when i browse the web, every now and then someone makes the comment to really improve finger technique practice playing class sheet stuff, even if you are a rock & roller.
Well this past few weeks i started practicing some of this stuff. at first i couldn’t do it, then when i could do it – it was at a snails speed compared to backing track speed. Then after several weeks – getting closer to backing track speed.
The amazing thing was, when i went back to all the other stuff i played in the past – they seemed so much easier to play. So it does seem to work.
Some of these classical pieces really does trip up your fingering to say the least.
