Creating Solid Bass Lines & Beyond

Karen Horner

This class for all bass instruments with strings will help you create more fluid and dynamic lines using these elements of music: rhythm, harmony, melody, and tone. We will focus on technique and introduce exercises tailored to each student’s needs. Closed position scales and patterns, arpeggios, and pentatonics are some of the topics that will be covered. All concepts and exercises will be applied to repertoire; bring your songs! All levels welcome. Karen Horner Karen Horner has been studying and playing the bass since age 11.
