Hi David,

I am very happy to join your lessons and glad about your tests to give me reasons to practice and make progress. While working with the level 4 test I am not quit sure how to translate the task for the accompaniment study. You are asking for a 'couple' of chorusses. Do you expect 2 chorusses or some of them or all 12 chorusses. It's a big challenge to notate tabs for 12 chorusses without tools and to memorize the rhythm patterns. Do you have some tips to do so?

Hello Meili. Two choruses is

Hello Meili. Two choruses is what I'm looking for. You can play the same two choruses, I just want to hear that you know how to play under the vocals and throw some fills in correct places. Writing down the hole numbers does the job. With something this short, you can do the rhythm by memory.
