Flavio Lira recently stopped by the Lessonface HQ to teach us some latin bass lines. Check out the video tutorial for Salsa Bass Lines! Be sure to check out Samba Bass Lines as well.
If you haven't already heard, Lessonface is hosting the Rising Star Contest for kids 9-17. We'd love to see what you're working on, and five students will win an entire semester of lessons! Don't forget - submissions are due July 30th.
If you are a teacher on Lessonface who received the message from Ms Anna this afternoon I apologize for the bother with the spam. The user responsible has been blocked from the site, and I wanted to note that here on the blog.
The goal of this exercise is to familiarize the listener/student with the mental challenges and rhythmic demands of polyrhythms. In this exercise the goals are simple to understand, but harder to master. You do not need to be a drummer or percussionist to get value out of this. Additionally you do not even need an instrument, you can literally tap on any available surface.
Calling all musicians ages 9-17 to our Rising Stars Competition! Five students will win a complete fall 2017 semester's worth of lessons with teachers of their choice on Lessonface.com!
