About the exercise
The lick played by Michael Angelo Batio is taken from his second solo album “Planet Gemini”. It is a pedal tone lick which involves playing one reference note (D) which is then interspersed with other notes on the scale (E, F#, G, C and B). This system was widely used by composers such as Bach, Mozart and Beethoven. It was brought back into fashion by guitarists such as Michael Angelo Batio and Yngwie Malmsteen in the 80s.
Tip: use the Speed Trainer and the Guitar Pro 6 metronome to work at your own pace, gradually increasing the difficulty.
