The Chord Melody course by Amudi Safa is a comprehensive and detailed guide for guitarists who wish to elevate their playing and arrangements on the guitar.
Structured in 10 video lectures in 4k and HD audio, with a detailed booklet attached with all transcriptions of the parts played, the course explores every fundamental aspect of Chord Melody, from its origins to modern applications.
It begins with an overview of the concept of Chord Melody, explaining how this technique combines melody and chords; then the handling of the right and left hand is explored in depth to achieve a more expressive touch.
Amudi illustrates chords and melody management through analysis of the Beatles' beautiful "Yesterday, " providing detailed, practical examples.
The technique of "stripping" the chords is then presented, making the performance more fluid and less constraining, for greater creative and expressive freedom.
Later lessons add melody to the chords of "Yesterday," using specific expressive techniques such as slide and bending.
"Fills" to enrich and harmonically tie chords are introduced, building on the concept of the CAGED system explained in Amudi's previous course here on Musicezer, "Guitar Navigator."
Advanced handling of the plectrum and fingers is illustrated through an arrangement of Michael Jackson's "Human Nature."
Amudi also explains how to incorporate the groove into the arrangement, marking 2 and 4 with a 2-chord turn, focusing on the right hand to maintain a steady rhythm. Application on the Beatles' beautiful "Eleanor Rigby" is shown.
The course concludes with the use of "Hendrix chords, " integrating fills to tie chords in the style of Jimi Hendrix and applying pick handling learned earlier.
This course offers a comprehensive and in-depth overview of Chord Melody, enriching your technical and artistic background. Amudi Safa will guide you step by step, making each lesson an educational and challenging experience.
