Start Improvising - 2 Chord Shapes
Improvising a chord melody solo can seem nearly impossible at first but when we simplify our options to 2 shapes to cover all of our chords we can start to build solos right away.
In this lesson we look at chord melody in the style of Lyle Ritz and Joe Pass and how to construct a solo to practice improvisation. You don't need to know every chord on the instrument or even and scales to start your improvisation journey today.
Over on the Magic Ukulele Club you can put these shapes to use over dozens of other songs and dive into other improvisation exercises.
