​​PRACTICE TRACKS
​
DEMO means there is an instrument playing your part. BACKING TRACK means that it's the accompaniment only. When students are first learning a new song, they need to listen daily to the demo. When students are ready to pass off a song, they need to play it for me up to tempo with the backing track. To get a song up to tempo, students must increase the speed gradually using a metronome.
Please bookmark your current tracks for easy access.
