Play Guitar!

Week 7, 8 | M, Tu, W, Th, F | Turner 208 | Ages 10 and up

Guitar basics in one week! While this course is designed for beginners, players who are more advanced will acquire new information and be challenged. We will cover chords in three keys and work on strumming in different styles while we play folk, country, blues and rock tunes. The best thing about taking class lessons is that someone is always playing the correct notes or chords at the correct time, so students learn more quickly and with confidence. 

You may borrow a Chautauqua guitar for the week or bring your own.

Class Times

Students may bring their own guitar if they would like to. If not, Chautauqua can provide the guitar.
