About the Course

Let's take a deep dive into Carlos Gardel's Por Una Cabeza. Download the notes for free at 8notes.com and then join me for customized practice sessions that will take you from the beginning till the end of the piece. Just like a workout session, I'll walk you through a warmup and we'll do about 20 minutes of practicing together in each chapter. To make sure you've got the extra support you need, I've included three bonus chapters on shifts, chromatic notes, and slurs over two strings that should help you work out the last kinks in Por Una Cabeza. And if all else fails, just get in touch with me - there's no problem we won't manage to solve!
