| With 28 years' guitar
experience, Matt specializes in tailored lessons that allow even beginners
to start off playing the musical styles they enjoy. Even at your first
lesson, you may request songs by artists you choose. (Most songwriters'
work can be arranged for beginning guitar.) Styles taught include folk,
country, classic pop/rock, contemporary popular music (including teen pop),
and blues. (Note: Beginners who wish to start on electric guitar and play
mostly heavy metal should choose an instructor who specializes in hard
rock. There are many good ones in the area.)
Beginning students will learn
chords, chord progressions, and scales that will enable them to play dozens
of songs in a short time. Study of musical notation is optional for beginners.
Intermediate lessons include instruction in fingerstyle picking (if desired),
combining chords and melodies, styles of solo playing, varieties of guitar
notation (including tabs and standard music notation), and easy-to-learn
aspects of music theory practical to the guitarist.
