Gitarrenschule

Dieter Kreidler's new guitar method is aimed primarily at children and young people who want to learn to play the guitar in small steps. It contains numerous ensemble pieces and varied exercises for song accompaniment and is suited for both private and group lessons. Right from the beginning, the first experiences of ensemble playing are gained with the group. The method intentionally moves forward in small steps. The exercises and instrumental pieces of various styles are arranged in a progressive order and framed by inspiring illustrations, riddles, info boxes and creative exercises which stimulate the imagination and make the lessons a lot of fun. Volume 2 deepens the topics addressed in Volume 1 and introduces two-part playing with open bass strings as well as the change of position. Alvaro Pierri about the new guitar method: 'At the root of all masterly skills is a thorough training. Presented in a modern form, this educational work lays the solid foundation for all facets of guitar playing. It certainly is one of the best guitar methods for children of the past decades. Each volume combines traditional with modern didactic elements and is clearly and continuously related to the ideas and everyday life of today's youth. A perfect, well-founded, appealing and stimulating package! Dieter Kreidler's genuine love of and joy in music and his extensive musical experience as an artist and educationalist are noticeable throughout the whole textbook.'
