Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

September 4, 2006 | Lessons at the Cafe

Perhaps you've already discovered this for yourself but it bears repeating. A great place for a novice to start building a chord and style vocabulary is in the Lessons section of the popular mandolin website www.mandolincafe.com.

We've contributed several lessons on our popular FFcP series, but you can also pick up some gems like Twelve Essential Jazz Chords (by the site administrator, Scott Tichenor, who is an incredible jazz mandolinist himself), and several lessons on Swing Mandolin by Seth Rosen.

You'll also want to check out the Rhythm Changes lessons. Spend sometime over there and after the main course, enjoy a little Eye Candy for dessert.
