Sharon kicks off her workshop by introducing four sustain techniques (single string, two strings, drone, and separating two strings) and three rhythmic techniques (quarter notes, eighth notes, and shuffle bow) and showing you how to use them to create variations on the melody of “Old Joe Clark.” In Part 1 of the session, she walks you through the four sustain techniques, which are illustrated in Part 1 of the downloadable notation/tab.



This lesson is provided free as part of our For Beginners resources at Peghead Nation. This lesson comes from Melodic Embellishment by Sharon Gilchrist.
