open_b c_high d_high

Towards the end of the third line in the exercise below you can see there are different looking notes being used. These notes are half notes, remember half notes are worth two beats. Try to count out aloud when you are playing these notes, for example the third note on the second last bar which is "D", would be picked on the third beat, then let ring out over the fourth beat.
