We are not worthy!, Jan 17 2001
By R. MCCOSKER - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Open Tunings Christmas For Guitar (Paperback)
The preeminent teacher of the guitar is finally back with his second guitar instruction guide, the long-awaited An Open Tunings Christmas for Guitar.Here are two important things you should know about this sublimely brilliant text with accompanying CD: (1) It can be easily studied and fully understood on its own terms, without reference to Baughman's previous guitar book, so newcomers to Baughman wonderful instruction books needn't be deterred; and (2) It's such a richly insightful, universally relevant book about musical technique that each and every string instrumentalist -- not just the guitarist -- stands to gain immeasurable new depths of polish, style, and expressiveness through its use and study. (It's a shame that the title is apt to turn off fiddlers, harpists, mandolinists, and others who will benefit as much as guitarists from the teaching of this master.)
Don't waste another minute; life is too short; order this volume right now. As to Steve Baughman: Please don't make us wait so long again for your next book. Your dedicated fans and students can't stand the wait!

Out of the Ordinary, Jun 9 2001
By Shelley K. Childs - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Open Tunings Christmas For Guitar (Paperback)
I love the sound of a guitar for Christmas music, and in my quest for a variety of arrangements, Steve's book stands apart from other collections that I have purchased. There is a mix of familiar and lesser known international tunes, which are not only set in an array of different tunings, but stylistically have different approaches; they don't all sound the same. As a beginner/intermediate player, I appreciate that some of the tunes I can play right away, while others entice me to improve my skills. The CD that accompanies the book will be enjoyed for the beautiful renditions of seasonal music, in addition to its instructional value.
