Welcome
to the world of guitar! This book is aimed at beginners who are looking
to enjoy playing music whilst developing their basic technique.
I have selected pieces that expose you to a wide variety of music styles & guitar technique.
I
strongly believe that from an early stage, one should pay attention to:
rhythm, tone, phrasing and voicing. Rhythm is fundamental to music. The
sound of guitar is perhaps one of the main attractions for us all in
choosing guitar in the first place. Our instrument is a plucked one, so
it's important to make it sing. At the same time we can make music
multi-dimensional by fully using the polyphonic nature of our
instrument. I personally enjoyed playing these pieces and I hope you
will too.
Above all, no matter what level you are, let's not forget that we all chose guitar to enjoy making music.
