Feedback from the live stream of this masterclasses:
“Great Masterclass! You give so much of yourself and open a window for us to get glimpse. A master musician in every way!”
“I took part in the masterclass yesterday, and it was amazing! I learned more in these 3 hours than in one year playing…”
“Dear Kurt and team, Just wanted to thank you so much for the Masterclass yesterday. I did wonder if you could add much to the first one you did on improvisation but you really nailed it.”
In this class Kurt goes very deep into many fascinating topics related to guitar technique and improvisation. Kurt hand wrote a 25 page large format book for the class and created 19 play-alongs and other supporting materials. The class experience is like an adventure going seamlessly from one revelation to the next, with characteristically high production values and humour that we have come to expect from the masterclass series. From the macro to the micro level, Kurts way of teaching is always clear, generous and meant to be useful and helpful to musicians of all levels.
The format is a 3-hour video presentation by Kurt Rosenwinkel (MP4) and other related materials such as play-alongs (WAV/MP3), a handwritten booklet containing guitar arrangements, voicings and exercises (PDF).
After the purchase you will receive a PDF guide with hyperlinks to download the video and all related materials.
