Chordplay - The Chords Of Cornell Dupree

This lesson focuses on a number of classic rhythm-based parts pulled from Cornell's lengthy history as a session ace, and his nickname of "Mr. 2500" was rightfully earned, as he historically logged over 2,500 studio sessions in his lifetime. The selection of music we're hitting here includes music from Cornell's classic solo album Teasin' along with his side-project "supergroup" Stuff, not to mention a few examples of his session work with Rufus Thomas and Hank Crawford back in the day. This includes sections of the songs It's A Funky Thing To Do, Ditch Digging, Help Me Make It Through The Night, Feel All Right, Foots, Blue Nocturne, and Teasin' - to name a few!

Bach’s BWV 995 Sarabande is a special piece of music. It’s sparse, delicate, and deceptively complex even though it looks simple on the page! There are some approaches, informed by Baroque performance practices, that will open your ears to discovering your own musicality within Bach’s music. The piece doesn’t require advanced right-hand classical guitar technique. You can play with a combination of pick and fingers, or fingerstyle. This lesson is not so much about technique, but about the subtle nuances that bring the written note to life. With a little knowledge of Baroque performance practice, you can lend your own interpretation to Bach’s masterpiece.
