Do you enjoy practicing scales? For many guitarists they are a chore to practice.

I want to show you how you can love scales and also be creative with them. 

Scales are great for many different aspects of guitar playing.

But there's a little known secret about scales: they're fantastic for creating melodies with.

Check out the video to find out how you can compose melodies using scales. 

Many melodies we play in pieces like Lagrima and Spanish Romance are made from scales. With this kind of tool at your disposal, you might compose a new iconic guitar piece that's played and loved by guitarists all over!

Feel free to share your melodic ideas with me :-)

Harmonize Any Melody Quick and Easy

0 Comments

Read Now
 
We often think of harmony as a boring, dull and dry subject. 

This is a shame, because the topic of harmony opens up and develops entire realms of your playing that no other topic can.

Harmony helps with your sight reading, fretboard knowledge, technique, musical understanding and more.

So how can you learn about harmony in a fun and engaging way? 

By harmonizing a melody.

With the right tools and process, you can harmonize any melody quick and easy! 


What's the advantage of learning this?

• Learn Harmony: Harmonizing a melody teaches you the most foundational uses of harmony, while giving you a beautiful result you can play and enjoy. 

• Create: If you can harmonize fluently, you can create quickly - compose, arrange or improvise. 

• Musical Technique: Your technique gets a great workout that focuses on musical building blocks, rather than just pure mechanics. 

Happy plucking,
Daniel
