In today's online guitar tutorial we revisit some finger patterns and rhythms. Students get to use all four fingers and solidify their understanding of the sharp.
All the pieces in this series are made easy as the student gets to imitate their teacher after working out the pitch and the rhythm of the piece. The student works out how to play the short phrases (with guidance if necessary) and imitates the teacher immediately after having heard and seen them.
Each lesson has a theme which contributes to an evolving story which unfolds as the student progresses. Today's story is about the pets of some of the characters.
