Hi Everyone,

Here are your assignments for this week:

Dawson

Recommended minutes to practice: 20-30 min/day

What to practice: Play each chord in Autumn Leaves 2 ways (Root on the E string / A string). Also look at the Melody and using the sheet music to read the notes.

How to practice it most effectively: Reference files “Jazz Chords / 7 Chords” and “Ami7(b5)”. For reading the notes remember it’s E G B D F for the lines and F A C E for the spaces (bottom to top) and there’s a Bb and Eb in the key signature, so everytime you see a B or an E you’ll play Bb and Eb instead. Stick to open position (finger 1 fret 2, finger 2 fret 2, 3 3, 4 4).

Lucien

Recommended minutes to practice: 10 min/day

What to practice: 60 + 63

How to practice it most effectively: Use #60 to get warmed up and check your notes for #63. Use a metronome if you like but you can also try keeping track of the time without it.

Augustin

Recommended minutes to practice: 10 min/day

What to practice: Minuet In G

How to practice it most effectively: Use a metronome at a slow speed (50 or so).
