Скачать или смотреть Parallel Modulation Study - Moving from Am to A Major

Fingerpicking today! This piece is in Am, but uses chords from the parallel adjacent A major.

Irregular Rhythms: I figured since we're leaving the key of Am, why not leave the rhythm behind too? There's lots of groupings of 3, and then I'll hit you with a grouping of 4. The piece is in 4/4, but it sometimes feels like it's in 3/4 because of the irregular rhythms. It's a subtle but fun challenge baked into this piece.

Triad Study: if fingerpicking isn't your think, check out the triads and chord charts on the top of the page. You can play this piece like a chord progression and strum the triads.

Bonus homework: Can you identify which chords belong in which key? This piece is in Am, but we are borrowing chords in A major too. If you figure it out, leave a comment with your answers and I'll check your work.
