Do This to Play BETTER Mandolin Solos!

[@Newfoundmike]

69 and I just figured out that I probably should have been a mandolin player . It seems to compliment my Voice better. I think it's the way the chords are stacked . Everything sounds better than with the guitar

Honestly, perhaps the best video you've ever put out! And it's a killer solo.

You bet!

Love it - I've been thinking about this after studying some Fux counterpoint - things like accented dissonance, suspensions etc. help give a way of thinking through the playing 'out' parts of solos. While neigh tones, passing tones, escape tones, arpeggios cover so much as well. Anyway, a fun way to link some theory to composing solos 🙂 What it doesn't teach is the impeccable taste displayed here.

Definitely! Music is all about tension and release! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the advice. I've been trying to figure out the kickoff for 'Mr. Engineer' because can't find it on the Internet anywhere. Im halfway there...:)

Thanks David. What's the software you use for writing music?
