Fingerstyle Guitar Workshop

  • Opus 1604 5 Rue Verdaine Lutry, VD, 1095 Switzerland (map)

Hosted by the wonder Opus 1604
Approach the guitar as its own full band: support the melody with accompaniment, bass, percussion... and step into a way of playing called "fingerstyle". Drop your pick for a couple of hours and join us to learn some cool fingerstyle techniques and composition ideas for the acoustic guitar in a small & friendly group of 6 people!

Workshop contents:

  • Fingerstyle techniques to enhance your playing:

    • Harp harmonics

    • Back beats

    • Right hand rolls and techniques

    • Boom chick

    • Rasgueado

  • Composing for fingerstyle

  • Inspiration, technique, composition - How they work together to help you compose

  • Your questions!

Pre-requisites:

Whether you simply know your guitar basics (i.e. can play basic chords or power chords, strumming, picking) or are a more advanced player, there will be plenty to experience & learn for all levels in this intimate workshop. Enthusiasm prevails over skill so that everyone can walk away having learned something new. You will be encouraged to push your limits & gain confidence whatever your level of playing & ability.

Location: Rue Verdaine 5, 1095 Lutry Number of participants: 6 max.
