EGS Lesson Eight  Developing strumming and chord changes

Developing chord changes (every bar)

In the following exercises, we will change chords at the beginning of each bar rather than every two bars, focusing on our ability to develop fluency in changing chords.

For the moment, we are keeping the rhythm simple and, once we are secure in the changes, we will look at integrating more rhythm by using the skills we developed in strumming earlier on this lesson.
