Cold Frosty Morning
intermediate mandolin
This lesson is for members
I happen to love cold frosty mornings, though this tune was written in remembrance of the gruesome battle of Culloden Moor in 1746. It starts in A minor, then onto a major sound. We'll learn a harmony part, too, and work on our improvisation using target notes!

My fingers know it but my brain doesn't yet — I can't play it without the tab in front of me. How do you all commit these to memory?

Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.

The pinky thing goes away, I promise. Took me about three months.

Count it out loud. Everyone says it and everyone's right.

Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

There's a slower track in the resources for this one. If you want it slower still, let me know and I'll cut one.
