This course is aimed at the absolute beginner mandolin player. How to hold the mandolin, proper hand / finger posture and good basic technique are all important basics that will be addressed in the early lessons. There will be a progressive study of mandolin scales, mandolin plectrum motions, and mandolin ornamentation throughout the series of lessons. The 'Mandolin Basics' course has all you need to comfortably get you started playing the mandolin. By the end of the course, amazingly, you will have a repertoire of fourteen popular Irish tunes, the ability to play basic chords and triplets and a deeper understanding of the Irish music tradition.
