For everyone attending the TFOA workshop 2025 with me…
I want to thank each of you for making this weekend so special. Teaching and discussing guitar and music with such a dedicated and open-minded group was a real privilege. I hope you left feeling inspired - because I surely did.
Once again, thank you Laura and TFOA for everything - you made everything work!!!
Below here, you’ll find TABs/notation and videos of the stuff that we talked about during the workshop. Make sure to download the files within three weeks.
Thank you all once again, you’re the best!! Hope to see you in the future!
Much love from Schiphol airport… :) / Emil Ernebro
