Was Sie in diesem Lehrbuch finden werden sind 50 Begleitungen für die Akustik-Gitarre ? 50 Begleitungen die für alle Kenntnisstufen geeignet sind und der Feder berühmter Songwriter und Gitarrenspieler wie Tim Buckley Tracy Chapman Nick Drake The Eagles Bob Dylan Neil Young Ben Harper Jason Mraz u.v.a.m. entspringen. Auch wenn die hier dargebotenen 50 Rhythmiken Ihnen vor allem die Gelegenheit bieten sollen Ihrer Spiel-Lust zu frönen so werden sie Ihnen doch indem Sie einfach ihrem Beispiel folgen ganz nebenbei und unbemerkt die unterschiedlichen für die Akustik-Gitarre kennzeichnenden Begleittechniken (will heißen das Akkord- und Arpeggiospiel Übergangs-leersaiten die geläufigsten rhythmischen Figuren verschiedene Barré-Klänge den Umgang mit dem Kapodaster Open Tunings und einiges andere mehr) beibringen. Die Video-DVD ermöglicht Ihnen sich die 50 Begleitungen anzuhören aber vor allem anzusehen ? bei eigentlicher und bei verlangsamter Spielgeschwindigkeit. Sie haben so die Möglichkeit die richtigen Handgriffe mit den richtigen Fingersätzen rhythmisch im Takt ausführen zu lernen(!) Die MP3-CD bietet Ihnen zu jeder Begleitung ein Playalong was insgesamt 50 ergibt. Diese werden in zwei verschiedenen Tempi abgespielt: im Konzerttempo (bei eigentlicher Spielgeschwindigkeit) und im Übungs-tempo (bei verlangsamter Spielgeschwindigkeit). In dem Playalong bei eigentlicher Spielgeschwindigkeit ist die Gitarre lediglich während des ersten Durchgangs zu hören dann fällt sie weg um Ihnen das Feld zu überlassen(!) Die Playalongs sind mit Absicht lang gehalten. Jedes davon dauert in etwa 3 bis 4 Minuten was insgesamt zu 6 h Musizieren führt(!) Auf diese Weise haben Sie genügend Zeit zum Üben und fürs Spielen werden bestmögliche Bedingungen geschaffen.
