This is a 90 min, 8 week class held Tuesdays at 8:00 from July and August 2024
Students enrolled in Campfire Bootcamp 101 will be given the opportunity to play and sing fun, varied songs with other people and will be given instruction for various ways to approach accompaniment. The songs will be kept simple to afford greater, relaxed expression and more material. Towards the end of the course, the students will lead the class with a song of their own choosing. This is an adult course age 16+.
The techniques explored will include:
- open position chords
- barre chords
- upper triads
- basic lead technique
- arrangement
- percussive accompaniment
Although this class is guitar based, all acoustic instruments are welcome. No experience is necessary for guitarists, however basic guitar technique will be helpful. For other instruments, reading standard notation and basic technique is required.
Enrollees will be required to have their own instrument and a capo (for guitarists).
