Levels

The melodies of Levels 6, 7, and 8.
The skills, improvisation, comping, chopping, sight-reading, and ornamentation in these levels.

Grow the list of musical settings you have experienced by working with singers, playing in an Irish session, and playing in a Bluegrass jam.
You'll learn how to find other musicians, the etiquette of different sessions, and how to make these sessions happen.
