Fingerscapes is a cerebral course of study for guitarists across all styles. For the left brain; a palette of tools and techniques for rousing creativity. For the right brain; an “imaginarium” to stimulate invention. Fingerscapes is also chock-full of paradoxes. You’ll learn fingerstyle moves, but this is not necessarily a fingerstyle course – flatpickers are more than welcome. You’ll work with open tunings, but this is not an open tuning course. You’ll learn how to compose original tunes, but no harmony and theory here. The entire curriculum is presented on acoustic guitar, but feel free to plug-in the electric, pump up the volume and wail away.

"Richard
Gilewitz, Live at Charlotte's Web",
(MB21640DVD) A 66-minute DVD, filmed and recorded live at the Mendelssohn
Club in Rockford, Illinois. This long awaited Charlotte's Web performance
concert captures the essence of Richard Gilewitz skipping along the
magical journey of the various musical genres of acoustic guitar. For
those who have only heard Richard's playing on his CD's or the radio,

men in acoustic music today, Richard Gilewitz fascinates his audiences
with his ability to make one guitar sound like an entire orchestra,
creating his own signature sound that is now available on DVD. It is
his live shows that bring out the best in this man who follows a distinct
cadence that creates a glow that continually grows a little brighter
with each tune.
