Hi, Danilo here. Welcome to the tenth lesson about "Economy picking"!
Step by step we have practiced a lot of exercises, and everyone of them have helped (I hope) you to improve your ability and let you learn and play with more confidence. These exercise have not to be musical but just gymnastics, cause their job is to make your hands a better hands, simple!
Now, as your abilities grow up, try to make music by using this motions, this is the target that we have to get! Playing just to move fast your fingers is boring and sometimes stupid too, play what do you feel, the exercise are like mathematics, music is another story, music is Art!
Come in guys and kill this tenth lesson about economy picking, you serial killers of exercises! Read the explanations and start to practice hard, but with fun!
See you next time, keep on and good luck!
Thanks to everybody and to GMC
