Foreword（前言）
　　If you are a seasoned guitar enthusiast, you are bound to be familiar with the name Frederick Noad. His numerous publications, encompassing virtually every aspect of guitar playing, have become best-sellers, known throughout the world. If you have not heard of him, and you are about to venture into this book, you are embarking on a great journey of music and delight in learning to play the guitar.
　　It is no mean feat to write a guitar instruction book. The author has to possess a rare combination of gifts-namely, a thorough and total command of the instrument, a complete grasp of the guitar's history and repertoire, the ability to organize and impart information in logical, easily digestible steps, with the artistry of a master instructor. This paints a perfect portrait of Frederick Noad.
　　The book for which Mr. Noad is probably best known is Solo Guitar Playing. Through this publication and his many instructional television programs, he has introduced literally hundreds of thousands of people to the classical guitar. Many guitar teachers find that their students do not wish to limit themselves to learning just one style of playing. These students are equally fascinated by folk-picking styles, flamenco strums, blues licks, and classical etudes. It is for this broader-minded category of guitar student that Mr. Noad has written this book.
　　So-if you are a complete beginner, or if you have played for a while and are looking to broaden your style, or if you are an experienced teacher needing a versatile approach to meeting your students' demands, this is the book for you.
　　Starting with practical advice about how to choose your first guitar, the author leads you simply and thoroughly through each necessary step toward making your own music. As soon as you have learned how to hold your guitar, you will begin to play. By the time you are ready to read music, you will have achieved some basic expertise on your guitar and from there-well, the sky's the limit!
　　From this book, you will learn how to play melodies, chords, chordal accompaniments for songs, folk picks, 12-bar blues, rockabilly licks, flamenco, and some of the most beautiful pieces in the classical repertoire. Although this is an introductory book, Mr. Noad does much more than scratch the surface of each aspect he covers. He gives you a solid foundation from which you can choose the styles of guitar playing that you most enjoy.
　　In my experience, this is the best beginners' guitar book that I have encountered. As a professional guitar teacher for over 30 years, Frederick Noad's books have been my faithful traveling companions, and I am very pleased and gratified to have added this book to the forefront of my teaching library.
　　-Edward Flower
　　Edward Flower studied guitar with Jose Tomas in Alicante, Spain and has performed around the world with such chamber music groups as the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields and the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center and such theater companies as the Royal Shakespeare Company and the Juilliard Theater. An accomplished composer/arranger, he was head of the Guitar Department at Ithaca College for 19 years. He has also taught at Bennington College, Boston University Tanglewood Institute, Colgate University, University of Connecticut, Simon's Rock College, and Wesleyan University.
　　He is featured on the following recording labels: Argo, EMI, Classic Editions, Musical Heritage Society, and Telarc. His most recent recording, Chords & Thyme, is with the Dorian label, for which the sheet music is published by Mel Bay Publications.
