Lesson 2- etude 2.3
https://youtu.be/tvzkBzZvJdM Hello all, here is chord progression #2: II-V-I-VI (in C major) slowed down to 80% speed. In posture news, I tried turning the guitar support pillow on its side to make it taller & so far this feels pretty good. I can keep both feet on the floor instead of having a crossed leg. Mine is the smaller 4 inch, so I've ordered the larger 5.5 inch support to try. I want to say that I really do appreciate those of you who have shown concern and offered advice on my wrist/posture situation.

Come Thou Fount - entire CM
This is an original arrangement by Nathan Corr of a famous hymn that you may recognize. I’ve been working on this in bits and pieces for about 3 months. To be honest, it is a bit out of my reach as an intermediate player, but I’m determined to eventually master this beast! This is my first attempt to put it all together in a recording. My goal here is to get it to the point where it can be published and shared (free) with accompanying sheet music and soundslice. Ultimately I would love to have about 10 pieces arranged and recorded. So it’s a stretch goal. Anyway, here it is so far… I feel that it’s about 70 percent there and will likely take another 3 months to master. Definitely the hardest thing I’ve ever attempted. Appreciate your advice! Thank you https://youtu.be/9KclTDw6NgM?is=o02XyAODIZX5jxe8

Lesson 3 Autumn Leaves
Here is my first go at Autumn leaves chord melody. There's a few chord and note muffles and hesitations. I would like to work on being more legato/fluid and to personalize it and give it some variety. Any feedback or instruction is always welcome. Thanks! https://youtu.be/WV01AkTyoPA

@Joseph Pugleasa Thanks Joseph! Keep at it, it doesn’t come easy for me either. The method that works for me is to find the problem areas and isolate them, like even just 2 or 3 notes or a single chord change and play them ridiculously slow with a metronome over and over until it works then gradually speed it up and then slowly put them all together. Sometimes doing this you will find a different fingering or an adjustment that will work better. Using that method has helped me anyway. Thank you for listening!
