It is important as a singer interested in pop or jazz, to develop some level of proficiency on either guitar or keyboard. Rather than recommend a classical course of study for guitar or piano, we would recommend that you seek instruction with a local artist. The focus will be on chord structure, improvisation, and rhythm playing. You can most easily find teachers at store locations such as Music and Arts. All teachers are not created equal, so don’t be afraid to shop around until you find the right one for you.
