  • Description

    The course is suitable for intermediate and advanced guitarists willing to improve their musical skills, looking for inspiration and good fun. The course is unique as it focuses on musical as opposed to technical abilities. Learn tricks of the trade and practical tips - you won't learn it at school, you won't read it in the books. The topics include:

    - Ear training
    - Transcribing songs
    - Playing what you hear
    - Improvisation in blues and jazz contexts
    - Rhythm, timing, groove
    - Analysing music of the greats
    - Useful and useless music theory
    - Developing creativity

    The participants should bring their own instruments (electric or acoustic guitars), guitar cables and optionally practice amps.
