This class, organized over three quarters, is designed for guitar players at the intermediate level. In Session I, participants will start with a review of basic scales theory, intervals and chord construction, working toward building progressions with an end goal of playing the songs and harmony of the American standards and jazz compositions of the 20th century. This is an applied theory class with students learning to play and applying the examples discussed in class.
