Rick Beato is a YouTube and Instagram music personality. He interviews lots of old musicians and edits them for IG. He also has this guitar instruction book, called the Beato Book Interactive. It has, as expected, an audio player for examples, video lessons, PDFs. What caught my attention about it is its length: 510 topics!
Here's a part of the table of contents:
- 47 - Basic Progressions (2)
- 48 - Pre-dominant - Dominant - Tonic Lesson
- 49 - Cadences
- 50 - Authentic & Plagal Cadences
- 51 - More About Roman Numeral Analysis
- 52 - More About Roman Numeral Analysis (2)
- 53 - Neapolitan 6th Chord Progression
- 54 - Sus4 Resolutions
- 55 - Cycle of Fifths and Backcycling
- 56 - Roman Numeral Analysis and Chord Scale Choice
- 57 - Basic Rules for Chord Substitutions
- 58 - Basic Rules (2)
The vast number of topics is astouunding. It makes me think of a "teaching book," created after nearly 30 years of teaching (or already 30 years?).
Do I have 500 topics? It would be interesting to find out!
Also thinking of the process of building a guitar book of my own... a binder... a page per "idea".
