These 27 short etudes were composed to provide music suitable for study or the concert stage.  The etudes present a colorful palette of moods and musical textures and incorporate various picking techniques and lush harmonies.  They are extremely useful in developing tone and a lyrical feeling to a guitaristâ??s style.  These etudes will work well as concert preludes or encores or may be played in groups to create more extended performance repertoire.  They are guitaristic and highlight the beauty of the plectrum/flatpick guitar style.  The etudes are written in notation and tablature. Includes access to online audio.

Guitar (rock and blues) - Beginning-Intermediate

SKU: MB.30648M

Composed by Adam Douglass. Saddle-stitched, Technique, Theory and Reference, Pop. Style. Book and online video. 32 pages. Mel Bay Publications, Inc #30648M. Published by Mel Bay Publications, Inc (MB.30648M).

Is the beginning stage of learning the guitar proving to be a frustrating experience? Do you lack songs which you can play from start to finish? Do the ones that you can play all the way through not sound much like their original versions? I have been teaching these pieces to my beginner students for quite some time now, and the success rate has been remarkable. Most methods start by having the student slowly move back and forth between basic chords using only down strokes, playing chords one note at a time to make sure all the notes ring clear. This book offers something much differentâ??playing music! The pieces are designed to target trouble areas often experienced by beginners of the instrument: arching the fingers enough in order to let all the notes of a chord ring clearly. Rather than just droning on through a series of chords, musical patterns are created so that as you learn proper technique youâ??re also playing something musical. The results have been better than expected. Focusing on figures that demand proper technique and some of the most common strumming patterns found in popular music, many of my students are able to execute beginner and intermediate level songs within a few weeks of picking up the instrument rather than a few months. Additionally, the dreaded F chord, or root 6 major barre chord, often rings clearly with all 6 notes being heard upon the first attempt. This book will help you achieve your guitar related goals quickly, more efficiently, and most importantly, more enjoyably. Includes access to online video.
