These challenging sessions will propel your solo acoustic playing to new heights. In a methodic breakdown of some of his most popular pieces, Laurence Juber reveals the percussive techniques and chord voicings he uses to create Baroque-inflected textures, atmosphere and color. And, while building your repertoire, Laurence loads you up with exercises to improve your fluidity.

Laurence starts with a series of simple chord shapes and barres, right-hand strumming patterns, moving bass lines and the fingertip technique he favors for warm tone and Renaissance flavor. You'll soon know how to make a melody "pop out" of any tune and get a master's eye view of open-string harmonics and ringing cascades.
