    For all are beautiful to me. I like it a lot.
    Gimme more like these.
    I want to impress friends and family with easy but beautiful patterns in all keys easy to memorize.
    You did good to start with the scale of C.
    IF you have more in C bring them up.
    When will master them, l will follow you in all the other keys.
    For now I stay in this key.
    God bless. 🙏

    Hi Arthur it's been a while but I stumbled upon this and my interest was immediately piqued. As always, you didn't disappoint! As you know I am an advanced player but I really struggle with Improv like a lot of people who have been traditionally trained in the classical realm lol! So thank you, this really does help alleviate anxiety for me when I hear the word improvisation. It's good to see that you're starting to do more advanced-oriented stuff. I see you still haven't finished your PDF lol! You must be busy lol! Thank you once again. Looking forward to the next one.
