with Matt

Arpeggios Scales and Patterns for Improvisation

What my class is about:

What arpeggios scales and patterns can be used over various chord progressions to make your solos interesting. We will explore how to bridge the gap between simple finger exercises and fluid, professional phrasing. You will discover how to target the "sweet notes" within any chord to create a sophisticated, melodic sound. By mastering these specific movements, you can stop guessing which notes to play and start building solos with confidence and character.

Why I’m an ideal instructor:

How class will be conducted:

Students will have their instrument there so they can try different ideas as well as record the session to practice later.
