Ken Kolodner: Melody & Backup for the Stunning Irish Air: “Citi NagCumman” (Saturday, Session 4, Level 4 - Upper-Intermediate, Hammered Dulcimer) 15HD081
[2-Hour Masterclass] In part I, we will cover the melody, gain understanding of the chord progression, and touch on arranging ideas to communicate the story of this piece. This piece drives home the point that the chord progression often really makes a tune. In the second hour, we will learn a backup that uses countermelody along with chord inversions to create bass lines. Accompaniments can be as or more rewarding to play than the melody itself!
