You'll discover the different types of memory, and how this applies to the guitar.  You'll be better able to organize new pieces of music in your mind so that you can recall them later.  You'll learn some of the science behind memory, and how to increase your learning rate. And you'll also get tactics and methods to speed up your memorization. These methods work for anyone, at any age, from child to elder.  You can use them immediately as you learn them.  And as you gain experience with them, you'll get better and better at memorizing music. Memorizing music is a realistic goal.  It helps us become more intimate with the music we play. And with the knowledge you'll gain in this course, you'll be able to enjoy more music and learn more pieces. Master the art of memory, and unlock new areas of your guitar-playing.

Course Level: BEGINNER

This course is at the BEGINNER level. This means that the notes will all be in the open position (so no moving up and down the neck). The rhythms are simple (mostly quarter and 8th notes) and well-explained. And any chords used are common ones. TABs are included for an alternative to music notation. For more advanced players, pieces in this level can be used as a study to improve phrasing and memorization techniques.

Hi, I’m Allen Mathews. 


I started as a folk guitarist, then fell in love with classical guitar in my 20’s. Despite a lot of practice and schooling, I still couldn’t get my music to flow well. I struggled with excess tension. My music sounded forced. And my hands and body were often sore. I got frustrated, and couldn’t see the way forward. Then, over the next decade, I studied with two other stellar teachers – one focused on the technical movements, and one on the musical (he was a concert pianist). In time, I came to discover a new set of formulas and movements. These brought new life and vitality to my practice. Now I help guitarists find more comfort and flow in their music, so they play more beautifully.
