Guitar Workshop


Old Town School of Folk Music, Chicago
Sunday Oct 7, 2012    2pm

Japanese folk songs were written hundreds of years ago for traditional instruments of the time. These songs have subtle, but beautiful haunting melodies. And, they sound great on the guitar. We’ll learn several songs by working through tab notation. If you are a beginning player and want to move beyond strumming, this is a great opportunity to learn to pluck individual melody notes using your fingers or a pick.  We will emphasize efficient fingering technique, positions, and hammer-ons.  Techniques learned here can be applied to other styles of playing.  For more advanced guitar players, this is an opportunity to try something new. All levels of players are welcome – let’s learn something different ! Listen to Gonbe Ga Tanemaku
