Reading for the Contemporary Guitarist Volume 2 - Paperback

by Ian Robbins (Author)

Reading for the Contemporary Guitarist, Volume 2 is intended for guitarists who are preparing for a professional career in music. Assuming you are already familiar with the materials in Volume 1, this book will arm you with the tools you need to work as a modern guitar player. Authored by Ian Robbins, this text provides a new approach to guitar reading by focusing on multiple reading positions in the middle quadrant of the neck, syncopated 8^th and 16^th note figures and picking strategies, double and triple stops, and multiple articulations including Palm-Mutes, Let-Rings, single note bends and double stop bends. Each chapter concludes with a composition designed for two guitar players which focuses on the material learned in the unit.
