Awesome, glad you got it. Now you have it in your pocket you can pull it out whenever you want (if you can play it in the key and feel)
Hi..Neal,
I like.. It Donβt Mean a Thing, riff by Duke Ellington. There’s a Blue note in it.
Cheers!
That’s very nice.! I like it
Thanks Ken.
great piece,but am new i could have done beta wif da fingering chart .
Hey Shaiye, thanks for letting me know what would help you. Will probably make more lessons with diagrams pretty soon. Any songs you want to learn in particular? You might want to try out learning some music by ear, good to start early with that.
great method of teaching
Thanks Glen
Hi Neal, just been trying this via ear and I can’t believe it – but when I fairly sure I checked the music score in one of my books and I was right – Keep up the good work
Thanks Des, ear training just takes some practice and you often may be better than you thought you were if you have been playing music for a little while!
Yeah! There’s a Blue note, I can hear. Cool.. Neal
Love it, but I cant pick it up just using my ear… any chance of display all the notes for alto Neal π
I have only been playing for 3 weeks
Please π
Hi Neal
I can’t open the pieces you have recently sent me. The last one is by Duke Ellington:It Don’t Mean a Thing. I would really like to listen to all the pieces you send. Is there a plan you devise ?
It’s probably an issue with your computer. Maybe clear the browser cache and make sure you have the latest flash player installed. Thanks
