This class is perfect for guitar players with a strong foundation who want to expand their playing to include rhythms and techniques from many traditions and instruments. By exploring music from around the world, we will expand our creative palette, building on our skills while creating new possibilities in our playing!
In this class, we will:
- Explore rhythm patterns including cumbia, Bossanova, Baladi, and more
- Learn percussive guitar techniques

At the end of this eight-week course, students will have a better understanding of right-hand techniques and rhythms and will have gained confidence in exploring new genres of guitar playing.
