Guitar

Every week I go to guitar  lessons at my school with my guitar teacher Mr Campbell. My lesson is at 3:30 on a tuesday afternoon it is after school of course. Each week we start by doing revision from the week before just to make sure we have got the idea of the new concept. Then we start looking at the the new concept for the week. This week we were learning about slash chords which is when you play a chord but it is either one note higher or lower on the musical scale. We also were learning about minor sevens which is when you remove a note or two from the chord you are playing. We also looked back at a skill we were taught at the start of the year called harmonics which is a common way used to turn the guitar by ear. Once we finish the new concept we always have a competition to see who is the best. This can sometimes get very competitive.
