DescriptionA handy resource for children and early learners of the guitar and keyboard. Chords are one of the most important ways that children can learn about music, offering a fast route into playing with others and encouraging a feeling for structure and composition.With this new book you can see the chord, then reach for your phone and hear the chord. Using any free QR code reader app (Android, iPhone, Blackberry, Windows) a web site opens automatically and you can listen to the chord as a strum, an arpeggio (each note played separately) and hear it as a piano chord and arpeggio. Of course, Flame Tree’s straightforward, easy-to-use diagrams make this a fantastic new book for beginners and intermediate players, for home, studio and rehearsal.Author BiographyJake Jackson is writer, editor and contributor to over 20 music books, including The Beginner’s Guide to Reading Music, How to Play Classic Riffs and Play Flamenco.
