Pickin' for progress

Thursday, November 18, 2010

I am still practicing with the Scruggs book, going pretty slow through the exercises but doing so to gain the skills. I find that this book is very good in giving the building blocks. The difficulty I am finding is still in getting the rhythms down and not being able to build speed.

In addition to this, part of my practice time is devoted to one repertoire piece, and I am using Alan Dalton's tabs for Old and in the Way. I have been working on Land of the Navajo for about two months now. The piece is like 85% committed to memory, but again I just can't get the speed, so I feel like progress is very slow.
