"Welcome to the Vision"

 

 

About the Site...

Hi and welcome to Vision Music! My name is Mark Stefani. Our main mission is offering the highest level of professional music lessons for the evolving guitarist or bassist. I've taught music full-time for over 35 years, and have created what many believe is the finest lesson website on the internet. Take the "nickel tour" below and have fun!

''..an all around great site for learning to play!''

- Guitar Player Magazine (July '99)

 

 

Here To Learn?

Explore the "Lesson Central" main page, where you'll discover numerous FREE guitar and bass lessons, featuring an unprecedented level of quality, both in substance and in appearance. Lessons are shown in standard notation & tab, with pro audio clips.

If you're a beginner or in your first year of playing, and aren't quite certain where to start, the "Coach" recommends bookmarking the amazing Vision Music "Eye Test" page. Here you can determine which lessons you need to build a powerful, solid foundation!

 

For intermediate to advanced players, visit the new "Just Jazz Guitar at Vision Music" page for exciting online lessons that match those found in this excellent magazine.

Thanks to All...

I'd like to offer a deep, personal thanks to world-class guitar virtuosos Tuck Andress, Jimmy Bruno, Stevan Pasero, and all the rest, for their inspiring comments and great endorsements! Of course, the site couldn't be successful without your support, too.

VISION MUSIC FANS SPEAK OUT!

With that in mind, I'd also like to thank each and every one of you for making Vision Music what it's become today. Many of you have taken the time to write and offer kind words of encouragement (click here or above) for the ongoing effort to inspire others.

''What an awesome and unselfish website!''

- J.L. Klegseth (Guitarist)

 

 

Dedication...

This website is dedicated to the loving memory of my late parents. Mom gave up her music career at the age of 26, to raise the "Coach" and his four younger brothers.

My father was the greatest jazz trombonist that I ever heard. He taught me to work hard and never take my love of music and sharing the knowledge with others for granted.

Thanks for everything Pop, and keep on swingin'!
