The demand for learning guitar has been on the rise, now more than ever in Singapore. Increasingly, more people are looking to picking up the guitar as their first musical instrument.
Classical Guitar
If you plan to take up classical guitar lessons, you've come to the right place. Classical guitar can be considered the basis where you will start to build a strong foundation in guitar playing, including music theory and musicianship. Not only will you get to learn the proper techniques, you may also progress to other genres like jazz, blues, latin, pop and soft rock.
The classical guitar is a lyrical and versatile instrument. You can play solo, or accompanying someone. You can write parts for different voices, and play them all at once. It is portable, so you can bring it along everywhere you go. It is an intimate instrument, because you make direct contact with the strings to produce the sound. Your finger nails are at work, instead of using a pick. Few instruments give you that kind of intimacy as the guitar. And it is a great tool for composition!
Our guitar curriculum follows the orthodox pedagogy as practiced by the Spanish guitar maestros.
Acoustic Guitar
Are you keen to take up acoustic guitar lessons? The sound of an acoustic guitar is delicate and pleasing to the appreciative ear. It brings out a warm tone, and is best suited to play the everyday pop songs that one loves. That said, acoustic guitar is also well suited for a varied genre, including jazz, soft rock, blues, and general rhythmic chords. There are a lot of great songs that can be played solely by the acoustic guitar without needing an entire band. You can sit on your bed and play the versatile instrument, without disturbing your neighbors. But you can also plug in to an amplifier to fire up the chords and progressions! More importantly, you can learn to play and sing, and be your own One-Man-Band!
Many people think they can self-teach to play the guitar. But it is not the most effective way because one may be picking up the wrong habits, or worse, getting the concepts wrong. Our acoustic guitar classes are paired by the guidance and feedback of a good, personal guitar teacher, who always tracks your progress, ensuring you will succeed at the end.
At About Music, you will learn to master the instrument in no time.
