The guitar program teaches the fundamentals of music, note reading, and music theory, which are used as the basis of study while finger dexterity is being developed. The more advanced students extend their ability to read music for the guitar in a variety of musical styles. Various picking and strumming styles are developed in addition to different tunings, more difficult chords, and solo guitar selections. Rehearsals and performances outside the regular school day will be scheduled and will be required to fulfill requirements for the course. Beginning Guitar will perform Grade I-III level arrangements.
