Musical Theatre Gigs for Rock Guitarists Pt1: The Prerequisites

Описание: For the last 2+ years I've played 8 musicals. In this four-part series, I share what I learned about what it takes to get and play musical pit gigs as a guitarist.

Here are the major requirements you should meet, if you're going to pursue musical gigs:

Be able to read traditional music score (not tabs, not chord charts)
Have enough theory to be able to analyze chords
Be comfortable playing in multiple genres, particularly rock, jazz and folk
Play melodies and leads (but not flashy solos)
Have an electric rig with clean and overdriven sounds
