The performers in this 60 minute DVD express different
traditions, personalities and stylistic approaches through their guitars. Yet
there is a commonality, not only in the instrument and fundamental approach to
it but also in the choice of these players to take risks and to respect
tradition. Bob Brozman plays Hawaiian Greetings unlike any of the Hawaiian
guitarists of the 1920s, yet his version overflows with love of his sources.
Peppino D'Agostino uses unorthodox techniques to transform his guitar into a
Brazilian rhythm band. Titles include: Stefan Grossman: Sheebeg An
Sheemore · Bob Brozman: Hawaiian Greetings · Brad Jones: Funky Fingers · Martin
Simpson: Medley: Lord Gregory/Bob's Song · Peppino D'Agostino: Grand Canyon,

Martin Carthy - British Fingerstyle
Guitar - DVD
Martin Carthy has forged his own
personal and unusual approach to fingerstyle guitar. He has developed his own tunings and
right hand techniques to enable him to play British traditional folk music. This body of music is rooted in
a vocal tradition of hundreds of years as well as a strong dance culture. It is not bound by any time or bar
structure. The guitarist must find ways to explore, accent and embellish these melodies. Martin has successfully
done this with the CGCDGA tuning. He plays with a heavy percussive attack reminiscent of a country bluesman
and the gritty rhythm of a diatonic accordion player. He has a unique sense of phrasing and a strong
emotional and atmospheric feel for his music. In this video lesson, Martin explains in detail his playing
techniques and style for seven of his most popular arrangements. Titles include: "Old Tom of Oxford, The
Heroes of St. Valery, The Siege Of Delhi, La Cardeuse, McVeagh, The Harry Lime Theme, Seven Yellow
Gypsies".

Alex
de Grassi pioneered the techniques that have
become standard in the repertoire of many of today's acoustic fingerstylists.
Here's a rare glimpse of a master guitarist's technique at work. Alex de Grassi
has a lot to say about melodies and counter-melodies, two-hand tapping,
percussive slapping, double hammer-ons, harmonics, and how to develop dynamic
chord structures. He teaches his compositions in a clear way, discussing
voicings, tunings, variations on melody and the technique you'll need to put it
all together. Alex takes you on an in-depth exploration of three of his
most popular pieces: the haunting melodies of Western and Lost In
The Woods as well as his funky classic The Monkulator. Not only
will Alex expand your fingerstyle technique, you'll have an ear-opening lesson
in the power of chords and melodies from a master
musician and guitarist!

Stefan Grossman - Fingerpicking Delights - Book and 3 CDs
The blues ballad "Shining Shadows" played in the key of C and using an
alternating bass with sophisticated chord voicings. "Ms. Josephine Ayresis"
played in the key of D and was influenced by the playing of the great Bahamian
guitarist Joseph Spence. When I lived in Europe I was greatly
influenced by the playing of Bert Jansch, Martin Carthy and John Renbourn. "The
Way She Walks" is a three part instrumental. The first section was written by
Archie Fisher and taught to me by Martin Carthy. I put together the second and
third sections. "Snap A Little Owl" is a John Renbourn composition with a steady
walking bass played against a strong melodic lead line. Also taught are two
complex jazz oriented instrumentals. "Tightrope" and "Danish Drone" (also
recorded as Kicking Up The Dust) are both played in dropped D tuning and feature
varying time signatures and complex chording.

I have used tunings for many of my original compositions and in this

have discovered. The first lesson we delve into the open G tuning and the
original three part composition "Lullaby For Anna". This is followed by an
arrangement of The Carter Family’s "Working On The New Railroad". The Open Gm
tuning is one that I have long favored. It is ideal for many settings and in
this second lesson we look at three blues oriented instrumentals: "Capricorn
Five, Lament For A Goodman and Keeper Of The Vine". Our last lesson continues
our explorations into the Open Gm tuning with two blues suites: "Sparkling On
The Wind and The Three Kingdoms (The Vamp Of Oblivion)".

Winfield Fingerstyle Champion Peter Huttlinger provides you with the advice, practice routines and exercises
that will enable you to play with accuracy, good tone, strict timing and confidence! Peter makes this important topic

will help you with every piece of music you play, regardless of style. Moving to the left hand, you'll learn arpeggios
and the "spelling" of chords, as well as Peter's foolproof method for learning every note on the fingerboard.
Chromatic scale exercises up and down the fretboard will work wonders for strength and agility in both your
right and left hands. Finally, Peter puts all these exercises into practice with a bouncy,
Brazilian bossa nova chord progression work-out and a gorgeous arrangement of
the Spanish guitar masterpiece "Romanza". This DVD will give you months of
material to work on and Peter's regimen will make you a stronger, more accurate
guitar player!

the music. Songs include: "Danny Boy, Amazing Grace, America the Beautiful, The

Paul Mehling -
Arpeggio Power! - DVD
Arpeggios (chords played as
individual notes) are an indispensable component of music and can become an
invaluable tool in your musical bag of tricks. Many melodies are built upon
arpeggios, and their intervals and patterns are the key to understanding
improvisation. In short, arpeggio knowledge can set you apart from other guitar
players. Paul Mehling has methodically created a program of drills and exercises
that “connect the dots,” offering a disciplined approach to practicing for
guaranteed results. He starts you off with basic first-position chords, then
works his way through increasingly more complex chord forms, from open position
to closed shapes moving freely up the neck. He covers major, minor, 6th,
dominant 7th,diminished and other arpeggiated chord forms. Throughout
the lesson, Paul provides numerous tips and points of advice to help you build
your playing chops and increase your familiarity with the guitar fretboard.
You’ll learn to understand how each chord is built and how improvisation grows
out of these exercises. Guitarists at all levels will gain knowledge of the
fingerboard, improve improvisational skills and build left- and right-hand power
and speed!
