We’ll be looking at two Jimi Hendrix favourites: Little Wing and Hey Joe. Chord progressions in two different keys moving from open to a closed position demo’ing classic ways of filling in for standard chords? The usual suspects feature: passing chords, triads, chord tones, arpeggios and double stops as well as legato techniques). We’ll be moving from high beginner to intermediate approaches for the same progressions.
We’ll be learning two Hendrix classic songs with inventive ways to play them: rhythmically, fills, bass line movement, passing chords, using triads, double stop runs, adding in arpeggio notes and chord tones, legato techniques, etc.
Little Wing A fantastic, all-diatonic chords song in Em.
Hey Joe A masterful use of the Circle of 5ths.
High Beginner to Intermediate acoustic or electric guitar.
The session is 60 minutes long; don’t expect to master everything during the session. The tutor will go through all the key parts, demonstrating them and discussing the associated techniques and know-how.
The real work is done by you afterwards. Armed with the materials (PDFs, any backing tracks and video recording), you’ll have all the tools to work on things at your own pace.
When you book you’ll have two options:
1. You want to join the live Zoom session.
You’ll receive the joining instructions on the day. Being live, you’ll be able to put your own questions directly to the tutor during the session. Choose option 1, Live lesson and materials.
2. Maybe you’d like to attend but can’t make it on this occasion?
You can buy the materials and receive them after the session (i.e. lesson PDF(s) and access to a Zoom recording of the live session). Choose option 2, Materials only.
