How To Play The Guitar Properly In 12 Weeks by Michael Macdonald

Michael Macdonald is a classically trained musician who has studied and taught the guitar for more than 30 years. He has developed this programme to teach complete beginners how to play the guitar properly.


At the end of the 12 weeks, having worked through the lessons and>accompanying video tutorials, you will be able to confidently perform 4 pieces of music from start to finish: a 12-bar blues song, a rock song, a piece of traditional flamenco music and a classical guitar composition.


Each piece has been chosen to teach the essential techniques and knowledge required for your continued learning:


  • You will play with and without a plectrum, play basic chords fluently, learn the names of the notes and chords on the guitar and how to tune it.
  • You will strum various different rhythms as well as pick melodies.
  • You will learn the theory and style behind each piece with the guitar in your hand, and you will build a solid foundation on which to continue learning and spend the rest of your life proudly calling yourself a guitarist.


MacDonald, Michael: - Michael MacDonald is Frederick L. Schuman Professor of International Relations at Williams College.
