Guitar lessons teach the essential skills of playing guitar and music:
- Picking – how to use a pick correctly and efficiently
- Chords – the basis of songs
- Arpeggios – chords played one note at a time, e.g. the start of “Hotel California”
- Scales – determine the notes used in melodies and in most guitar solos
- Rhythm – how to count beats and keep time
- Reading – learn to play sheet music, lead sheets and communicate with other musicians
- Aural – hear chords, intervals and harmony to learn songs by ear
For intermediate and advanced students developing these skills can lead to the AMEB CPM (Contemporary Popular Music) syllabus with the option of sitting the AMEB CPM guitar exams. The AMEB CPM syllabus helps create flexible players for a range of musical styles such as rock, blues, jazz, funk etc and teaches students essential guitar techniques and music theory.
