Today we are going to take it slow and extract some new meaning to those notes that you have been playing all this time. This video is about extracting all the expression from your guitar.

We are going to use a B Aeolian backing track and as usual, you can download it for free.

In music when you take your time and wait to make your point, it's when you are most effective. If you have around three minutes to play over a track you don't want to say everything you have to say in the first thirty seconds.

Remember that over these minor tracks you can always rely on the minor pentatonic scale. I will use a standard pentatonic lick as my starting point. If you are just starting to play probably your first instinct is to play the lick strictly in time. But, if you want to be expressive you need to take your time and change how you feel the subdivisions.

Another way to get more expression out of your music is dynamics, changing the volume of what you are playing. A loud note is not necessarily the most powerful note, often a quiet note makes the listener pay more attention. Those softer notes can be very impactful.

One more resource for expressive playing is note choice. Remember that one note in itself does not mean anything, but played against another note can take a whole new meaning. As a player, you can choose different notes to convey different meanings over different chords.

Expressiveness is not about technique, but about taking your time. It's a mindset in which you are happy and excited about the fact that you are unique as a player. As I always say, nobody can play the way you play. There are twelve notes, but they can be played in millions of different ways.
