Guitar Styles Taught in Marylebone
Our tutors cover a broad range of guitar styles, so whether you have a clear musical direction in mind or are still exploring, we can guide you:
-
Classical and fingerpicking guitar
-
Rock and electric guitar
-
Jazz guitar and chord melody
-
Acoustic and singer-songwriter style
-
Funk and rhythm guitar
Working across multiple styles helps students become more versatile, expressive musicians and often leads to discovering a sound they didn't even know they loved.
Jazz Guitar, A Style Worth Exploring
One style that comes up frequently with our Marylebone students is jazz guitar, and for good reason.
Jazz guitar develops a level of harmonic understanding and improvisational freedom that benefits players of every genre. Students who explore jazz consistently find their overall musicianship takes a significant leap forward.
In jazz-focused lessons, students typically explore:
-
Jazz chord voicings and extensions
-
The CAGED system and fretboard navigation
-
Improvisation over chord changes
-
Swing rhythm and comping techniques
-
Iconic jazz standards as a learning framework
Even if jazz isn't your primary interest, dipping into it regularly makes you a sharper, more musical guitarist across the board.
