Lesson 26 (6/16/15)

This week I want both of you to explore with IMPROVISING. See your theory books and follow the suggestions they give. It can be really fun to make up your own song, and if you follow these simple rules, it can be EASY, too! Have fun and I'm excited to hear what you come up with next week.

Also, don't forget to do sigh reading every day. It can be from your sight reading book, but also try playing hymns or primary songs, or little songs from your theory or technique books.
