Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

February 14, 2007 | Valentines Day

The power of love, the power of mandolin. Interesting read for your Valentine's Day, "How my grandfather won his wife's love," using you-guessed-it, "a mandolin!" Seems the lure of the eight-string in the hands of the right person is an irresistible chick magnet. (or dude magnet, for you ladies...)

Assignments:
Read article "How my grandfather won his wife's love"
Improvise on a few choruses of "My Funny Valentine."

More great Standards chord changes on the Ralph Pat Website.
