We will discuss what it means to be performance ready and how we know our created set makes sense. The audience will love it! So create a great flyer!

Learners may need your assistance to search for guitar music, or make purchases. Purchasing music is not required as there are teacher-created course materials. However, this is all how the learner wants to experience this guided music performance project experience.
