This book is based on the TAPI (The Alternate Picking Improver) course, which is a highly successful course on alternate picking, divided into eight fun lessons of increasing difficulty. The goal of the course is to develop your technique (speed, touch, precision, dynamics), musicality (timing, ear training, knowledge of licks from different musical styles), body positioning (limb and posture control), study method (to define a useful and personal study strategy), and emotional control (confidence in your performance).

This book is made up of the fundamentals for beginner flatpicking guitar. I have been experimenting teaching in different ways for over 20 years, and in this book you will find the program I now use with my students who are looking to get into this style. Throughout the years, I have greatly changed the contents of this book to suit who I can only guess will be the readers. I have spent a lot of time arranging the tunes so as to match the skill level of the drills, exercises, and theory. I havetried hard to include all of the fundamental elements that you will need to begin flatpicking.

With its 50 Blues rhythms inspired by the biggest hits of the greatest guitarists of all time (Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Albert King, Muddy Waters, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Robert Cray, Albert Collins, B.B. King, T-Bone Walker etc.), this tutorial will keep you pleasantly busy for quite a while. But there’s more to it than that! Besides affording pleasure, these rhythms allow you to discover and study the tools required for a good Blues accompaniment: triads, double stops, single notes, bends, barre chords, slides, hammer-ons, pull-offs, rest strokes, binary and shuffle rhythms, etc. All this is included in the guidelines given to you in the preliminary chapter –guidelines regarding the structure, the rhythm, as well as the chords employed. The DVD attached to the tutorial offers you the possibility to mindfully observe all 50 rhythms – first at actual playing speed, then at a slower speed. This again gives you the opportunity to closely follow the movement of the hands, to choose the right fingerings and keep a steady beat(!) For its part, the MP3 CD is composed of as many backing tracks as there are rhythms in the tutorial; the 50 backing tracks are recorded at two different tempi: the intended tempo (actual playing speed) and the rehearsal tempo (slower speed). On the backing track at actual playing speed the Guitar is only present during the first round, then it disappears, yielding the floor to you. The backing tracks provided here are of an appropriate length (about 4 to 5 minutes each, which sums up to almost 7h of musical practice). This means that you have enough time at your disposal to practice under the best conditions.

Classical Masterpieces for Fingerstyle Guitar is a rare compilation of carefully selected masterworks from the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods arranged for Classical Guitar. While there are many collections which feature lesser-known works for Classical Guitar, we believe none comes close to our complete collection of these most well-known and beloved works created by the greatest composers that ever lived. These great works of the masters from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries have stood the test of time as they continue to be revered to this day. Classical Masterpieces for Fingerstyle Guitar eliminates the need for multiple teaching resources and musical supplements, since many of the greatest pieces ever written are now contained in this one outstanding publication. Each piece has been carefully transcribed and specifically arranged in a classic style perfectly suited for guitar. Extreme care was given in the choice of key signatures and fingering demands of the left-hand, with a careful focus on understanding octave ranges, and placement of page turns in order to make every arrangement extremely playable. The recording that accompanies this book is performed by one of the greatest classical guitarists working in the Miami area today. We are confident that you will be impressed by the performance, but even more so by the exceptional work of the arrangers and editors involved in making this recital collection. It is truly the only curriculum choice for every one of your students today, and for many years to come.
