HUDSON'S SAXOPHONE LESSONS
April 1, 2025
For your next lesson:
1) In EXERCISES: Practice the Morning Mood sheet from the beginning through m. 80 (keys of C, F, and Bb).
You can go through these 3 keys and play only the scale/arpeggio line or only the Morning Mood line.
Make sure that you practice these 3X this week and be sure to play all 3 of the keys each time.
2) In TUNES: Get going on Chameleon. Remember how we practiced the trickiest licks in your lesson? We took only 2 notes and repeated them 5x. Then we added a third and repeated that chunk 5x. Then we added a fourth note and repeated that chunk 5x......etc.
Exercises-
I think you completed all the stuff in C Major last week and maybe F Major, too...?
Let's be sure that you finish all the stuff in F Major (m. 37-62) for the next lesson.
Then scroll down to do all the stuff in G Major (m. 153-170) and then D Major (m. 171-206):
Can you get going with the 2 pages in each of these keys?
C Major
F Major
G Major
You'll be moving on to this sheet very soon:
TUNES-
Chameleon -
This practice recording starts with the funky bass line then I count us in.
