Strumming the Guitar: Guitar Strumming for Beginners and Upward with Audio and Video

Learn to strum the guitar with Strumming the Guitar Book 1. A detailed course for beginners and upward. Separate sections take on strumming first, followed by changing between chords, then coordinating chord changes with strumming, in order to maintain a thorough approach throughout with components broken down at every level. With this incremental method, this guitar strumming book enables the beginner to absorb everything important from the start and progress consistently as the difficulty level increases. Guitar Strumming Techniques - The basics of strumming are covered from the ground up for the beginner, assisted with professional hand drawn illustrations. Learn how to hold the plectrum for strumming, how to strum guitar chords that require you to miss certain strings, pre-emptive chord changing, open strums and more. Guitar Strumming Patterns - There are over 80 different guitar strumming patterns throughout the book, all written with easy-to-understand, graphical, strumming diagrams. Reading Rhythmical Notation - Understand the common language of music by becoming familiar with rhythmical notation. Learn whole notes, half notes, quarter notes, eighth notes and their equivalent rests, dotted notes, ties and the basics of time signatures. All shown with clear charts and diagrams. Guitar Chord Progressions - Made up almost entirely of open chords (chords that include open strings), the book has 30 different chords, which feature in over 50 chord change exercises, which are divided into seven larger groups of progressing difficulty. The book starts with the easiest chord changes in which fretboard finger locations can be shared, moving to chord changes in which fingers shift up or down the fretboard with the same chord shape, then more difficult chord changes where fingers need to relocate in independent directions, such as C major to G major open chords or Aadd9 to Dmaj7 open chords. Guitar Rhythm Exercises and Guitar Music with Chords - Over 170 strumming exercises and 10 musical study pieces. Every section includes strumming exercises that combine chord changes with strumming. Each section concludes with a musical study piece using the skills studied in styles of Slow Pop, Spanish, Grunge and Country Pop. Audio and Video - All exercises and musical study pieces are demonstrated with audio (downloadable 154 MB). All study pieces have a demonstration audio track and a backing audio track in which the rhythm guitar part has been removed for you to play over. Online videos (of which there are 21 in total size of 775 MB) are also used to enhance explanations. Grab Your Copy Today and learn to strum the guitar with confidence!
