The powerpoint and podcast are meant to educate students on the evolution of modern guitar playing, dating back from the early 1900's, to present day. This lesson is mainly geared towards students interested in learning guitar, or interested in learning about contemporary styles of music. Students would have access to these sources inside and outside of the classroom.
Lesson objective:
At the end of this lesson, students will be able to recognize the history, players, styles, and musical techniques that have evolved from modern guitar playing from the early 1900's to present day.
