Learning to Play Guitar: Guitar Tremolo

Here, encounter two classical guitar titans, Agustín Barrios and Andrés Segovia, and grasp their contributions to the instrument. Study tremolo, which gives the illusion of a sustained note. Learn to read sixteenth-notes, add the E major chord, the major pentatonic scale, and use your tremolo and finger technique in the “Raindrop Etude”. This lecture, presented by Colin McAllister, is from Learning to Play Guitar: Chords, Scales, and Solos. Discover the joy of playing, reading, and understanding music from a master teacher, in this hands-on course.
