That was great. Somewhat of a far-away destination for me, but then again, I do take challenges! Are there audio tracks with the book? An informed ear helps my reading! Really wonderful mandolin music! f-d
Thank you! More books please.
Thursdays are way better nowadays. Thanks Aaron.
Aaron, thanks so much for doing this series. Great brain food!
Sheet music for this etude can be found in my book, MANDOLIN CHORD MELODY SYSTEM from Mel Bay. http://www.melbay.com/Products/30502...aspx?src=16297
Nice. When one acquires the book, are audio or video files of the exercises available? Thanks
These get slicker all the time. I love the choices of chords. In a life with little spare time these videos are well worth taking time to study. I'm very grateful you woke your inner mandolinist to share with us.
Nicely done!
This etude may or may not be based on “Pennies From Heaven”. Sheet music for this etude can be found in my book, MANDOLIN CHORD MELODY SYSTEM from Mel Bay. http://www.melbay.com/Products/30502...aspx?src=16297

Apparently I need to remember how to read syncopated rhythms. Great playing! Thanks!

This etude may or may not be based on a Gershwin song about a lady.
If you hit that link Aaron provided above starting Friday, you can take 15% off the cost of the book (assuming you don't already own it) by using discount code MB15! That can't hurt. Good through Jan. 16.
Thanks
Nicely done, Aaron!
Great stuff!

Terrific Aaron. Thanks very much. But which Etude is this one? I know it's not Etude #1 'cause that's as far as I've got so far.
Great, many thanks. This has convinced me to buy your book. 2017 is the year of chord melody!
Awesone, thanks Aaron. I have the book so this will be a great help.
Thanks Aaron ...... you make it look possible if not easy. R/
This is exactly what was missing from the book !
I've been working the book and wish I had your smooth style down, Aaron. All your videos are great - keep them coming.
Just bought your book Aaron. Looking forward to working through it.
Great playing. Also a great book; Aaron lays out the methodology to creating a chord melody in easy to understand language.
Cool stuff, Aaron. Thanks for doing this!
I should mention--the sheet music for this etude can be found in my book, MANDOLIN CHORD MELODY SYSTEM from Mel Bay. http://www.melbay.com/Products/30502...aspx?src=16297
