Hey all -
I'm running a mandolin workshop in a few weeks and the topic I originally planned I've decided is too in depth for a 60 minute workshop (the original idea was "How to learn a song at every level - using Mary had a Little Lamb, showcasing how to use multiple melody, chord, and scale positions to create interesting ideas on any song").
I've been toying with a few other ideas but I was curious to get some ideas from the group. Ideally this is targeting beginners and some intermediate players as those are the most likely to come to a workshop that's not run by someone super famous haha.
Topics I'm toying around with:
+ Double stops across the fretboard - using double stops to move around the fretboard and create interesting leads and rhythmic ideas.
+ Proper technique breakdown - common technique problems and how to correct them for good
+ Building strength and Focus - focusing on left hand pinky exercises and right hand picking techniques
Any thoughts on these - or any suggestions on topics that you'd attend?
