Introduction: Welcome!
Choosing your zills: Looking
First, we explore the physical attributes of zills, the variety and differences of zills, and how to know when one set is enough.
Choosing your zills: Listening
Here we explore all the sonic attributes of any set of zills, and the single most important thing to consider when you’re choosing your zills.
Becoming fluent: Elastic connections
Becoming fluent with any instrument lets us express ourselves more easily.
Elastic is the interface between your fingers and your zills, and in this video we explore the details of setting up that interface for easier fluency.
Becoming fluent: Zills on your fingers
Building on the previous lesson, here we look at how to make one simple change in the way you put your zills on to reduce tension and enhance fluency, and where to place them for maximum technical control.
Becoming fluent: Using form
Building on the previous lessons, here we explore how you connect with your zills through your arms and hands, how your body affects the sound, and how to adjust your form for more ease and fluency.
Becoming fluent: Moving into zills
Building on everything you’ve learned so far, here we explore how to connect with your zills through your whole body, for even greater ease and fluency.
