Book Synopsis Achieving Guitar Artistry - Linear Guitar Etudes by : William Bay
Download or read book Achieving Guitar Artistry - Linear Guitar Etudes written by William Bay and published by Mel Bay Publications. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the flagship book in Mel Bay's new Achieving Guitar Artistry series. Herein you will find an extensive collection of linear pieces with interesting melodic content. Frequent performance of these etudes will not only enhance technique, but offer the guitarist a wonderful opportunity to improve tone, touch and lyrical phrasing. We suggest playing each etude at a slow tempo at first, the goal being to achieve a clear and beautiful tone on every note. The next objective is to develop a sense of lyrical completeness to each musical phrase. Make the phrases sing! Once you have achieved the desired quality of tone and expression, increase the tempo to work on the technique. Mel Bay's Guitar Journals - Mastering the Fingerboard: The Reading Book (MB20903) would make an ideal supplement to Linear Guitar Etudes as it presents etudes in all keys and positions. The pieces in Linear Guitar Etudes are multi-positional. That is, the player will be required to move from position to position on the fingerboard. The music is presented in standard notation only, with left-hand fingering included on the more complex passages, and circled numbers to indicate the strings where certainnotes and passages are to be played. These etudes sound good on both nylon and steel-string guitars, and will be a valuable addition to the music library of any guitarist, enhancing their abilities regardless of the style of music played.

Book Synopsis 7 Studies for Guitar by : Andrew Hull
Download or read book 7 Studies for Guitar written by Andrew Hull and published by Mel Bay Publications. This book was released on 2020-06-19 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed by David Tanenbaum, Guitar Department Chair at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, as “a fun and varied set that is pleasing to the ear while being a healthy workout”, the 7 Studies for Guitar by virtuoso guitarist Andrew Hull is a set of concert etudes in the tradition of the twelve etudes of Heitor Villa-Lobos. Andrew is a Guitar Foundation of America International Competition finalist, former student of famed guitar composer Dusan Bogdanovic, and Fulbright Scholar to Uruguay. While in Uruguay, he studied the original manuscripts of the Villa-Lobos etudes with the late Abel Carlevaro. The 7 Studies for Guitar were inspired by that experience: seeing Villa-Lobos’ original pages, sitting at the foot of the technical master Carlevaro, and realizing the great need for a new set of concert studies. The studies are the sum total of his experiences learning from these technical and compositional masters and feature challenging and fiery pieces that test the limits of modern technique with arpeggios, tremolos, scales, and specialized left-hand techniques. Includes access to online audio.

Book Synopsis A Study in Flatpicking by : Jeff Troxel
Download or read book A Study in Flatpicking written by Jeff Troxel and published by Mel Bay Publications. This book was released on 2024-06-20 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, journalist, composer, songwriter, teacher, and 2003 Winfield Flatpicking Guitar Champion, Jeff Troxel, delivers a masterclass in arranging fiddle tunes for flatpicking guitar. These 20 themes and variations on favorite bluegrass melodies are designed to improve overall musicianship and augment your own arranging skills. Ideal for the intermediate to advanced flatpicking guitarist, the author reveals techniques for enabling readers to create their own theme and variations settings. Suggested rhythm guitar chords and light left-hand fingerings are also provided. Troxel points out that one of the unexpected benefits of learning and memorizing themes with variations is that the process will ultimately facilitate linear and harmonic improvisation. It would be a painstaking process to learn this skill from a teacher or a harmony textbook, but once memorized, the scale and arpeggio patterns within these tunes and variations will set you on a viable path towards original improvised lines. As a bonus, the author includes a generous appendix containing several of his Flatpicking Guitar Magazine articles that deal with aspects of musicianship that every guitarist should know. While written in standard notation and tab, if you have relied solely on tablature and recordings in the past, this book can provide the key to understanding essential music theory and reading standard notation. If you’re not quite ready to learn to read standard notation, you can still use the tab and the author’s excellent online recordings to learn these delightful arrangements. In any case, it will be fun to get these settings of standard bluegrass tunes “in-hand” and use them in future jam sessions.
Book Synopsis Achieving Guitar Artistry - Contemporary Baroque Etudes by : William Bay
Download or read book Achieving Guitar Artistry - Contemporary Baroque Etudes written by William Bay and published by Mel Bay Publications. This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arts flourished in the Baroque period. Music from that time is still performed worldwide by symphonies, opera companies, choirs, chamber ensembles and soloists on many instruments. The period was characterized by the works of such great artists as J. S. Bach (b. 1685), Handel (b. 1685), Telemann (b. 1681) and many others. These composers defined the rich, ornate and melodic Baroque style of music which we categorize in the classical realm. There was another genre of music flourishing during this period, and that was the "common" or folk music style characterized by such composers as Ireland's legendary harpist, Turlough O'Carolan (b. 1670).
In composing music for this book the author recreated harmonic and melodic elements of this great musical age, while adding some contemporary twists. All of the etudes are original and will serve to enhance guitar technique, phrasing, expression, note- reading ability, and knowledge of the entire guitar fingerboard. Fingering and string markings are included where appropriate.
In addition to facilitating the many technical and aesthetic aspects of performing at an advanced level on the guitar, these etudes may be used successfully in concerts or recitals. This book is an ideal companion for the other books in the Mel Bay "Achieving Guitar Artistry" series, which is designed to condition and guide the developing guitarist to an advanced level of proficiency, regardless of the style of music performed.
