Don't just learn how to play like another artist, learn how to discover YOUR UNIQUE SOUND. Intermixing a creative workshop with technical instruction on guitar, we will guide you on a path to self-education and exploration.
This class focusses on developing three aspects of a musician
· The Body
· The Mind
· The Soul
With Body we will focus on developing the finger strength, stamina, and muscle memory necessary for playing guitar. Students will be given exercises and chords to practice that will train their hand for performance.
For the Mind we will focus on learning the basics of music theory. Students will not only learn what the notes are on the guitar, but also why certain notes “sound good” with other notes. These fundamentals are presented in the context of giving the student the tools necessary to begin a journey of self-education. Students are also presented with challenges to begin their early ear development. They are encouraged to attempt to learn music by ear alone and given exercises in applying the lesson’s scales through consistent playing and experimentation over provided music.
And finally for the Soul we will focus on the heart of music and connecting to the heart of ourselves as artist. We will discuss how we connect with music, and how we connect with our own inner artist. Students will be encouraged, through creative exercises, to become comfortable with creating unfamiliar sounds. We will develop a practice for clearing any predispositions of what’s “good” and “bad” in order to embrace creating something original.
