A school for young guitarists In almost all the duos in this booklet, the first guitar plays an independent piece. It can therefore also be performed without an accompanying guitar (2nd guitar). Nevertheless, the accompanying parts should also be practised and played alternately with partners. The 2nd guitar plays with a free touch from the beginning. The duets are intended for playing along and are therefore counted in. The two guitar parts are played separately on the stereo channels so that you can fade out your own part if necessary. The recordings of the solo pieces provide an impression of the compositions, but also represent a personal interpretation. MP3 downloads included This volume replaces the N2361.

Learn to play the guitar with fun, games and speed? The new Ping Pong Guitar School by Andreas Knoblich makes it possible! Note heads labelled with their note names, a step-by-step approach to learning chord shapes, and a set of chord cards featuring the most important strumming patterns make guitar lessons more varied and enjoyable, while helping to keep learners motivated over the long term. Special right-hand exercises (patterns) allow pupils to develop good playing technique from the very beginning. Alternating exercises also help learners master music reading more quickly. And to keep practice at home engaging, the new guitar method includes access to a streaming practice app. Includes detachable cards with rhythms and chords.

Mit Erklärungen und 200 Trainingsfragen rund um die Gitarre Schülern theoretisches Wissen zu vermitteln, ist keine leichte Aufgabe. Maria Swoboda und Andreas Kantenwein finden jedoch zu jedem Zeichen, das oft in Gitarrenausgaben vorkommt, eine kurze und verständliche Erklärung. In den gleich darauf folgenden, unterhaltsamen Fragen wird der Lernstoff aus vielfältigen Blickwinkeln betrachtet und somit gefestigt. Ein Wissenstraining am Ende von jedem der drei Teile verstärkt diesen Prozess. Eine Ausgabe, die nicht nur jüngere Schüler motiviert, sondern auch für ältere Gitarristen kurzweilig ist.

The guitar school contains almost a hundred songs and pieces that introduce children - from around the age of 7 - to playing the guitar. The guitar school was primarily designed for group lessons, but it can be used just as well in individual lessons. Melody playing, accompaniment with bass notes, two-part solo playing and, of course, song accompaniment using chord symbols are taught in small learning steps. Children's songs, joke songs, folklore from Germany and all over the world replace monotonous exercises. Hans Joachim Teschner has taken care to ensure that once the school has been learnt, it is possible to immediately move on to the extensive playing literature. Most of the songs and pieces can be listened to: simply scan the QR code on the respective piece and you're ready to go. There is a complete version of each of the songs for two guitars and a version with one guitar part missing. So you can play along, add the missing part or simply listen to the pieces. This edition replaces the previous edition N 2020 and the edition with CD.

The collection Preludes and Etudes for the Perfection of Technique comprises 12 preludes and 27 etudes for solo guitar. These compositions by Jan-Anton van Hoek were edited by Luise Walker (1910–1998) and offer an extensive repertoire for solo guitar performance. This edition is particularly suitable for guitar lessons, individual technical study and the expansion of the classical guitar repertoire.

Easy to play by following the fingering diagrams. Major and minor keys, church modes / modal jazz / blues, gypsy major, gypsy minor, pentatonic The scale studies currently available cover only the major and minor keys in notated form, and are therefore not freely transposable. Scales presented schematically as fingering diagrams, on the other hand, can be played starting from various basic notes, which enables beginners to learn how to play in higher registers at an early stage. The aim of this publication is to make scales playable for the widest possible range of guitarists.

Scales and Technical Studies These studies are intended to refine the fundamentals of playing technique, which are a requirement for free and artistic interpretation. The exercises, designed for intermediate and advanced levels, are intended to supply guitarists with the necessary technical skills to master the technical demands of playing with increasing confidence, ease and musical mastery. Particularly important are the scale exercises. These are available in all major and minor keys, as well as in the interval forms of thirds, sixths and octaves, which are essential for further technical training. The carefully crafted fingerings enable systematic practice and support the development of evenness, economy of movement and technical confidence. This edition includes explanations and performance notes in German and English.

Napoléon Coste’s 25 Études , Op. 38, are part of the established study repertoire for the classical guitar of the 19th century. The collection comprises 25 pieces for guitar and has been handed down under the French title ‘Vingt-cinq études de genre pour la guitare’. This edition has been edited by the Austrian guitarist and teacher Luise Walker, who has also provided fingering.

Matteo Carcassi’s 25 Études , Op. 60, are part of the established classical guitar repertoire. The collection comprises 25 études for solo guitar and has been handed down under the title ‘25 Études mélodiques et progressives’. In these études, Carcassi combines technical exercises with melodically structured musical phrases. This edition, edited by Carl Dobrauz, presents the 25 Études, Op. 60, in a score suitable for guitar lessons and study. Carcassi’s Études, Op. 60, have been published in numerous historical and modern editions and are among the most frequently used study pieces in classical guitar literature.

Melodic Studies for Flamenco and Classical Guitar With Georg Rist’s exercises, beginners become acquainted with the various forms of arpeggios, while more advanced players can use them to refine their technique and develop greater playing endurance. The tremolo, for which the term “Spanish silver tones” is perhaps the most evocative description, is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and fascinating techniques of guitar playing. A flexible command of arpeggio technique is likewise indispensable both for proficiency on the classical guitar and for the performance of flamenco pieces. The accompanying playing material provides an additional opportunity to develop this skill through practical application.
