Sam Edelston: "Stronger Pinky – Better Playing"(Saturday, Session 1, Mountain Dulcimer, Advanced Beginner)

$12.50

Do you avoid fretting with your pinky just because it’s your weakest finger? (Can you imagine a concert pianist avoiding using her pinky?) Getting comfortable with your pinky can help you play chords and can generally help smooth out your playing. We’ll do some songs and exercises designed to give your pinky a good, diverse workout on single notes, hammer-ons, chords, and more – while also being (mostly) fun. DAD tuning. Class recording will be available for about a month after the festival.
