Guitar Music Theory

As we begin this educative book, the first thing that must be addressed is what music is. Giving a layman's definition, music is the production of pleasant sounds that make sense to the ear. It can be performed with the aid of various instruments such as the keyboard, violin, trumpet, and most important to this book, with the guitar. By way of a technical description, music has to do with an assortment of coordinated sounds that make sense. It deals with the process of creatively combining tones and sounds in order to create a sensible composition. Music has been in existence since time immemorial, existing, and varying in different cultures. In fact, research has proven that it started around 1500BC. Every culture and indeed tribe have various types of music that are peculiar to them. Music has a way of making humans express their emotions. For instance, a song played during the time of war often makes the warriors or soldiers - as the case may be - motivated for battle.
