In this video

In this lesson we're using a different pattern to previous lessons, but over the same scale. This time the pattern moves up by only one note each cycle.

Lesson aims

  1. Practice your third finger rolling/anchoring technique
  2. Pay attention to your left hand positioning as you move through the run

A minor pentatonic - positions 5, 1 and 2

Red = position 5, Blue = position 1, Green = position 2

Exercise 6 - Minor pentatonic ascending runs with slides
