I love to play guitar, my first guitar chord lessons were something totally unforgettable. It was realizing my dreams to play guitar chords professionally. My first guitar chord lessons actually took place a long time after I already knew how to play the guitar. My grandfather gave me a rare guitar before he died, he was an expert in chord melody and jazz guitar. I promised my grandfather I would learn how to play guitar well and if I could to be a success. His guitar was an old gibson jazz guitar with flat wound strings. Good guitar chord lessons are crucial to open up your lead lines. If you decide to be a professional guitarist, being a good chord orchestrator gives you a big advantage over studying harmony. His guitar had a long story in our family, always being passed on from one music generation to the next.
We believe that talent to play guitar is born with every second generation of our family. Considering the example of my uncle I really can confirm he had every good opportunity to learn to play guitar well, but for some reason, he had the delicacy of an elephant, the feel of an amateur and no inspiration at all for music. He was also tone deaf. His wife knew how how to sing a little. Better not to ask my uncle to play or sing your favourite songs. On the positive side, he was very, very supportive when it came to my guitar chord lessons and sponsored me. He paid for all my individual and private guitar chord lessons working in two shifts to pay my private teacher. I really do not know how I can help him back. But his memory lives in the beautiful chords I play almost every day.
The visual images of chords are like crystals according to John Mizarolli. He has an ability to visualise music and is trying to teach this method of synaesthesia to other musicians. Different guitar chords all have different tonalities and depending on the feel of a guitarist, they project different images into your mind. For instance a beautifully arpeggiated chord sequence played delicately is like the Aurora Borealis.
Chords come in 3 groups Major, Minor and Dominant unless you understand John Mizarolli's system of Chromasonics, which is a crossover of Light, Sound and Emotion expressed as Chord Symbols. Even Chords take on an innovative meaning at Music of the Spheres!
