    So excited for these. Yesterday marked my five years on CGC and as I’m working on grade 8 stuff now, I’m excited to go through these too. Thanks Simon!

    This year I finally had the debut of my musical in August 2020, (it was great). I am currently editing the 90 minute video, but doing this challenge perfectly fits into my new years resolution to go back to my guitar studies. Thank you for setting this up;- Candace Corrigan

    I see the course linking through the challenge and understand it comes out of the lessons, but will this be listed as a standalone course?

      Hi Barry,

      This is indeed the standalone course! You can choose from separate units of scales and arpeggios here without having to work through the grades curriculum. Or, you can find all of these lessons in the Grades curriculum just before the practice routines. It’s up to you how you use them, but this is the standalone course.

      Peace,

      Dave B (CGC team)
