If you’ve ever said “I’ve tried to learn some tunes, but I feel like a fish out of water at a session”, I can show you how to best learn tunes and give you the resources and skills you need.

Tunes are a great way to begin or improve your ability to learn by ear! A skill that allows you to learn music faster, retain it longer, learn style and musicality, and improves confidence in your playing.

This class is a great opportunity to get back into playing an instrument you enjoy.

I teach tunes by playing a bar or phrase at a time, explaining the patterns and pitches, and style, then invite the class to play along. We’ll work each section of a tune at a slow pace, and learn a tune a class. Recordings provided for listening and for practicing. Players must be proficient on their instruments and familiar with one octave scales in G, D, A, E, C, and F.

Private lessons with me are also available. See STORE. https://www.heidehilleriggs.com/lessonsandclasses
