Reflections and Soundscapes of the Progressive Guitar

Please join us at Empty Sea Studios for this Saturday morning workshop for acoustic guitarists.

Topics will cover Goh Kurosawas approach to composition, improvisation, arranging, grooving, performance/practice concept, establishing a musical identity as well as musical genres including acoustic, electric, classical, finger-style, jazz, folk, rock, Japanese and flamenco.

Goh has taught clinics at universities, musical institutions, and festivals in the U.S and Japan. He is currently writing new works for the guitar which include over twenty small easy mid-level pieces (real music; not only for technical purposes) that will cover various styles of playing on nylon string, steel string, and electric guitars.

Some examples of the new works will be available as handouts at the clinic, as well as a fragment of Hitori (Part II: Groove) on Tabs and five-line staff notation.

This workshop is limited to 15 students, so reserve your place early!
