Ep33 – Unveiling a Christmas Surprise and the Musical Magic of ‘No Chord Fingerstyle’

This week’s episode is all about the musical magic of the ‘No Chord Fingerstyle’ method and Christmas songs. Today, we are looking at the main reasons why you should learn a couple of Christmas songs and how you can do this.
 
Apart from the wonderful joy and cheer of being able to play a Christmas carol, it’s also a great way of measuring your progress each year when Christmas rolls around. It can be hard sometimes to see your progress day-to-day, but dusting off the old Christmas songs is a great way of seeing how far you’ve come.
 
In today’s episode, I talk about what Christmas songs to learn and how to learn them, the benefits of measuring your progress, where to start if you’re a beginner, and how to “embellish” your Christmas tunes if you can already play them. I also talk about the histories of some famous Christmas songs, the new course I’m releasing called Christmas Crackers, and I’ll play a little medley of the songs in the course for you. To round off the episode, I reveal “The Gatekeeper’s” favourite Christmas song, so take a listen to find out which one it is.
 
This episode will help you realise the benefits of tracking your progress, how Christmas carols can help you do this, and where to start if you want to learn some holiday tunes.
