DVD Reviews of Irish Rhythm Guitar: Accompanying Celtic Tunes
DVD Review: Just a few notes
Summary: 4 Stars
I am not an accomplished guitarist but someone interested in accompanying Celtic session. This is a great DVD. John covers all the types of Celtic songs and gives you a real feel for them. Each lesson is geared toward bringing you forward in the learning process. However there are a few points that buyers should be aware of.
First, John is a lefty so when you look at his display of how to play the cords you are going to have to translate that into right hand play. I as an amateur found this somewhat difficult to do, especially while playing.
Secondly, the chords, as mentioned in another review are difficult for those who don't have a large hand span. I had difficulty with them.
Thirdly, I bought another book at the same time with DADGAD tuning. Obviously, the fingering is different for all the chords. I did find the chords somewhat easier to play, though less full with DADGAD than with drop D.
All in all, I really enjoyed the DVD and the music. John brings a real ease to teaching others in a progressive manner. His style is the one I would most want to copy for accompanying Celtic music.
