Hi Mike I will be making/posting videos exploring counterpoint as we go forward. Yes, I would say that if you are interested in learning counterpoint learning how to read standard notation would be very helpful. Stay tuned for some counterpoint lessons

Hey every body, just wanted to let you know the livestream from last week is now posted. Big props to Jeff D for transcribing almost every note I played during the stream.

Have fun
Tim

Hi TGW community,

Here is my version on On The Sunny Side of The Street:

I made an intro for the song where I used some sound, which I learnt from Tim’s Fluid Harmony Workout Lesson

I also got inspired by Tim’s comping in the Play-along section, and by his singing.
I incorporated these in my fist A sec…Read More

So nice ! Lovely intro, and very nice singing as well. Watch out for rushing the tempo when you are strumming four four and singing. I have to work on that a lot too. Great job. Tim
