eBook
In addition to being available as a free pdf download, the beginning book is also presented in an eBook format. Each lesson includes audio recordings of every exercise, song, ensemble and solo piece. There are also a few tutorial videos of some of the classical works. This has been a convenient and valuable instructional and learning tool for both teacher and student. Both formats are free and located on the Guitar Curriculum page.

Piano Educators
Piano students and educators will find my first-year book on the Rock Guitar/Piano page. In addition to teaching students to play traditional classical piano, the book also introduces students to playing in popular styles, including how to read and understand chord symbols. Additionally, you'll also find intermediate-level classical repertoire that works well either as a supplement to the first-year book or to use with second-year students.

New Vocal and Instrumental Works
Instrumentalists and vocalists will find a variety of chamber music, with and without guitar, on the Vocal & Chamber page. I hope these works will be meaningful to you and your audience!
