20 rock violin licks
20 rock violin licks demonstrated, each with on-screen sheet music. Includes backing phrases, flattened third licks, flattened seventh licks, the minor pentatonic scale, minor blues scale, Chuck Berry lick, the Pick Slide, the Power Chord, Hammer-ons, artificial feedback and a selection of high speed shredding licks. Also, at the end, The Most Important Lick of All! A free sheet music pdf is available to subscribers. Email me at haighchris@hotmail.com The licks from this video are mostly taken from my book Discovering Rock Violin, published by Schott. "A great achievement...fantastic book"- Mark Wood "I love the fact that your book features a lot of great players in the rock world who, many of whom I have always felt were underappreciated. This is something I was considering doing with my book, but instead I decided to focus on theory and techniques, which your book covers extensively as well. ...Thank you again for writing a book on a topic which is long overdue" -Joe Deninzon "If there's a more entertaining pedagogical book than this published in 2012 I'd like to see it. Chris Haigh celebrates the violinist in the rock band in an offering as full of laughs as a Spinal Tap concert" -David Lasserson.

20 blues violin licks for "House of the rising Sun"; a blues violin lesson.
In this blues violin lesson, I show the basic melody of the traditional song "House of the Rising Sun", made famous by The Animals in 1964. I then show 20 licks or riffs that you can use when soloing over the chord sequence. I explore the minor blues scale, the minor pentatonic scale, licks in first and third positions on the violin, the use of very simple repeated licks, false harmonics on the violin, and licks with a 6/8 feel which cuts across the 3/4 time signature. This is one of a series of videos I have posted explaining and demonstrating blues violin techniques, many of which cross over into rock, jazz, country and bluegrass fiddle styles. If you'd like to learn this style of violin/fiddle playing, look at my books "Exploring Jazz Violin" and "Discovering Rock Violin" To look at or buy these or my other books, go to https://bit.ly/32B9IiF I also have an online jazz violin course on Musicgurus. It comes in two parts, each including 26 short lessons. Course 1 covers swing bowing, scales and finger patterns, playing and developing a melody, using riffs, pentatonic and blues scales, and the playing styles of Grappelli and Venuti. Part 2 covers chords, 251’s, the cycle of fifths, chord substitution, and the playing styles of Stuff Smith and Jean luc Ponty. Parts 1 and 2 are both just $30 each! Please use the following link if you're interested; https://bit.ly/3iVwt7p There are a couple of free lessons you can try out before buying. If you would like a copy of the 20 blues licks, the basic melody, along with the chord sequence, subscribe then email me at haighchris@hotmail.com.

Logitech C922 Pro Stream and C920 Webcam Comparison and Review
Clean and crisp HD video. Avg built-in mic, but auto-focus/lighting work well. Great for live streaming and chat apps. Amazon Affiliate Product Link: https://bit.ly/3ivoON6 Lapel mic I'm using in the video: https://bit.ly/3gH6iRj [Amazon Affiliate Product Link] Also check out the Logitech C920: https://bit.ly/2XQ13r8 [Amazon Affiliate Product Link] The camera has a 6’ USB cord and comes with a mini 8" tripod. I've been using the older model the C920 for a couple years and it has served me well during that time. However, I need to replace it because it's starting to behave somewhat erratically. The C922 camera has the same footprint as the original measuring 4” across, 1.5” high and 3" long. On the front is the 1080p HD lens and on the sides are the built-in stereo mic. The status LED on the sides are white instead of the blue and cannot be disabled as on the previous model. On the bottom there’s a 1/4” thread mounting hole for standard tripod mounting and the base splits open so that you can place the webcam over the top of a monitor or laptop screen. The microphone was comparable to the C920 built-in mic but was somewhat quieter though seemed to filter out more background noise at the same time. At 1080p resolution the max frame rate is 30fps, but at 720p you can go up to 60 fps, which is a new feature for this camera. The auto-focus is speedy and the auto brightness does a nice job keeping the brightness constant if light levels change. The focusing time is slightly quicker than the C920's performance and there is little latency that I noticed in the recordings. I did try to test out the automatic background removal with Personify Chromacam, but unfortunately I never got it to work properly with OBS on my Windows 10 system. It worked once, and during that test I was able to somewhat replace the background in my video with a green screen, but it wasn’t entirely accurate and sometimes it removed my hair or left part of the chair; if I moved around enough the entire screen would go to green screen. After that one time Chramacam just kept crashing OBS when I opened it. I can’t recommend the camera for that particular feature based on my experience with the camera/software. I'm sure future update will fix this, though I’ve been reading online for now the software is just really buggy and unreliable. Overall, the C922 is a solid webcam and the video performance is slightly better than the C920. If you’re happy with your C920 and don't need a new webcam, I think you can skip the upgrade this round. However, if you need a camera with clear and crisp video right now, I’d definitely pick the C922 over the C920.

In short, you can use the G minor pentatonic scale on all of the chords in this song as long as you do it carefully and thoughtfully. But you can also use other scales. The best way IMHO to be SURE of what notes to play over any chord is to really know the chord and use notes from the chord. Nonetheless using a scalar approach is sometimes very useful. As I always say, there are more important things than the notes to play. Clear melodic rhythms and phrases with beginnings and endings for example.
