Description
playing songs, that is the most fun and significant thing for me as a guitar player, that is what I mainly do when I'm playing. Learning new songs, widening my repertoire, is what motivates my playing, and keeps my enthusiasm burning. It sets new challenges, allows you to learn new techniques, new chord shapes and voicings, and new picking patterns.
In this course, I created fingerstyle arrangements for 6 songs, from beginner to intermediate level. Such as Oh Susanna, Choral from Beethoven 9th Symphony, El Condor Pasa, Greensleeves, Scarborough Fair, and The House Of The Rising Sun.
Through these arrangements, we'll learn the alternate bass picking technique, and how to develop thumb and fingers independence. We'll learn how to combine harmony and melody together. We'll learn songs in the key of G major, C major, A minor & E minor, in 4/4, 3/4 & 6/8 time signatures.
And all of that, with a practical thorough method, like in a private 1 on 1 lesson, no stone will be left unturned. Every song is broken into smaller digestible pieces, so you can practice each bar separately and learn through your hands.
So, grab your guitar and join me in the Fingerstyle Guitar Songbook!

Instructor
Born in Dimona, A small city in the south of Israel. Started playing the guitar a the age of 12.5, and since then never put it down. Learned classical guitar at the local conservatorium, and contemporary music and blues with local guitar teachers. At first, I loved to learn the songs of The Beatles. A turning point in my guitar playing was when I discovered folk music, and the beauty of fingerstyle guitar, with artists like Bert Jansch, John Renbourn, Nick Drake, Tommy Emmanuel, and more.
Since then (about 16 years ago), I have mainly played fingerstyle guitar, I compose and arrange for fingerstyle guitar and love it very much.
In the last ten years, I mainly taught guitar playing, from kids to adults, I try to reveal them to the magic of guitar playing and the magic of acoustic and fingerstyle guitar, many of my students buying acoustic guitars which for me is a great achievement.
