BACK COVER
The New York Guitar Method series is structured to enable a total beginner to learn the tools necessary to become a master musician from the ground up. This Primer Book One should be used as a first step toward New York Guitar Method Primer Book Two and Primer Ensemble Book Two. All three books are prerequisites for students entering NYU as a jazz guitar major and for students wishing to go to the New York Guitar Summer Program at NYU.
Muse Eek Publishing Company hosts two on-line resources in conjunction with this book. A "Frequently Asked Questions" page (FAQ) is available where students can ask the author questions that may arise as they work. There is also a free "member's section" where book owners can download other files specific to this book and/or other help files to further their music education.
Unlike traditional situations where the reader is left on their own after purchase of a text, Muse Eek Publishing seeks to keep the reader/student engaged and interactive with the author. With each book you are beginning a relationship in which help and direction are always available to make sure you are learning correctly.
This book is a required text at New York University and Princeton University and is recommended for music students ages 13 and up.
