GuitarRoy High is proud to offer a complete guitar course. There are two classes in our program: Beginning and Advanced. Beginning Guitar is designed to teach the fundamentals of guitar. We stress the basics of tuning (with and without a tuner), chord symbol reading, rhythm reading, basic note reading, strumming patterns and finger picking. Tabulature is also covered. Each semester an in-class recital is held to showcase student progress. The Mel Bay book, "Mastering the Guitar Book Class Method 1A" is used in this course. Advanced Guitar. The class picks up where the beginning class left off. The purchase of a method book is required. Students are taught note reading, rhythm reading, lead sheet symbol reading and ensemble playing. Many different styles are covered in the course, from classical to modern rock. In the second quarter basic composing techniques are covered and the students compose a song of their own. Each student writes and records their piece. Instructor approval is required for students to enroll in the course (or successful completion of Beginning Guitar). CLASS FEES for 2007- 2008 PARTICIPATION FEE (paid to the Band Account) - $15.00. This fee is used to cover all administrative costs of the course. New books and other instructional materials also are bought with this fee. Please pay asap, all fees have been turned into the bookkeeper and must be paid BEFORE the end of school!!! Please bring the receipt to Mr. Windsor when you have done this. |
