Mark Stefani, a top-notch solo guitar player with a pedigree a mile long, is also one of the most prolific and well-rounded guitar instructors we have the pleasure of working with. Mark's recent TrueFire course, Jazzed Blues, remains at the top of our charts and his monthly lessons always rank in the top ten. Chord Melody Cafe, a 4-CD ROM interactive video course, focuses solely on chord melody for intermediate to advanced and pro players.

The course leverages TrueFire's new interactive video quick-learning system to get players up and running quickly without hours of tedious theory and exercises.

Chord Melody Cafe is a hands-on playing course, which guides the student through 15 chord melody arrangements of familiar pop and jazz tunes.

Chord Melody Cafe includes 80 video lessons, text overviews, standard notation and interactive Power Tab. Chord Melody Cafe is presented in TrueFire’s multi-media video player for Windows and Mac, which features zoom, speed control, looping and other useful instructional functions. 

Here's how Chord Melody Cafe is presented …

All 15 arrangements are broken down into bite-size chunks through a series of interactive video lesson segments.

Video segments demonstrate the part as written and then breaks it down note-by-note, voicing-by-voicing.

The instructor also demonstrates alternate voicings and provides tips on technique and presentation.

Most importantly, you will learn how to develop your "voice" and craft your own chord melody arrangements.

A text description overviews the tune and provides background on chord melody and solo guitar.

Power Tab is included (interactive tablature), so you can see, hear and slow down the tablature and notation.
