Sarah Nation - Guitar
|
Sarah Nation began her musical career by playing with church bands as a teenager. She holds a BA in Music from Indiana State University. While in school she had many valuable experiences, including playing for the ISU big band and jazz combos. Additionally, she holds a professional guitar certificate from Berklee Online in Jazz Guitar.
Since relocating to Terre Haute in 2010, Sarah has played for the Crossroads Repertory Theater, various cover bands, small group jazz ensembles, big bands, and Pinball Heroes – for which she wrote the material. She currently plays with The Streamliners. They play a wide range music from the 60s to the present including R+B, Country, Blues, and Rock. This wide range of musical experience gives her a broad understanding of the guitar and its place in popular, rock, folk, jazz, and classical settings. She has been professionally teaching private guitar lessons for fifteen years and strives to instruct each student in the way that works best for them. She has recently published Complete Guitar Theory to better facilitate the instruction of her advancing students. Sarah's philosophy is that learning a few basics on guitar can go a long way towards personal enjoyment or its use as an accompaniment instrument. But for the student who wants to delve deeper, the opportunities are nearly limitless. Guiding students towards musical literacy with a clear understanding of their instrument enables them to continue to learn and grow on their own for the rest of their lives. (Minimum Age 5 years old)
