Synopsis
The New York Guitar Method series is structured to enable a total beginner to learn the tools necessary to become a master musician from the ground up. This Primer Book One should be used as a first step toward New York Guitar Method Primer Book Two and Primer Ensemble Book Two. All three books are prerequisites for students entering NYU as a jazz guitar major and for students wishing to go to the New York Guitar Summer Program at NYU. Because some readers may be skipping back and forth between chapters, I have provided a great deal of repetition in this book to make sure no information is overlooked. For some this repetition may feel annoying but for others it can be a learning tool. PLEASE NOTE This is the same book as ISBN 1594899118. ISBN 1594899118 is out of print in the UK.
