From the Introduction by Stephan Hume: I remember the day of my 12th birthday when we went to pick up my birthday guitar from a relative’s house. It was a small, half-sized child guitar that was stuck in a very large oversize guitar case. It was used, it was dinged up, but one thing was for sure… It was mine. I already loved it.
And I never could’ve envisioned in my wildest dreams that someday I would be able to share the passion for learning to play music with others through owning and operating a successful music school. But I prayed for something great to happen, and here we are!
There are two types of people: Those who play music and those who wish they could. Which are you? Are you ready to finally learn to play music yourself? Let us show you how easy it is to play music. The truth is, you don’t need natural talent to become a musician. Playing your favorite songs just takes time and patience. When you discover the music that lights you up, you can accomplish things you never thought possible.
