Scenes From the Lessons (2)
LEARNING THE NOTES The notes of music and how they
relate to the guitar are taught in easy stages. As always no prior knowledge is
assumed. After a few notes are memorized the viewer plays simple tunes with
these along with the teacher
THE RUDIMENTS OF MUSIC
The musical staff, clefs and time values lose their mystery as they
are explained by the teacher with clear diagrams. Any points missed during the
lesson can be found in the Workbook, which also includes the relevant musical
examples and technique illustrations.
ELEMENTARY HARMONY Although the lessons are mainly
practical some time is given to explaining how chord are constructed. The
mysteries of musical harmony are made simple with clear and graphic examples.
