This book was released on 2022-04-29 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stephen Foster - Cigar Box Guitar GDG Songbook for Beginners with Tabs and Chords Vol. 1 Stephen C. Foster (July 4, 1826 - January 13, 1864) needs no further introduction. He was the first fully professional U.S. songwriter. Because of his musical innovation, the popularity of his songs, and especially because of the quality of his songs, we most often call him "the father of American music." His hits from a century and a half ago, such as Oh Susanna, Camptown Races, Angelina Baker, Old Black Joe, Beautiful Dreamer, Old Dog Tray, and others, are gentle, incredibly rhythmic, and catchy for those times that they are still popular today. And you will find these eternal, most popular hits in this collection of books, which is intended for the widest possible circle of old-time music lovers. The collection of melodies is adapted for various "folk" instruments, such as guitar, mandolin, ukulele, guitalele, tenor banjo, cigar box guitar, and baritone ukulele. This way, fans of different instruments can easily gather to play and sing together. Unlike in books from my previous collections, I decided to use a slightly larger number of chords this time. Only in this way could I preserve the original harmonies given to us by Stephen Foster a century and a half ago. Book benefits A collection of the 30 most popular songs by Stephen C. Foster, the father of American pop music, which should not be missing from any bookshelf. Suitable for parents and children. The songs are featured with a melody, standard notation and tablature, chord diagrams, and lyrics. Included free, online audio tracks for all songs, with solo and basic chord changes. Intended for anyone who would like to increase the repertoire. Suitable for playing solo melodies, accompaniment of singing with chords, and playing in a duet. Suitable for use with other books for ukulele, guitar, guitalele, baritone ukulele, mandolin, cigar box guitar, and tenor banjo from the same songs collection. Songs from the book Ah!

There are multiple voicings for each chord group providing many chord choices. You will find chords categorized by note names starting from A - Ab/G#. Each note name has the most used chord suffixes, i.e., Major, Major 6, Major 7, etc. For beginners, there is a convenient summary of easier chords and common chord shapes. Chord Progressions Learning your favourite chords is the first step, followed by learning to switch between chords to play songs and chord progressions. Improve your chords by playing through the chord progressions taken directly from popular songs. There is a good selection of blues chord progressions that cover the standard blues changes in all keys. Have a look at the popular strumming and fingerpicking patterns to further your chord playing abilities. There is also a review on basic chord theory explaining how chords are formed, the chord numbering system, chord formulas, and understanding chord progressions.
