Lick Of The Week
Challenge! Play this line and post it. I think I play something like this 100 times on every gig… There are 4 levels to this, you can pick which one is most doable for you right now…. 1- Exactly the same as myself, in C Major 2- Try it in a few different keys 3- Start like I do and finish it off a little differently. 4- improvise over a backing track and use this line in your improv My 46 lines course in the classroom has a number of lines that work in a similar way (they are a little more straight forward and all in G) all transcribed and explained fully. Get hold of it here https://www.skool.com/jazzviolin/classroom

What you working on this weekend?
What is everyone practising right now? For some people, the weekend is the best time to get some practise in (not for me, I have a toddler at home so if I'm not gigging, I’m out at the play park!) If you are using the weekend to get some practise in, what are you up to? Tell us in the comments!

@Matt Holborn thank you for the tip!! I've practiced arpeggiating the chords and writing down little notes on my music like F# -> F natural for the D7->D-7. but i haven't tried constant quarter or eighth notes, that may help because when I practice the arpeggios I notice myself going into autopilot mode where i'm just playing the finger patterns without intentionally playing each chord tone.
