Description

This Walking BASS is for LATE BEGINNERS who want to SPLASH Walking basses easily to songs!

In this course, we will concentrate on how to create walking basses in "Jingle Bell Rock" so that you can do them to other songs easily from chord to chord in simple chord progressions.

Many pianists have difficulty to count the 'timing' when walking the basses from one chord to the next.  If you need to analyze the timing everytime, you can't splash the walking basses quickly.

Here's the SECRET for BEGINNERS:  ALWAYS SPOT Chord I

  • Spotting  Chord 1, you can walk the bass from Chord V below

  • Spotting  Chord 1, you can walk the bass from Chord 1 below


You will learn the following concepts:

1. Chord V7 Fillers 

2. Walking Bass Fillers 

3. 2 Hands Coordination – Walk Up: C to C  

4. Walk Up Bass

5. 2 Hands Coordination – Walk Up: G to C and  C to C

8. Play Along: Echo Melody Walking Bass 

9. Walk up: Line 6:  G to C 

10. Play Along: Walk Up & Walk Down – Bridge 

11. Walk Back & Forth:  A7 to F 

12. Play Along: Walk Back & Forth 

13. Walk Down:  Fm to D7

15. Walking Bass: Jingle Bell Rock Section 1 – Lines 1 to 4 

16. Walking Bass: Jingle Bell Rock Section 2 – Lines 5 to 9 


We will apply Walking Basses to Jingle Bell Rock.  Once you know how to apply to this song, you will be able to apply to other songs.  Make sure you do lots of practice and you will be able to do these walking basses automatically.

Enjoy,

Rosa
