Your Second Melody

If you've gotten to this point, and feel extremely comfortable with the first melody you've learned, you're now prepared to play your second melody. The difference now would be that you will be using standard notation along with the tablature.

Soldier's Joy

This is a Civil War melody that focuses on the skeletal melody. After accomplishing this piece, we will add embellishments to further the learning process of arranging.
