During the pandemic I decided to use all the experience I accumulated teaching for many years at Degree Level and started a project, a series of lessons, called “The Learning Guitar Series”. They are aimed at anybody who wants to understand better the architecture and vocabulary of music and of the guitar in particular.
I called it a “Vocabulary” because the analogy with spoken language is an appropriate one, and in the series I discuss what can be defined as “The alphabet”, “the Words” we can create from it and then how to built “Sentences”. I also discuss “how to study” in order to achieve maximum retention using muscle memory and photographic memory. For this reasons new lessons are posted in intervals of roughly three weeks so to give you the chance to dig into each individual topic for long enough. The underlying philosophy is to teach you how music works rather than teaching you a specific genre as it is my believe, confirmed by the hundreds of students I successfully trained, that, once you have a vocabulary, you can play any style of music you wish to play. The lessons are accompanied by many hours of FREE videos which are available from my YOUTUBE channel, backing tracks and hundreds of pages of PDFs, some of which are free and some of which can be individually purchased on this page for a low price. Alternatively I have set up a PATREON page to those of you who want to support this project by subscribing to it, paying a small monthly fee, and have access to all that I publish.
