Summary: Introduces E string notes up to the twelfth-fret E, the blues scale, and a moveable F minor chord shape.

Please see Guitar Lesson 1 for notes about this course. Here are PDF files of the Lesson Page, the Home Practice Page, and the Song Sheet for this lesson. There are ensembles for this lesson on both Ensemble Page 17 and Ensemble Page 18

The final ten lessons in this course include introductions to more advanced techniques and skills. The main goal here is to give students a taste of the variety of possibilities, so that they can decide what skills they would like to master. Many students will already be working through these lessons somewhat slowly, while simultaneously working on other music. Even those who have been moving along quickly may want to slow down at this point, or may want to pick and choose skills to master as they become wanted or useful.
