  • The pentatonic scale is one of the EASIEST scales to learn and use on the mandolin...or any instrument! It consists of only five notes and can be used in any style of music. Knowing this scale will boost your confidence when you are thrown into crazy musical situations where you need to be able to play over a chord progression quickly. See how easy it is to learn in this video!

    Another brilliant lesson. Always wanted to solo while someone is strumming chords. Beautiful

    This was perfect, Emma, and so easily understood. Thank you. All mandolin students should see this video early on, for sure.

    Merci beaucoup from a ukulele player. I'm learning the fretboard using the pentatonic scale, and yes. It's easy, but I still can't do it in my sleep.

    Hi Emma! well done! What were the chords that you were playing during your session when you were soloing?

      Thank you! The chords are C, Am, F, and G. Then those repeat one more time

    If 40% of the notes change your life, you might consider a new life.

      If trolling You Tube videos is part of your life, you might consider a new bridge.
