GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Ear Training Songs

Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Sep 3 2013, 09:31 AM

Hey guys - I just rediscovered this piece and I thought it's great ear training material as well as a nice technique builder since it is not a guitar oriented song, thus it might push you towards breaking some boundaries in your playing.

Do you have a song that you would like to emulate with your guitar, it being a non guitar song? Let's place them here!

Ha, ha,...... I start to put this on guitar, but I can't find the backing track. A good idea would be to do it with another orchestration but take a lot time

It will take some time indeed, but maybe you can blend the guitar over this one - for starting out with things - why not try it?

Yes, I do that but don't have the same impact

But it's a good training for ears.

Oh yes it will have a great impact, if you play in such a way as to serve the track - I always did this with the classical songs I had to learn for Mozart Rocks - try it - what do you have to lose?
