For intermediate to advanced players who want to learn how to improvise over different styles, especially when modulating over 2-chord vamps. This lesson progresses through exercises, play along, and gives you various ways to practice. I take you through various exercises to internalize the chord scales in a two chord vamp. 🎻 More Funk Play Along Videos: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6By1KZHRO2LbFyIX3NY3JG2KpJ1wtTG3 🎻 All my Backing Tracks: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6By1KZHRO2K6zMLvjbZ6k6dZDggxMhqg 🎻 All my Play Along Videos: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6By1KZHRO2KHi59cupsiiPXU7tbyOZTw The two chords in this progression are G minor 7 (add 9,11,13) and B minor 7 (add 9,11) From these chords we can use the G dorian scale (same key signature as F major) and the B dorian scale (same key signature as A major). Funk out. Modulating chords. Scale workout. Let’s work. Showing you how to play funk on violin with this funk play along for violin. 🎵 FUNK 🎵 Originated in the mid 1960s, mixing soul, jazz and rhythm and blues into a new rhythmic and danceable form of music. James Brown, The Meters, Sly & The Family Stone were some of the originators of funk, creating a hypnotic feel with interlocking rhythm patterns and a strong focus on the bass groove. When sampling started in the 1980s, many funk classics found a new life, sampled and chopped up to create new music styles like hip hop and electronic dance music. #FunkViolin #ViolinPlayAlong #ViolinTutorial
