  • Project “Foxglove”, part 6

    Posted by Daniel_Morin on June 3, 2021 at 4:52 pm

    In the previous “incarnation” of the TAC forums, I had made some posts about my learning of the song “Foxglove” by Bruce Cockburn. I am now at week 27 and here is an update. I almost reached my goal of playing the song at 130 bpm. Still need polishing but I’m quit proud of my progress so far. Bigwin.

    Fantastic! This is really coming along nicely. Your picking-hand is just dancing along the strings. You make it look easy and, that, it definitely is not!

      Thank you Eric.

      Like you said, seems easy but you need to work a little bit🙂. One thing I learned from this song is that with time and a minimum of practice you can accomplish things that you thought were beyond your reach.

    Hello again @Daniel_Morin , I just wanted to say I listened to your rendition several times, and I think you’re playing of this piece is spectacular🤩 I hope that at some point in my journey that I can play this type of arrangement as well as you👍

      Thank you again Bill.

      Still need to work the fluidity and get all the notes clear.
