It is necessary
Guitar, tutorial, voice recorder
Instructions
Step 1
The beginning musician needs daily rehearsals. Classes 1-2 times a week will not bring any results, so immediately tune in to devote 30-40 minutes a day to the guitar.
Step 2
First of all, learn the basic chords and how to play the guitar (at least 2 options for fighting and busting). The easiest way to learn is by video tutorials. First, pay attention to the mechanism of hand movement, and then try to listen attentively to the sound and maintain the rhythm.
Step 3
When your guitar playing, maintaining a constant rhythm, becomes confident and melodic, you can start learning the first songs. In this case, hearing will develop in parallel with learning. Singing will help you with this. Sing as you play the guitar, listening to and trying to get into the musical differences in the melody.
Step 4
One exercise that will help you develop your hearing is listening to melodies, preferably from the classical repertoire, with careful listening. Try to understand which instruments are playing in the orchestra as a whole, which of them are the leitmotif, and which are auxiliary.
Step 5
Play simple tunes by ear. It is difficult, but rewarding. Many songs are based on basic chords. Do not forget to check the obtained result with the original.
Step 6
Learn to tune your guitar yourself, without a tuner. This will help your hearing develop very effectively. There is a special device - a tuning fork, which determines the pitch and sound of the first string. It is with him that you need to start tuning the guitar. For ease, try to sing along with the string.
