Walking the Trestle |
slower
with clicks |
This one has a tick track to show you the replacing. Where
ever you hear a tick your finger should replace exactly.
Remember, the pattern is: down, up, in, out, down, up, in,
out, etc. Down is playing thumb, up is
replacing thumb, in is playing the #2, out is
replacing #2, so you'll hear notes for down and in
and ticks for up and out |

quicker
no click |
This one has no clicks and is a bit faster. Play along when
you can do the first one well. |

Echo Bay |
slow |
lots of time to open your hands, and play. You can also
brush all the position, and let the file play the individual notes. |

| Joy to the world |
med tempo |
use the first part of this to help with the timing of the
glisses |
| Brian Boru's March |
med tempo |
might be a little quick to start playing along with, but
good to hear how the rhythm goes... |
| The Water is Wide |
pretty
fast |
when you've learned the individual placings very well. |
| |
slow
with pauses |
there is a little pause after each placing to get your
fingers back - if you have a built-in metronome in your head, this may
drive you crazy. But it may help you to play along smoothly. |
| Thetis Island Waltz |
melody |
just the melody. You can play along, or experiment with some
of the accompaniments you've learned |
| |
accompaniment |
this is a combo of the patterns below the tune. See how many
you can identify, or just enjoy playing the melody along with the
"back-up" band. |

| April Point Rain |
med slow |
This is all 3 parts played together. Let me know if this
works for you to practise with, or if you'd like individual parts.
Note that the backup to the solo part is repeated 4 times (total), so you
can play the background at least twice, and then play a solo over it, etc.
Then it is back to the top. |
| Lullaby By Brahms |
1/4 = 68 |
A good tempo to play at, slow and calming. Playing along
with the computer may be more pleasant than a metronome, and will serve to
practise with a steady tempo. |
