Fingerstyle fun!

Stuart Ryan’s new tuition book released

Award winning guitarist and long time Guitar Techniques’s acoustic specialist Stuart Ryan releases his brand new book and CD of fingerstyle arrangements, The Heritage, on March 7th.

The follow-up to his criticallyacclaimed first book, The Tradition, this new collection features 10 arrangements taking players on a journey from traditional Irish airs and reels to New Orleans funeral ballads via Gospel blues, American Spirituals and more. Each arrangement is presented in tablature and notation and includes detailed performance notes, fingering suggestions and an audio recording on the accompanying CD. With pieces ranging from easy to challenging The Heritage is the ideal collection for any fingerstylist looking to increase their repertoire while developing the essential techniques for solo playing and performance.

Like The Tradition, this new set of arrangements is destined to inspire fingerstylists across the world. Ryan has a reputation as one of the most potent acoustic players on the scene today with accolades from a host of worldclass players including Martin Taylor (“a world-class guitarist”).
