New and fascinating work (instruction and commentary) on Chet Atkins. Close-up views of right & Left Hands. Graded progression from Part 1 to Part 2 (alternating bass to advanced harmonics). Like having a private master class from a Master Coach!
Watch the author on DVD teaching and conveying his very special knowledge of guitar and Chet. Hosted by John McClellan, Chet Atkins in Three Dimensions Chet Licks clearly explains and defines the musical philosophy and style that made Chet Atkins the "singular" figure of fingerstyle guitar in the 20th century.
Virtuoso guitarist and friend of the Atkins family, John demonstrates Chet's techniques (alternating bass, slurs, cross-string scales, arpeggios, tone production artificial harmonics and more and discusses the key elements of Chet's musicianship.
John uses graded musical examples from pieces such as "Avalon," "Take Five," "Canned Heat," "Mainstreet Breakdown" and many others. Filmed with high quality video and audio, "Chet Licks" is a must for the guitarist who desires to learn from this American master, Mr. Chet Atkins.
Each Chet Licks DVD includes 2 discs: Part 1 & Part 2. The material is a graded progression that starts in Part 1 with the basic concepts of alternating bass patterns and moves through to advanced concepts such as cross string scales and harmonics in Part 2. There are performance pieces in the program and a wealth of deep material on Chet.
