The variety of Christmas songs and Carols provides a fertile ground for fingerstyle guitarists. At the same time the familiarity of these tunes requires the guitarist to explore creative approaches in order to bring new textures and meanings to these timeless melodies.
Employing various tunings, unusual chord voicings, counterpoint lines, alternating bass, arpeggio techniques and lost more, El McMeen explains his arrangements of Christmas favourites that range from Jingle Bells, a tender version of Away In A Manger to an evocative and breathtaking arrangement of We Three Kings. Three different tunings are explored: standard, DADGAD and CGDGAD and the lesson includes a 40 page tab/music booklet of the pieces within.
