The Lark in the Morning Part 2 - Ornamentation F cut. You will learn part C and D of this tune as well as embedding the F cut into your melody as you learn it. You will also be given an exercise to practise the F cut. We will look at the strong beats of a jig and how to use your breath control to create the rhythm within the jig. You will learn the tune in segments accompanied by live ABC music notation to help with phrases. You will also insert other elements of ornamentation learned in previous lessons. Towards the end, you will play the tune at a slow learning pace and then again challenge yourself to speed it up.
