If you’ve ever thought about learning to read music on bass and either gave up early or were too daunted to start, now is your chance to finally make it happen! In this pathway, Philip Mann takes you on a step-by-step journey from the basic building blocks of clefs and bar lines up to tricky, triplet and 16th note rhythms. The lessons never move too fast or skip over anything important, so you can feel confident in gaining a solid foundation in this important skill.
In most performance situations, bass players aren’t given a score that includes their part note-for-note. Instead, you'll receive a chord chart or a lead sheet. Learning to navigate and read these charts is an absolutely invaluable skill that ALL musicians should master. Whatever your personal goals are as a bass player, mastering this skill is such an important part of your development. You simply can't go without it.
