Example2 Two-bar ensemble endings

We continue with some two-bar ideas in the key of D major. Although these are presented as ending ideas, you only really need to change or delay the point of resolution to make these examples all work as intros. Again, they are presented on the audio without backing, mainly so that you can clearly hear each idea in isolation but also to demonstrate that the strength of any line is based around its melodic and harmonic construction and the rhythmic integrity of the delivery, rather than relying upon the rhythm section to prop any idea up. Again, technically here, on the GT audio I swapped freely between straight plectrum-style and hybrid picking for the examples requiring two notes at once.
