Hi Everyone,

Today's Target and Pay Per Lesson release is now live.

Colour My World is a piano song that uses simple arpeggios, simple on the piano that is. It is from the second album by Chicago and was written by trombonist James Pankow, as part of the suite Ballet For A Girl In Buchannon, which also included their hit Make Me Smile. This lesson presents the song in a few different arrangements. The first transcribes the piano part into a nearly impossible-to-play guitar piece. The second lowers the bass notes one octave, making it much easier. And the third adds the original bass part to the piano part creating a really nice, stand alone piece. There are some complex fingerings and changes that will really help add some new ideas about finger movement.

Enjoy this Level 7 lesson.

Awesome, Neil! I have been practicing this one off and on after seeing your
sample YouTube video for this song. Now I'll have the correct fingerings for the arpeggios.
Thank you,

Jim

Looks great. Reminds me a bit of the lesson on "I Want You (She's So Heavy)," with the moving bass and arpeggios - but of course trickier.

Loved this song forever.

Wouldn't have thought it would be a level 7 from the simple arpeggio. But I see from the preview that it will be a tough one for sure... when I get to it!!

Too many on the go right now, so need to revisit this excellent song down the road.
