Guitar for Kids - First Steps in Learning to Play Guitar with Audio & Video

Gareth Evans

Sinopsis

Guitar For Kids is a fun guide on the first steps of learning to play Guitar with over 70 photographic examples, purpose-made diagrams and cartoons. Starting with advice on buying your first guitar, how to hold the guitar and how to tune it, the music then begins with easy-to-play melodies using only open strings (open strings means only the plucking hand is used), before moving to simple pieces in which the fretting hand is also used. The book goes into detail for some basic techniques because you're better off getting it right from the start rather than develop bad habits.
Tablature Based - Guitar for Kids uses mostly guitar tablature making this popular instrument more easily accessible for beginners (as do most adult guitar method books). The rhythmical aspect of Sight-reading is covered within the Chords section which eases-in the later Sight-reading section because the only new thing to learn will be reading different notes from the musical staff.
Audio Tracks - Guitar for Kids comes with 47 downloadable audio tracks with musical pieces in styles such as Rock, Blues, Pop, Flamenco, Jazz and Reggae. Each piece has a full band demo track and accompanying backing track with guitar part removed for you to play over.
What Else? - EZ chords are covered (easy chords with less notes) and are accompanied with diagrams of the full versions for later on, or if you feel like a challenge. There's an introduction to Power chords with Rock pieces to play named after healthy greens "Broccolli Rockilly" and "Rocket Salad". There's a Blues and Rock duet with backing band tracks to play with a friend, and at the end there is a Quiz, no cheating!

Chloé

Katrina Kell

Taking the reader from Victoria's wild shipwreck coast to the artists' studios of revolutionary Paris and the bloody battlefields of Flanders, this sweeping novel reimagines the volatile history of the beautiful and enigmatic young woman immortalised in one of Australia's most iconic paintings. Created in Paris in 1875, Chloé, Jules Lefebvre's depiction of a naked water nymph, was brought to Melbourne's Young & Jackson Hotel in 1909, where it has hung ever since. In this passionate, luminous retelling, Katrina Kell seeks to unlock the riddle behind the girl on the canvas, known to history only as Marie. In doing so, she weaves the compelling story of an incandescent spirit - a woman with the strength to defy the boundaries of class and convention in order to survive, and an enduring power to influence the lives of others across time and distance.

The Art of Rome - Masterpieces...

Rogan Fish

The art of ancient Rome was shaped by a blend of cultural influences, evolving through a combination of native traditions and foreign influences, most notably from the Etruscans and Greeks. Early Roman art was heavily influenced by the Etruscans, who occupied central Italy before the rise of Rome. Etruscan art was characterized by its religious themes, vibrant frescoes, and elaborate tomb paintings, which had a significant impact on the early Roman artistic style. These early Roman artists often adopted Etruscan methods but began incorporating their own innovations, creating a distinctive blend of the two cultures.
Greek art also played a crucial role in the development of Roman art. As Rome expanded and conquered Greece, it absorbed many aspects of Greek culture, including their artistic styles. Greek sculptural ideals of beauty, proportion, and harmony were emulated by Roman artists. However, while Greek art favored idealized forms and perfection, Roman art took a more realistic approach, focusing on depicting individuals as they truly appeared. Roman portraiture, for example, was known for its attention to detail, capturing the wrinkles, facial expressions, and other characteristics that defined a person’s likeness. This move toward realism was a major shift from the idealized forms of Greek art, and it became a hallmark of Roman artistry.
In the early stages of Roman art, the primary medium was sculpture, often used to commemorate important figures or events. The Romans developed a talent for creating lifelike statues and busts, which were displayed in homes and public spaces to honor ancestors and gods. These sculptures, often made from marble or bronze, served as a means of preserving the memory of individuals or celebrating military victories.
