Learn to Rock the Classics: the Sonata di Chitarra
In our new promotional video, popular bass guitarist and music educator Yonit Spiegelman shows guitar beginner Colin some basics by ably using a great tune -- a tune truly for the ages.
In the short narrative, we see Yonit, Colin, and Colin's mom Alison kicking things off in a brief goal-setting conversation, and then a couple of subsequent lessons online, where the teacher and student conveniently connect from their respective home and studio. In the final scene, Colin can play the song, which is a little tricky - and it is both a baroque melody and a quite familiar one.
It's the Sonata de Chitarra by Giovanni Batista Granata, transcribed below by flamenco and classical guitarist and educator Leah Kruszewski.
