Visiting a Village by Bobbie Kalman

Greg Varhaug is a former staff writer for Houston's NBIZ Magazine. He's also been a private music teacher for over twenty-five years. In this book, he outlines a program for teaching modern styles, like rock, blues, country and jazz - styles which aren't composed in standard notation. He focuses on teaching to the real working methods of modern musicians and producers, and on the inner experiences and mental processes behind learning, playing, and listening to music. This book is a reality check for students, parents and teachers. If you've tried and failed at music, you should take another look, this time from a modern perspective.

* Why lessons based on reading-method books are not the best way to learn rock, country, and related styles

* How modern music is created

* A look at the history of modern music in terms of it's complicated relationship with standard notation

* Reading music by ear

* Perfect pitch versus relative pitch

* How we process musical information

* Understanding music teachers, and the Music Education Establishment

* How piano players can learn to improvise like guitar players (Why do guitar players all know instinctively how to play by ear?)

* How to attain the Zen of reading music

* The different types of published sheet music: lead sheets, chord charts, scores, solo arrangements, note-for-note transcription, and chords-over-lyrics charts

* Tips on making sure you get the right equipment, and at the best price

* Includes A Manifesto For Modern Music Education, and Guidelines For Modal Blues Harmony, and The Golden Age of Rock Radio Recreated on Spotify and Youtube
