Great advice by Pat Metheny

In this video, recorded during a masterclass in Italy, Pat demonstrates how to effectively warm up, using a range of exercises and techniques that focus on arpeggios, lines, and modulations. He emphasizes the importance of warming up as a way to increase dexterity, develop flexibility, and improve overall technique. Pat also explains the concept of modulating from one key to another, and how to use arpeggios to develop your finger movement. He also shows how to use lines as a way to connect two different ideas and to expand upon the harmonic possibilities. By utilizing all of these techniques together, Pat demonstrates how to use them to create a cohesive, dynamic warmup that can be adapted to different playing styles.
