8 Weeks of Ballads - Sentimental Mood - Skating

So here's the deal.

I wrote an etude of all eighth notes. It's important for us to be able to weave through the changes, up and down and up and down. It's important for us to move the line in seconds. We do it much more easily with 3rds, but 2nds is where the magic happens.

  • If you're going to do this right, write in the changes and study the lines.
  • Play the etude down.
  • Memorize the etude completely.
  • Throw away the music.
  • Play the etude in other keys.
  • Smile at how much you've learned

8WO Ballads

當我們在演奏敘事曲(Ballad)時,練習主弦律都要使用到外棒(右手外側)。

因為其他棒子都要伴奏。

如果不是Ballad的曲子,不要只用外側棒,因為會容易失去節奏感(rhythmic feel)。
