El Mcmeen

The variety and familiarity the pieces in this collection of Christmas songs and Carols, provides a fertile ground for fingerstyle guitarists.

El McMeen’s arrangements and playing bring a unique sensitivity to this music that encourages and inspires guitar students.

El McMeen demonstrates the use of various techniques and tunings to make the power and beauty of this music accessible and exciting to the fingerstyle player.

Instead of approaching Dropped D tuning via the route of 'Standard' tuning, El went directly from CGDGAD tuning, and has succeeded in finding in Dropped D tuning musical qualities that are very unusual and compelling.

In this DVD, El shares his insights on music and guitar playing, along with his evocative and distinctive guitar style.
