Music Theory For Guitarists (Digital Download)

Description

Grammy-Award winning guitarist and acclaimed author Mark Hanson has presented in-person workshops for decades. Now he is bringing them directly to you in your space! In the first of three Pilot Project videos — originally broadcast in March of 2020 — Mark presents this nearly two-hour workshop specifically for guitarists who want to better understand how the music that we play works. There is no need to read music! Mark provides the information in digestible segments, with enjoyable, pertinent stories added along the way.  Topics covered: the amazing Physics of Sound, Scales & Intervals, Chord Building, the Ubiquitous Tri-Tone, Seventh Chords, Guitar Keys and Parallel Sixths. Tunes to play: Mark’s famous “Sweet Rotunda” (it played on “Martha Stewart LIving”) for its parallel sixths, and the augmented “Taylor’s Ferry” with its recently added key change (to G) and bridge sections. Very enjoyable learning with lots of material to play!
