Description

In this lesson we'll make our arrangement more musical. We can accomplish this a few different ways.

We don't have to play a chord with every melody note. We don't have to change chords with every single melody note. Both of these options can help the melody breath a little more by giving it some sonic space. We can also use different bass note options from our experimenting.

We'll also add another chord for variety. We'll play an A minor chord (vi) in measure 7 along with the E (3) note. This adds a little more drama to the end of the tune.
