Do you want to play some of the most flashy, virtuosic, exciting, and emotionally charged guitar music around? Then this book is for you. When the great Gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt fused American Jazz with the stylings of the French Musette Bal and his native Gypsy melodies, little did he know he had created a whole new musical genre. This book will teach you how to emulate and create within the Gypsy Jazz style which has evolved in the generations since Reinhardt’s early death in 1952. Prepare to be awed, humbled, and inspired.
From Jamie's list on to help you be great at guitar.
