Music Education innovators StringTheoryChords.com is uniting musicians around one cause -- communicating the language of music. They are a full-service free membership site dedicating to providing their members with the most useful materials for furthering education in music. Their new handbook for Guitar and Piano chords is packaged to provide the simplest method for translating chords between the two instruments.
"String Theory: Guitar and Piano Chords in Parallel" is the product of over a year long research effort committed by author, Scott Evans. It was his initial objective to provide a simple and casual means to translate chords between the Guitar and Piano. Throughout his pursuit, fostered by the contributions of other musical scholars in the field, he comprised an entire handbook for theoretically understanding Guitar and Piano chords in a simple, easy-to-read format.
"It is a common misconception that Guitar and Piano are completely unrelated instruments. The fact is that Guitar and Piano are both stringed instruments that have many overlapping and convergent characteristics", said Author, Scott Evans. While Guitar is a more "dimensional" instrument, piano is more "linear". By better understanding the structural peculiarities, one can more easily grasp the musical interpretation across both instruments. Chords provide the building blocks by which all musical pieces are crafted and, even more interestingly, how music can be translated between one instrument and another.
The book will provide music students and educators with a helpful guide and resource for Guitar and Piano chords. Students who study the principles in the book will find that the introduction phase to either the Guitar or Piano is sped up considerably by understanding chords from two musical perspectives.
