How and Why Book five
offers:
- Melody writing
- Chord progression
- Extended tonality
- Parallel harmony
Improvising with altered scales
The How and Why Guitar System, by
Al Carlson, touches on many of the basic aspects of music
- melody, harmony, rhythm, scales, chords, improvising,
ear-training, and music reading - while presenting beginning
guitarists with extremely clear, step-by-step lessons and
exercises. In 36 pages the softbound text attempts
to guide a musician from total ignorance of the instrument
to more confidence in the handling of simple meoldies, rhythm
structures, tuning, and some musical theory. Large,
carefully explained diagrams lead the student almost literally
from string to string, and fret to fret, from quuarter notes
on an open string to twelve-bar blues and chromatic scales.
-- Guitar Player, January 1977.
