Developing Legato - Part 1

Two Finger Exercises

This is part 1 of 4 in a Legato Series that I've written. These simple yet effective exercises should help you improve your technique. Things to focus on:

• Play with a metronome!
• Start slowly and don't move ahead until all fingers are ready
• A pull-off is a "snap" not just a lift of the finger
• Observe my left hand
• Keep your left hand as parallel to the fretboard as possible
• Maintain a steady breath and posture; this will help you stay relaxed
• If it hurts, then stop
• Legato is difficult, so be patient:)
