Those who have learned the first chords, strumming, and picking patterns often look for advanced literature for playing melodies on the guitar. This is where Reinhold Pomaska's fingerpicking books come in. Detailed video material is part of the concept, allowing even beginners to experience quick success. Knowledge of music notation is not necessary, as all songs are presented using the familiar, easy-to-understand tablature format. The 12 international English-language songs in this book are offered in two levels of difficulty that build on each other: - Level 1 includes the melody and a simple bass line. - Level 2 presents a slightly more challenging version. The included DVD features each song in Levels 1 and 2 on video. In addition to a recording at normal speed, there is also a slow-motion version. This allows for a clear view of the finger positions and picking technique, making it easy to follow along and practice.
