A Collection of Hymns and Christmas Carols for Guitar


Book Description

A unique approach to solo guitar which applies music theory, arranging, and orchestration to the guitar. The arrangements in this book make the fingerboard more accessible for the experienced player or the novice. In addition, this approach could ultimately be applied to other songs (pop, rock, folk, etc) by any guitar student. It's in understanding the fingerboard, along with theory knowledge and musicianship skills, that enable the guitarist to unlock the somewhat elusive potential of the instrument as a complete sound, rather than just an accompaniment instrument.
