Description

This course will help you to learn about the Fue. We will teach you how to create a sound and how to hold the Fue. It will take you from learning the basic notes to playing simple melodies that will get a little more challenging with each lesson. Learning to play the lower and higher register notes as you go through the course and learn new songs.

We will keep this course to playing full notes and keep things simpler so that you can work on the basic notes and concentrate on sound production and placement of hands and fingers. Working on your embouchure is also key to getting better at playing and getting clear and sustained notes.

The course can be used by people who know a little bit how to play the Fue and they will get to learn new songs and better their technique through playing the Fue.

In the course you will learn to play: Iroha an original song, Seijaku, Kokiriko Bushi, Kompira Funefune, Haru no Kouta and Nambu Ushioiuta.

We hope this will help you to Master the Fue before going on to our course 2 where you will learn about half notes and better your playing.


Note:

Lesson 9, teaches you about notations and we encourage you to watch it earlier on and go back to it on several occasions to master writing and reading the music. It can be studied even after lesson 1 or at several points in your study.
