Accoustic Guitar Tuition – useful Info with chords
All songs are written within a certain chord configuration and a particular key. You find major and minor chord progressions. Most of the songs are written and played in the major key progression. Minor chords are typically played for sad songs and they are quite familiar in classical music as well. If you want to play a certain song, it is important to determine these first. All music sheets will show you the major or minor key and will also outline the chords.
If you don’t have the sheet music you should learn what is frequently referred to as transcribing. But before you can begin to transcribe you should ideally be familiar with all your chords. Let’s say the song is in G major, you should know that the customary chords to follow could be C major, D major, E minor, A minor or B minor. Knowing this will make it easier for you to “figure” out what the next chord will be.
You should train your ear to listen out for the differences. Writing down the words of a song will also make your task much simpler. As soon as you have figured out which chord to play at any given point during the song, write that chord above the word. This way you don’t have to guess the chords the next time you play the song.
Once a good friend needed help thinking of something to give his girlfriend on their third anniversary. These things have never been easy, especially if you know the girl is rather picky. I know he had to start somewhere soon and I know the girl is very fond of mellow music. So I told him to get acoustic guitar lessons for beginners and try to play some acoustic music for his girlfriend. My friend knows nothing about music much less musical instruments.
He said it seemed impossible, saying that the plan needed enough time to work. I reminded him their anniversary was more than six months away. A well-known friend who took the same kind of acoustic guitar lessons for beginners turned out pretty good after three months. Besides, there was a lot of groups and websites giving these lessons online and the number of choices is enough for him to be excited about.
Like I told him, there were a lot of acoustic guitar lessons for beginners online, both free and paid lessons. I reminded him that our frequent friend took the paid lessons, which really didn’t cost too much compared to having an instructor come over to your place. Now this friend of mine, who had the anniversary gift dilemma, went looking for free lessons online. As I predicted, he did not have too much difficulty to find one that he would like.
It’s really good to know there are still people out there who are kind enough to share their talents with no money involved. He found an online site within three days and my friend followed the simple instructions on how to prepare even before the lessons started. It included getting the stringed instrument for himself and the site even had links where to get one. There were brand new guitars as well as pre-loved ones, those which were taken care of by a previous owner and are still in good working condition.
He continually updated me, as it was my idea to begin with. He said the guitar lessons for beginners were pretty comprehensive. It started out with how a guitar should be properly held, as well as lessons in chords and the important basics in guitar playing. After two weeks into the lessons, he could already play a whole simple song.
I could tell he was really enjoying the acoustic guitar lessons for beginners. I’m pretty sure he is excited as well to play for his girl on their first anniversary. Now that I think about it, I started wondering maybe I’ll join my friend on the acoustic guitar lessons for beginners, I know a little about playing guitars and I think it’s about time I hone those skills. You never know, I may meet that special someone whom I can play acoustic music to.
