Jazz Fingerstyle Playing & Arranging

By Rich Severson

Ready to take a life-changing dive into jazz fingerstyle guitar? You’ve found the ULTIMATE Guide! Rich starts with the fundamentals and allows you to progress from a solid foundation of both technique and theory. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to create beautiful fingerstyle versions of any song you want! 

Rich eases you into the process by showing you the basics of chord melody and how to harmonize a tune without the bass line, which he introduces later in the course. He also breaks down how to create ear-catching turnarounds, intros, and endings and how to get the most out of a shorter tune. 

You’ll also learn iconic standards along the way like “The Way You Look Tonight” & “Autumn Leaves,” plus “Here, There, & Everywhere" and “Eleanor Rigby” by the Beatles.

Everything Rich shows you is done slowly, piece by piece, measure by measure, lesson by lesson to fully equip you with the tools you need to build your own fingerstyle arrangements. The course includes 20 lessons totalling more than 13 hours of instruction. You’ll also get PDF sheet music with most lessons.
