When playing guitar, lots of attention goes to the left hand and what chords are played, but the right hand is responsible for most of the sound created. Steve Petrunak breaks down a right hand strumming technique that can diversify the sound within the same song.
Steve Petrunak is a founding board member of CLEF and recently retired as the director of music at St. Blase Catholic Church in Sterling Heights, Michigan. He has worked in music ministry for more than 40 years and is the co-author of “Managing Music Ministry: Beyond Notes and Chords.”
