About the Author :
Bryan DeLauney has been a music instructor for nearly two decades. His main musical interest lie in the theory of music and how things are arranged. When taking his own guitar lessons, Bryan couldn't get many of the answers, as a student, that he was looking for. He always wanted to know why he was playing something, rather than knowing how to play it. The mechanics are the easy parts. It's knowing where to use it, and use it correctly that's the secret. Interestingly enough, Bryan's college interests were not in music, but in chemistry. Even after working in interesting positions, i.e., environmental oversight for a chemical weapons demilitarization facility, his heart was still in music theory. The intent of his book, "A Guitarist's Guide to Theory," was initially to be used as a teaching tool, as a student reference book, and as an aid for other aspiring teachers. Bryan wanted to put his teaching ideas and learning tools in the hands of others. After giving copies away for free for three years, he decided to make it available to others, for the edification of the musical arts. Bryan is dedicated to teaching music and helping others learn that there is much more to playing the guitar than a minor pentatonic scale. His future writing plans are to take many of the chapters of this book expand them into individual books, with greater detail. Thanks, for your time... Keep asking questions... and God bless!!
