Udemy Read Music For Guitar Beginners TUTORiAL

Follow my Read Music for Guitar - Beginners class and you'll be able to read guitar sheet music and play the notes on guitar. This easy string-by-string method focuses on 2 or 3 notes at a time on each string. Master one string, then move on to the next. With a little regular practice, you'll find yourself unconsciously knowing what to play when you see the notes.

This is a proven method developed while teaching guitar for (can you believe it?) over 20 years! Media content included with the course is taken from my 3-book series Guitar in Real Time. With a little routine practice, you'll experience the satisfaction of reading and playing music on guitar.

What Exactly do you Learn?

You learn the notes in what is called "1st position" on each string. That is the position where the 1st finger (index) of your fretting hand stays next to the nut. The nut is the (usually beige colored) bone or hard plastic piece on the head of the guitar that the strings run over.

In the course, you learn to read notes on the 5-line staff using the treble clef.

You also get to know about -

time signatures
key signatures
note durations
rests

Part 2
This second part focuses on strings 4 through 6. These are the lower pitched "bass" notes on guitar.

You will also get to know about -

a new time signature
8th note rests
triplet notes
sharps and natural notes
rules for accidentals (sharps and flats)

Extra Benefits
The extra benefits that you get with this course are basic fingerstyle guitar lessons. You can follow these lessons to develop a good fingerstyle foundation. Or, simply use any method of string picking that you prefer.
