Improvisation VI - "Like Someone in Love" Part 3
In keeping with my aim of altering the key of each exercise while preserving the fret range, this month’s improvisation exercise features the song “Like Someone in Love” in the key of B major arpeggiated between the 6th and 10th frets inclusively.
As a reminder, the rules of this exercise are:
Arpeggiate the chords of a song in 8th notes within a five-fret range of the guitar.
Starting on the lowest available chord tone in that range (in this case, A#, the seventh of a B major 7 chord) and arpeggiate upward. Change directions only when the next chord tone falls outside of the five-fret range.
While the purpose of this exercise is to improvise according to the above rule, some find it helpful to read through a reference exercise. You can find one chorus written out here and watch me perform it here.
