Death don't have no mercy (violin Lesson)
Death don't Have No Mercy in this Land is an old 16- bar blues song, first made famous by Rev Gary Davis. In this Blues violin lesson, I first show the basic melody. I then show how the feel and sound can be improved by sliding, false harmonics, double E notes, and filling the spaces at the end of the lines. Finally I demonstrate two ways of approaching a solo; firstly using the E minor blues scale, and secondly by following the chords more closely.

Composing with a looper pedal - Improvise for Real
Are you curious about looping? In this video I'll show you how the looper pedal works and how easy it is to create your own loops with what you already know from the IFR practice. Looping is a great tool to compose, improvise and perform, but it can also be a tool to learn music. When you use the looper to create your own music, you are developing your rhythm, your creativity, and you are learning new harmonic material. In this video I'll show you two different approaches to looping: the metaphor of the music band (using the different layers as the voices of a musical group) and the improvised and blended layers (creating each layer in an improvised way). 00:00 How does a looper pedal work? 00:34 Creating loops with the metaphor of the music band 01:14 Looping with different instruments 01:51 Showing you my octave pedal 02:23 Building a first loop with chord 5 04:55 Building a second loop with chords 2 and 5 07:26 New looping approach: ostinato and improvised layers 09:09 Building a third loop with our new approach 11:19 Using the looper to learn music If you want to see my looping videos, check out my personal YouTube Channel or my Instagram: Mireia's Instagram - https://bit.ly/3Bc8WJn Mireia's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP5yL3eOPzYJZEj55wpR3Dw?sub_confirmation=1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ♫♪ SUBSCRIBE and hit the bell to see a new video each Monday: https://www.youtube.com/user/ImproviseForReal?sub_confirmation=1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ RESOURCES & LINKS: ♢ IMPROVISE FOR REAL, complete method for all instruments: https://bit.ly/3BnZaEn ♢ IFR JAM TRACKS LEVEL 1, SEVEN WORLDS: https://bit.ly/3ktBKqN ♢ SING THE NUMBERS 2: This is my new sequential audio course that will take your ear training to the next level with this deep exploration of the seven harmonic environments.

Fiddlevideo.com lessons include sheet music, guitar backup tracks, multiple instructional videos, A/B video looping, video speed controls, and much more. The Tarbolton is a great Trad Irish reel which was recorded in a set of three tunes by Michael Coleman in 1934. This tune is likely of Scottish origin and is many times associated with the Tarbolton Lodge in the Scottish county of Ayrshire. This tune is played out of the key of Em, and it’s a great tune choice for a beginner to intermediate-level player. See The Longford Collector for the second tune in this medley, and The Sailor’s Bonnet for the third. Kevin Burke walks us through his version of the tune in this lesson.

How To Record and Stream Acoustic Guitar and Vocals – Beginner’s Guide

How To Record and Stream Acoustic Guitar and Vocals – Beginner’s Guide If you sing and play acoustic guitar and you want to start doing livestream performances or get into recording your songs – but you are totally unsure about where to start with the studio gear you might need – then this video is for you! It’s a complete beginners guide to capturing your vocals and guitar on your computer. I teamed up with Lynz Crichton, a proudly independent musician, who has mastered the art of live streaming guitar and vocals. She has a very simple recording setup which allows her to connect with her audience each week in her Two For Tuesday livestreams. PLUS, she has used the exact same equipment to record her fabulous vocals and guitar and then produce and master her recordings in Garageband and Logic. In this video she talks us through her setup which is centred around a Focusrite iTrack. She bought this when it was available in a Studio Pack. You can still purchase the iTrack, but if you want to buy a whole 'studio in a box' then you could look at the Focusrite Scarlett Solo Studio. However ANY 2-channel audio interface that has a microphone input and instrument input will do the job. Keep scrolling to get links to the gear! Plus if you want to connect with Lynz, you can do that right here ... Thanks for watching. Comments, suggestions, questions? Please post them!

Last of the Mohicans (fiddle lesson)
The theme from the Last of the Mohicans, also known as Promontory, or The Gael, makes a great, easily recognisable fiddle tune. In this lesson I demonstrate the simple melody, and show how the ornamentation can be varied to good effect for variety and convenience. I also show the melody up an octave.
