Guitar
In Beginning Guitar, students will study the basic techniques needed to play guitar. Students learn chords, strum patterns, basic music reading, tablature reading and put all of those ideas towards playing simple guitar songs including traditional folk songs and popular music. Students will also explore different styles of music in this course including: traditional, jazz/blues and popular music.
Beginning Guitar Grading Policy
Starting with the 2013 - 2014 school year, we hope to offer an Intermediate Guitar class in which students will study more advanced techniques including barre chords, power chords and playing lead guitar parts. The students will also explore different styles of music including: traditional, jazz/blues and popular music.
