Hello! I hope you are well and want to thank you for your interest in my guitar tuition program.

Content
Study of acoustic steel string guitar in Fingerstyle, illustrated by various right and left hand techniques, posture, tone, rhythmic attention, phrasing, expression, exercises, excerts of Pierre’s compositions and pieces suggested by students. The aim being to reckognise the means, identify what we wish to play (to listen to), with the goal of bringing together technique, intuition, performance and pleasure.

While I play and compose exclusively in DADGAD tuning, this tuition is aimed for ALL guitarists, whatever the tuning they use.
