This series is for anyone who previously took a beginner's guitar series at WISPER or acquired the same skills elsewhere.

Here the secrets of the guitar are (further) revealed. We focus on ensemble playing, variations, rhythms, and on the beginning principles of improvisation. This course is ideal for any guitarist who wants to get more out of his/her/their instrument and wants to keep playing regularly.

At the end of the course, you will get the chance to perform on stage with the group for a small showcase at the WISPER Presentation Days (22-23-24 May 2025).

Practical

Bring your own guitar. Both a classical guitar (wide neck) and a folk guitar (narrow neck) are an option. A tuning device may be useful.

Level of experience

Level 2: You have previously taken a beginners' course and/or you have mastered basic guitar techniques (i.e. you can play the basic chords A, Am, G, C, D, Dm, E, Em and switch smoothly between them). You are open to different styles and curious to try things out for yourself.
