Summary of This Method
This method brings together 20 great ragtimes arranged for guitar by Stefan Grossman, with a clear goal: to immerse you in the world of ragtime guitar through a selection of pieces that are both musical and instructive. The repertoire is based on both traditional tunes and titles by emblematic composers and guitarists, allowing for a variety of colors, alternating basses, syncopations, and phrasing typical of the style.
You will find pieces associated with Scott Joplin and Tom Turpin, as well as essential influences from fingerstyle and rural blues with Elizabeth Cotten, Mississippi John Hurt, Sam McGee, and Reverend Gary Davis. The selection also includes works by Scott Hayden, Ton Van Bergeyk, and, of course, Stefan Grossman, offering a coherent overview of ragtime and its connections with blues and traditional picking.
The included CD is a true educational asset: with each track recorded, you can work on listening skills, bass consistency, syncopation accuracy, and voice articulation (melody, counterpoint, accompaniment). An ideal resource for autonomous progress, refining groove, and developing a solid acoustic guitar technique in a style that is both demanding and particularly rewarding.
