Hello Everyone, I just finished session 4 and I thought I would describe my experience to offer some perspective and hopefully encouragement to others working through it. But first, I want to thank Steve for putting this incredible lesson series together. All your effort and hard work really shine through. I'm a 61 yr old beginner with no musical background or ability and it took about 16 weeks to finish. I tried to get in an hour a day on my Strat. I was out of town part of that time and missed a day here or there etc. When I could play something twice in a row at recommended speed I moved on to the next. For the 8th note octave jump exercise my goal was 50 BPM and that took about 2.5 weeks. Fur Elise took 3 weeks to get to 76 BPM and The Entertainer took 1 week. I really enjoy the process and making incremental steps. On to Lesson 5! Best Regards, Bill
