Guitar 4 - Advanced
THIS IS A HYBRID COURSE - PLEASE SEE FURTHER DETAILS
Improve your guitar playing with Folk, Pop and Rock and very easy classical music. More advanced and faster than Level 3 but following a similar syllabus. Strong strumming is assumed and complex finger styles will be studied. The level of note reading and ensemble playing approaches Grade 3 standard, but is great fun when it all works together! Play comfortably in ensemble and play all the basic chords and their variations.
By the end of the course you will feel comfortable playing all of the main chords and their variations, majors, minors and sevenths, reading simple guitar tabs and play in a simple ensemble.

This course is for those who have completed ‘Guitar 3’ or who are very comfortable playing 15-20 chords and can read music well. This course leads to further stages of learning guitar skills, which in turn could lead to work as professional musician. Prosp User 4

Zoom login details will be sent to all learners in an email 24 hours before the course is due to start. (Please note, if you enrol less than 24 hours before a course starts, you will receive your zoom code as soon as you enrol.) Please keep your Zoom code safe as you will need the same code if you decide to join the class online.

You will need to join Zoom five minutes before your session is due to start and remain in the “waiting room”. Your tutor will then admit you to the class once your session is ready to begin.
