The steel string guitar is one of the most popular and versatile instruments available. In this workshop Peppino D’Agostino will explain with musical examples and original exercises: multiple musical styles, various rhythms, string bending, percussive and slide techniques, complex open tunings, acoustic sound effects, bent harmonics, and more. A native of Italy, D’Agostino has made his considerable international mark as a musical artist. In 2017 Guitar Player listed him as one of the 50 transcendent superheroes of the acoustic guitar. The CD “Every Step of The Way” was awarded by Acoustic Guitar’s People’s Choice Awards with a Bronze medal for Best Acoustic Album of All Time. His signature Seagull acoustic guitar has been voted among the ten best signature guitars by Guitar Player magazine. The workshop is open to guitarist of all levels, however it is preferable the the students already have a fairly good working knowledge of the guitar, tuning, chord progression and finger-picking. Students should bring a guitar and may bring a recording device. Peppino will have handouts. This is a rare chance to take a lesson with a world-class guitarist. Peppino is warm and encouraging and that makes for a great atmosphere. $20. To register, visit www.cultural-center.org or call 508-394-7100.
