Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Although I have yet to buy other classical guitar instruction videos, I rated this one a 5 because it was just what I was looking for. Mr. Hand is very down to earth and reviews from the very beginning basics to more advanced techniques. What I found most useful was his focus on learning to relax and enjoy making music. Also, his tips regarding speed and dexterity have actually help improve my technique with arpeggios and tremolo. It didn't really hit me until a couple weeks after watching the video. As a bonus the sheet music for the material used on the video comes with it.

Here's a lesson for both classical musicians and fingerstyle guitarists who want to discover their "natural dexterity" for speed, tone and effortless technique! Whether you are a beginning or advanced guitarist, you will benefit from Fred Hand's in-depth explorationof the fundamental principles of classical guitar technique. "Your body and mind have an innate ability to express the music that you hear," says Hand, "you only need to tap into this source." By learning the essentials of good playing, such as posture, relaxation, fingernail shaping and the correct application of the free stroke and rest stroke, you will quickly become a smoother and more efficient player. As you practice your arpeggios, scales, vibrato, trills and cross-string trills, you'll learn to apply them to beautiful classical-style pieces such as John Dowland's "Lady Hunnsden's Puffe" and a dance by Gaspar Sanz. Hand's own compositions, "A Celtic Tale," "Heartsong " and "Lesley's Song" are perfect examples of the application of classical techniques to pieces in a contemporary setting. This is a lesson that will dramatically improve the playing of both classical musicians and fingerstyle guitarists of other tradition.
