Diminished
Exercise

By
T. D. Clark

I
am back after a long hiatus!

Here is a string skipping diminshed run that is the first solo
section from the song EL AVE on my latest CD, Next Big Adventure.
I harmonize it in minor 3rds on the CD, but here is the main melody
part. It ends with a single string diminished run right into an
arpeggio. Start slow and get the shape down first. It actually
moves rather easily once this is accomplished.
There is an example on www.myspace.com/tdclark
in the video section in which you can see how to play it and hear
it in actual time.

Cheers
and keep those metronome’s clicking!
