Hi everybody :wave: Vintage Club - Monday 10 March 2025.

:guitar: Join Richard in his live class on blending triads with the major scale - a hands-on session where you’ll learn to blend diatonic triads in the key of G with the G major scale—a powerful technique to craft melodic, expressive lead lines.

@Richard_close2u
I read the description and this lesson sounds very useful, but I can’t really foresee what you will be talking about.

Is there something we could do in preparation to get the most of the lesson, apart from having practiced the G major scale and knowing a bit about triads in general?

Hi Dominique.
Thanks for the question.
Have you received preview materials from Fanny?

Advance preparation

  • Be familiar with playing G, Am, Bm, C, D and Em triads on the G, B & E strings between frets 2 and 5 - ideally following the progression shown below.
  • Know how to play Pattern 1 of the G Major Scale. See The Major Scale Pattern 1.
  • Additional preparation - view the first three lessons here - Major Scale.

Oh, I haven’t, they were not there when I asked. Thanks a lot! Now I’ll have some homework to do! Looking forward to your club!

That club was great Richard. I really enjoyed it and also found it very useful since I am just somewhere between all previous triads clubs and major scale patterns lessions…
Don’t worry about the backing tracks not working. I really liked playing together with you as my rhythm player :slight_smile:

I just viewed a few short sections of the club session. The sound quality was very hissy overall - unlike previous sessions. Sorry about that.

Also, I am rather bemused and flummoxed as to why the audio from my looper (Trio+) nor the audio from my Guitar Pro could not be heard. Both have worked before. Gremlins? I will check all settings asap and also see if something changed in Streamyard.

I think I managed to achieve most of what I wanted despite the setback of no backing track. :slight_smile:

@bk2 You’re very kind Bostjan … I’ll be your rhythm player any time! :slight_smile:

Too bad! - Yesterday I was puzzled with helping my father , because his water in the house had stopped working, (he has a his own little water supply) so that I forgot about that evening session! I was so much looking forward to it!

I’m sure you did - I’ve seen you before managing problems in a lesson and it felt like there wasn’t the slightest drawback!
I’m looking forward to the recording so I’ll be a bit less sad for having missed it! :slight_smile:

I wondered why the recording took so long to be ready :slight_smile: , but now found it’s already there: https://www.youtube.com/live/2vI8IikhS18?feature=shared

I was used to find the link in the first post, but anyway, I wonder how you, Richard, @Richard_close2u , you can be here and there and edit and reply to all these posts all over the forum! :slight_smile: It’s similar to my wondering how Santa Claus is able to put all the presents in every house…

Cheers, see you soon again, Dominique
