About the Book

Major Scales For Contemporary Guitar gets straight to the heart of scale study on the instrument by introducing the five basic major scale fingerings and drilling down on each in a repetitive methodical manner. Many methods introduce hundreds of scales with out showing their inter-relation to the basic major scale fingerings which can add a great amount of confusion, frustration and hinder advancement. Mosby's approach is straight ahead from the beginning. All major scales carry the same fingering patterns as any derivative scale. Since all modes are derived from the major scale and use the same fingerings, it makes sense to conquer these five basic shapes from the major scale perspective before moving on. The result is strong technique, clear mental focus in counting and note placement and confidence. Once the major scale fingerings are conquered, then the modal possibilities bloom forth which will be featured in an upcoming book to take the student through the modes and their applications in improvisation, composition and reharmonization. Learning to master simple aspects of guitar playing becomes a monumental task for most and overwhelming for many. Thanks to the number of method books sending the same message of unconnected dots, missing information and confusion to uninformed teachers, this problem is only exemplified. Mosby has cracked the code for a proven, systematic approach to developing acoustic guitar technique which allows easy access to a methodical approach based on a few simple ideas and a solid foundation in the basics of music. "The layout and presentation of this book is well thought out, methodical and easy to follow. Any student at any level will find it easy access..." Dr. Roland Jordan, Composer / Music Theorist Professor, Washington University
About the Author: Todd Mosby is a two time Global Music Awardee, nominated for three ZMR Awards, and Grammy voting member. Mosby's music is broadcast world wide charting in the top 10 playlists of Acoustic Instrumental/New Age/ Contemporary Instrumental stations. He has toured from New York City to San Fransisco performing his compositions live and giving workshops. Mosby holds an MM in Music Composition from Webster University, BM in Music Business from Fontbonne University, a Berklee College of Music Alum with Specialist Certification in Acoustic Guitar Techniques, Acoustic Blues Guitar, Advanced Guitar Improvisation, Jazz Composition, Arranging and Orchestration. A passionate educator who has spent years in the trenches teaching, exploring and unraveling the mysteries of guitar, Mosby has cracked the code for this instrument which is so easy to pick up yet so difficult to master. His 20 year history as a college professor and private teacher of guitar for all levels and backgrounds places him in the unique position of disseminating complex information into a universal, easy to understand format. Mosby fills in the wholes of confusion and missing musical links created by so many method books on the market today.
