Beauty of the classical guitar

The Origins of the Classical Guitar

An enjoyable instrument, play alone or with others

A guitar can be played with melody alone, chords alone or both melody and chords. One of the distinct features of the guitar is that a melody and accompaniment can be played at the same time. Not only playing solo but also playing with other guitarists is fun. Yet the other attractiveness of the guitar is that accompaniment with a singer or the other solo instruments.

Its diverse timbre is one of its highlights

Nylon strings can produce tones from subtle different touches. A guitarist make subtle changes in sound and a delicate balance in tonal strength. Utilize string tension to create a range of sharp and soft sound that may resemble to a harp, cello or flute, or even male or female vocal.
