Less is more! Knowing when to play and when not to play is such a powerful element
Absolutely!! So important most times the space/rest means more than the notes
Love it !
Awesome to hear!

Hey! I’ll keep that I’m mind, this isn’t technically for beginners, there’s a few different elements in here that are a little advanced. It may sound simple but it’s a bit more to it. But trust me, with the beginner lessons I’ll be sure to zoom in 😎😉
