This collection of music, which appears in four volumes, is designed
to allow guitar players the opportunity to enjoy music of different
cultures and styles. It includes Renaissance, Baroque, Classical,
Romantic, Contemporary, Blues, Rock, Ragtime, Spanish, Flamenco,
Brazilian, Eastern, Country and Western and Traditional Folk Music.
The
music has been written and arranged to be played using the classical
guitar technique, often referred to as ‘finger-picking’, and has been
ordered according to degree of difficulty. These books contain solo,
duet and ensemble guitar pieces allowing players to develop and enjoy
both solo and ensemble performance skills. ‘Melodies for Beginners’ is,
as the title suggests, a collection of melodies for beginners (step one
to grade one). ‘Book One’ is of elementary to intermediate standard
(grade one to grade four). ‘Book Two’ is of intermediate to a more
advanced standard (grade four to proficiency).
