Exploring the Blues 9.0: Grooving Down the Blues Highway

Instructor: Terry Hoffman

Date: Mondays, February 10 - March 16

Time: 7:30 pm

Price: $125, early bird discount is available*

This term we will work on 3 classic tunes all in the same key. We will focus on expanding fretboard knowledge, time-feel and chord inversions.

Each class includes a dedicated soloing component, where we will work on scales, licks, phrasing, and lots of jamming – all in search of the best notes!

As always, I’ll include:

• a teaching video that demonstrates various techniques at basic, intermediate and advanced skill levels
• a play-along mp3 track
• an instructional chart
• extension material for advanced students

Note reading isn’t a requirement and material is suitable for intermediate and advanced players (intermediate means being able to play through three-chord progressions, i.e. C-F-G, E-A-B, G-C-D, etc). Mandolin players are welcome!
