For this final week, Ethan demonstrates some of the ideas he’s been sharing in his version of “Golden Slippers,” an old chestnut of a dance tune that works well in the key of D. He doesn’t break down the melody phrase-by-phrase, but it’s a simple tune that should be easy to pick up at the moderate tempo he’s playing it. Once you have the basic version, try playing it an octave higher, like Ethan shows you at the end of this video. Download the play-along track to practice playing along with Ethan on the melody at the slower tempo.
