Lesson Topic
Triplets cont'd, Enter Sandman + Smells Like Teen Spirit
Lesson Outline
We began by reviewing triplets on the practice pad. Cam made great progress in his understanding of subdivisions and seems to be internalizing the concepts of rhythm and tempo very well. We then continued our work with Enter Sandman, going farther into the song than we have before, and discussing the subtle differences between the first and second chorus/post chorus. From there we reviewed Smells Like Teen Spirit and worked a little more on the finer details of the post chorus.

Lesson Comments
Cam did a great job with the practice pad today. He had struggled previously to transition between the various subdivisions that we're working on, but today he was determined and even asked to play through the exercise on his own after several successful attempts together. With minimal instruction he was able to alternate between 8th notes, 8th note triplets, and 16th notes on my count and to a metronome. That's fantastic progress!
