Level 2

A good practice tonight. Learning the melody to Autumn Leaves is difficult for me; got the sheet music, and I'm trying to work it out. I can read music somewhat in the first position, but forget any other position. So to compensate, I'm trying to write out the note names to the first note in every two measures or so, and play the rest of the notes by ear. My improvisation is coming along ok. Some licks sound forced when I play them, though. Doing ok though! Getting ready for the first real challenge assignment of the course (Autumn Leaves).
