Book Synopsis Pat Kirtley Irish Guitar by : John Roberts
Download or read book Pat Kirtley Irish Guitar written by John Roberts and published by Mel Bay Publications. This book was released on 2011-02-24 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World traveling fingerstyle guitarist Pat Kirtley presents 17 solo guitar arrangements of traditional Irish tunes including a few original compositions in the same vein by himself, Pierre Bensusan, and Duck Baker. As all of the tunes in this 1997 recording were arranged in altered tunings (DADGAD, EADEAE or DADEAD), each appears in both standard notation and tablature with insightful performance notes. In general, these transcriptions from Pat Kirtley's 1997 album of the same title are extremely accurate; the Red-Haired Boy, however, played as a duet with Steve Rector on the album - appears as a solo arrangement in this book. Recommended for the intermediate to advanced player, the author provides insightful performance notes for each tune.

Book Synopsis World of Celtic Fingerstyle Guitar by : Stefan Grossman
Download or read book World of Celtic Fingerstyle Guitar written by Stefan Grossman and published by Grossman Guitar Workshop. This book was released on 2012-05-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of traditional music from Ireland and Scotland arranged for solo guitar is the result of a passionate study of the tradition by some of the finest musicians playing in this genre. Compiled by Stefan Grossman, this book includes arrangements by Pierre Bensusan, El McMeen, Martin Simpson, Pat Kirtley, Duck Baker, Tom Long & Steve Baughman. Looking back less than a century you would find this music performed on fiddle, pipes, button accordion, flutes and whistles, in solo and ensemble settings, but never guitar, even in its basic role of providing rhythm. The challenge for those who attempt to translate Celtic traditional music for fingerstyle guitar is to preserve the unique qualities which are the essence of the style. The popularity of alternate tunings in this music tends to come from two different directions. One is in the desire for production of tonalities of droning instruments, ß la the bagpipes, and tunings such as DADGAD and EADEAE make this effect relatively easy. On the other hand, there are guitar tunings which lend themselves easily to the melodic steps and fullness found in the diatonic Celtic harp, such as DGDGBD (open G tuning) and the CGDGAD. DVD is region 0, playable worldwide.

Book Synopsis Fingerpicking Guitar in the Dropped D Tuning by : Stefan Grossman
Download or read book Fingerpicking Guitar in the Dropped D Tuning written by Stefan Grossman and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-27 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I became aware of the Dropped D tuning in 1960. It literally exploded my playing. Just by lowering the sixth string down a tone - from E to D, my guitar sounded so much fuller. The tuning seemed to open up the fingerboard whether playing in the Keys of D, G or A. An alternating bass sounded huge and dynamic. Over the last 60 years I, as well as guitar playing friends, have explored playing in Dropped D. From folk and gospel to blues and early jazz to Celtic melodies and O'Carolan compositions to original instrumental compositions. This collection covers a lot of musical terrain. There's plenty of musical notes, styles, techniques in these pages. Travel slowly and try to absorb the arrangements one by one. The constant throughout is the Dropped D tuning. Includes access to online audio,

Book Synopsis Top 25 Celtic Session Tunes for Ukulele by : M. Ryan Taylor
Download or read book Top 25 Celtic Session Tunes for Ukulele written by M. Ryan Taylor and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-04 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I began listening to Celtic music in the early 90's when a friend introduced me to Fiona Ritchie's NPR radio program, The Thistle and Shamrock. I'd already become aware of some session tunes through the pennywhistle primer my father had given me in the 80's (when he was still a well, active musician and would play duets with me at family Christmas parties), but I had never before heard recordings of the masters of the whistle, fiddle, harp and uilleann pipes. Needless to say, it was a revelation. Shortly thereafter it seemed like the entire world was listening to the lilting jigs and high-stepping dance tunes in the wake of 1995's Riverdance phenomenon. I loved most everything I heard in that period, from the very traditional, but incredibly virtuosic playing of The Chieftains to the dreamy Celtic-inspired pop of Enya, to the amazing blend of the two extremes by artists like Loreena McKennitt. Fast forward to 2010s . . . Ever since I started writing and arranging for the ukulele I've been planning this book; one that combines my love of traditional Celtic music with my love of the reentrant ukulele (gCEA), which sounds fantastic on solo dance tunes played in the campanella-style (where you try to avoid playing two consecutive notes on the same string to give the sonic illusion of playing on a harp). I'd like to acknowledge Alistair Wood for introducing me to this style of playing as well as three other inspiring arrangers of Celtic tunes for uke: Jonathan Lewis, Rob MacKillop and Wilfried Welti (though I've avoided their books while working on this title to avoid any unintentional borrowing). If you love this style, please check out their work as well! How were the 'Top 25' Celtic session tunes chosen out of the thousands of tunes and variations that are available? Quite simply, I went to the top two sites for traditional tunes and chose to arrange the 25 most bookmarked tunes. Hardly scientific, but a good measure of tune popularity nonetheless. I hope you enjoy the results! Slainte mhaith (good health)! M. Ryan Taylor CONTENTS: There are no page numbers in this book. The contents are listed in alphabetical order, as follows. Although there are no 'easy' tunes in this volume, 10 of the 'easier' tunes are marked with an asterisk. Banish Misfortune Banshee* Blarney Pilgrim* Boys of Bluehill Butterfly Conaughtman's Rambles Cooley's Drowsy Maggie Gravel Walks* Harvest Home* Jimmy Ward's* Kesh Kid on the Mountain King of the Fairies Lilting Banshee* Maid Behind the Bar Mason's Apron Morrison's* Mountain Road Musical Priest* Out on the Ocean Rights of Man Silver Spear Tam Lin* Wind that Shakes the Barley* NOTES: * All of the tunes (except 'King of the Fairies') are arranged in the campanella-style. There are some places, however, where a repetition of a note on separate strings was not practical. * Slur marks have been used in the staff notation to indicate places you may wish to use a hammer-on, pull-off or slide. * A number of the arrangements go up to the 14th fret. I realize not all players have more than 12 frets, but I think enough do to warrant the inclusion. If your ukulele does not go above the 12th fret, experiment with taking these sections or phrases down an octave. * Although there are no 'easy' tunes in this volume, 10 of the 'easier' tunes are marked with an asterisk on the contents page."
