Hi

when i was watching the first video in Section 4 - Tongue block study 2 "temperature" - Levels of achviment 2, in the video is said that i would need to watch first Improvising study 1.

But this lesson, Improvising study 1, is currently in L.O.A. level 4.

So my doubt is: as I am in L.O.A. Level 2, should I watch the lesson "improvising study 1" (from L.O.A. level 4) and after that watch section 4 of tongue block study 2 "temperature" (L.O.A. Level 2), or should I wait until i get in Level 4 - improvising study 1, and then get back to watch section 4 of tongue block study 2 (L.O.A. level 2) ?

 

Thanks !

Hello Ivaan. You can do

Hello Ivaan. You can do either one of those ideas... you choose.

I lean a little bit more towards waiting until LOA-L4 and coming back to this. If you're interested in learning the improvising process now, feel free to study Improvising Study 1. Just be aware that you may have some challenges when it comes to being able to place licks dynamically into the 12 Bar Blues this early in your studies.

Have fun... you choose... there's no hurry.
