Introduction

This guitar lesson teaches you all of the notes and positions for one of Chopins' most recognisable Preludes. The melody is simple yet exquisitely beautiful and the entire piece almost seem to be over before it is done.

Tips

Because the Prelude Op. 28, No. 7 is such a short piece I have taken extra time to explain some performance ideas to help make the piece more attractive to the listener.

• Try varying the position of the picking hand from ponticello to sul tasto
• Use the picking thumb to create a variety of tonal colours.
