it shows Dsus2 instead of Dminor
(I'm new to this stuff, so I'm not sure)
by the way, this sounds great and I am practicing it right now! "

Hey everyone :). In this lesson I made a piece with a classic style. It's on the A minor scale and it has a very sad emotional tone. You can also improvise on the A minor harmonic ( with a g# ) scale in certain parts :).
The lesson has a nice chord shifting, so it's a good exercise to both hands! The backing track is Am Dm C B(dim) Am Fmaj7 G.
Enjoy!
