Trinity’s Acoustic Guitar syllabus brings a fresh and modern approach to guitar learning, reinventing the popular Plectrum Guitar syllabus to better reflect the needs of today’s guitarist. Designed with flexibility in mind, it allows teachers and learners to develop both fingerstyle and plectrum techniques, building well-rounded musicianship from the very beginning. To ensure continuity and familiarity, a selection of the best-loved pieces from the previous syllabus has been retained at every grade.

This book contains all the exam pieces for Initial, Grade 1, and Grade 2, offering a rich and varied repertoire at each level. Students can explore a wide range of styles including folk, acoustic, rock and pop, jazz, blues, and country. This diversity enables candidates to shape their own stylistic pathway as they progress, encouraging both technical development and personal musical expression.

All pieces are presented in both tablature and standard notation, making the book accessible to learners of all reading abilities. Clear, practical, and engaging, this collection is an ideal resource for young and developing guitarists preparing for Trinity examinations.
