Classroom Guitar Ensembles: Volume 1: DELUXE Teacher Edition
About this ebook
8 pieces for guitar ensemble that your students will love.
Designed with classroom guitar in mind, these ensemble pieces are ready to use for class and performances either entirely on acoustic guitars or with small groups on electric instruments. The parts are entirely in Treble Clef making it easy to incorporate bass parts into the ensemble. The difficulty level is easy enough for a year end concert with beginners. To preview the pieces, feel free to download the mp3 play-a-long tracks from speaktometoday.com/b&rmusic
The tracks are split left to right so that you can eliminate either the rhythm part or the lead part. This is especially helpful for concert preparation and distance learning situations.
The DELUXE Teacher Edition includes the scores, student parts, as well as information about each piece. Your students will learn how to:
Play melodies, chords, and bass lines (in Treble Clef)
Play melodies in 1st, 2nd, and 5th positions
Use strumming patterns and open chords
Read below-the-staff ledger lines
Free mp3 downloadable play-a-long tracks
