Interactive Video Masterclass Series
Whether you accompany yourself, play in a duo, or a full ensemble setting, the art of accompaniment is a crucial skill for guitarists because it allows them to effectively support and enhance the music of the other musicians they are playing with, rather than overpowering or competing with them.

In this Art of Accompaniment edition of John Oates’ MasterCraft series, you’ll learn best practices for accompaniment and what to focus on when supporting other musicians and serving the song.

”I’ve asked Guthrie Trapp, who I frequently perform and tour with, to join me on this edition and help demonstrate many key principles in a musical context.

We’ll cover active listening, dynamics, harmonic textures, complimentary chord inversions, counter melodies, and more.

This edition will help you create rich and engaging musical experiences for the audience and the musicians you share the stage with.”

John and Guthrie perform a set of carefully selected songs designed to illustrate a comprehensive range of situations that musicians will commonly encounter when accompanying other musicians. Before and after each song performance, they will describe what they will focus on, listen and react to.

You’ll have TrueFire’s advanced learning tools at your fingertips to personalize your workspace and learn at your own pace.

The performances are tabbed, notated, and synced to the video with looping and slow-motion controls. Backing tracks, Guitar Pro files, printable tab and notation are also included.

Guthrie Trapp is a generational talent on the guitar who has developed a sterling reputation internationally as both a performing musician and a world-class educator.

Inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, John Oates’ exceptional talents as a musician, songwriter, and producer have and continue to make seminal contributions to our musical heritage.

Grab your guitar, and let’s accompany John Oates!
