Gilbert Isbin – Innovative Counterpoint and Fingerstyle Guitar
As a contributor to Modern Guitar Harmony, Gilbert offers a powerful collection of resources for guitarists ready to move beyond basic harmony and explore the guitar as a fully polyphonic instrument. His eBooks cover everything from two-part species counterpoint to original solo fingerstyle compositions, while his video course provides a hands-on, structured path to learning the art of contrapuntal guitar playing.
What sets Gilbert’s materials apart is their accessibility—he breaks down complex ideas into practical exercises that fit naturally under the fingers. By working through his course or eBooks, you’ll learn how to create independent bass and melody lines, apply voice leading in real time, and compose or improvise contrapuntal guitar pieces with confidence.
Whether you’re a classical guitarist seeking a modern edge, or a jazz/improvising player looking to deepen your harmonic fluency, Gilbert’s teachings will elevate your playing. When you finish, you’ll not only understand counterpoint—you’ll be playing it fluently on the guitar, with the tools to write, arrange, and improvise in a more sophisticated and personal way.
