Copy, Play & Learn Mr. Bryce Leader

Whether they are learning to speak, write or perform a sporting activity, young children learn physical skills naturally by imitating those around them and they often learn to read words through repetition and association. These are the same approaches to learning that this book, ?Copy, Play and Learn Guitar the Easy, Fun Way for Young People? uses in teaching children how to learn to play the guitar and read and interpret music. Based on songs designed to engage and appeal to young people, this book aims to develop musicianship, note reading, fine motor skills and encourages children to recognise and play recurring rhythmic and melodic patterns in varying harmonic settings as they piece together an evolving story based on a boy, his friends and family. For the teacher, finger dexterity exercises of both hands are isolated and drilled and for the student, these are turned into real songs. By observing and imitating a visually logical pattern of notes as demonstrated by their teacher, a young person can confidently play the easy and fun pieces to a vibrant backing track. The child develops the ability to process and interpret pitch and rhythm as they play the guitar!
