Solo guitar refers to the performance of music using a single guitar, where the guitarist plays melodies, harmonies, and rhythms without accompaniment. This style allows for a wide range of expression, showcasing the player's technical skills and creativity. Solo guitar can encompass various genres, including classical, jazz, and folk. In solo guitar performances, musicians often use techniques like fingerpicking, strumming, and tapping to create intricate soundscapes. Notable solo guitarists include Andrés Segovia in classical music and Joe Satriani in rock, both of whom have significantly influenced the art of solo guitar playing.
