Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 19 2014, 02:24 PM

Hello guys! Let's add some melodic work in your diary routine. You can do it during the "Theory" & "Jamming" section.

1. Play A minor scale and sing each note while you play it. Be sure that you sing on pitch. (5 minutes)

2. Learn Am, G major and F Major arpeggios. Singe the notes while you play them. (5 minutes). Learn one arpeggio position of each chord each day. (5 minutes)

3. Play the scale over the backing of this lesson. Play it in order, then random notes, but always singing along.

4. Follow the chords of the same backing with arpeggios. Sing the notes while you play them.

5. Compose a new melody every day. The first day, compose it with your voice first and then play it in the guitar, the second day compose it directly using arpeggios and the scale with your guitar, third day voice, fourth day guitar, and so.

Feel free to post your ideas here!
