Guitar Workshop


Japanese Folk Songs for Guitar

Old Town School of Folk Music, Chicago
Sunday October 13, 2013    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 - some simple, some more challenging, 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. 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
Visit daisyfield.com for more examples of these songs.
