Why are these lessons not available on DVD?


Unfortunately we ran into a problem with one of our cameras while recording these lessons which was not picked up until the edit stage. This has resulted in one of the 3 camera angles sometimes showing a slightly out-of-focus image. The learning is still the same but as the picture quality is sometimes not up to Musicademy's normal high standards we decided not to release this series to DVD. Rather than scrap the footage we've made it available as a download-only product. You can watch the sample video for an idea of the quality of the content.

This is a fantastic product, aimed at helping people improve their worship guitar playing via lessons based on popular songs. What sets it apart are the 'tricks' and suggestions of how to play each song (and by implication others like it) better. For example they show you how to use quite open chords in the key of C (with a capo) to play reflective songs that are in E - a different set of voicings that really suit that type of song. Other books/teachers could give you the same information, but this DVD shows you in the context of worship songs. Basing lessons around songs makes the whole thing interesting and enjoyable, and the number of songs makes this great value for money. Highly recommended!
