About this title

Synopsis

Ten songs for acoustic guitar that sound like they've been written for Aerosmith, Celine Dion, Metallica, Alanis Morissette, etc. You can either expand your solo repertoire by playing the etudes unaccompanied, or play along with the tracks on the enclosed CD and get valuable experience practicing in a band situation. For each etude, the author includes preliminary technical exercises for the right and left hands to help eliminate any technical difficulties you may encounter. For the more adventurous or advanced player, the author provides the scales or notes from the songs which can be used for a few years. Those who have been playing longer can have fun with improvisation and chordal accompaniment. In notation and tablature.

About the Author

Thorsten Plath, born in 1961, is one of the most sought-after guitarists in the north of Germany. His diverse musical resume has led him through many genres of music.

In the 90s, he toured through Germany with the jazz duo 'Take Two' and this resulted in three CD releases. He has played jazz with Florian Poser, Frank Itt, the American guitarist John Stowell and many more. At the moment, he plays solo under the name 'Guijaygoo' as an electric and loop musician. Most recently, his children's musical 'Ohne Fups lauft nix' (2011), which he worked on as a freelance composer, premiered in Flensburg. As a contracted composer, he works for film and advertising agencies. He has written 4 guitar books, distributed by the AMA Publishing House. He was a workshop lecturer at the University for Music in Hamburg, has been lecturing at the jazz workshop 'Jazzit' for 10 years and has also taught for many years at the University for the Arts and the Music School in Bremen.
