understanding what your after - ?
You start a lot of phrases 'off' of beats one and two (usually repeated notes) followed by a longer 1/8 notes phrase off of beat 3 that continues in to the next bar(?) You also do this rhythmic and melodic pattern/sequence where you use two repeated 1/8's off beats one, two, three, four and the next one(?) The gestalt is you employ the centuries old techniques of 'playing melodically'. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

I guess I was trying to be TOO specific. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine
