Download or read book Dave Flynn Complete Works for Solo Guitar written by Dave Flynn and published by Mel Bay Publications. This book was released on 2020-10-21 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a collection of contemporary, tonal classical guitar works from Ireland's most prolific guitar composer; Dave Flynn has melded Celtic, minimalist and neo-baroque influences in this ground-breaking addition to the modern concert repertoire. Fans of the minimalism of Steve Reich, John Adams and Philip Glass will enjoy “Three Minimalist Pieces” and the “Six Etudes for Five Fingers”. The influence of Flynn's native Ireland can be heard in some of these etudes, as well as in the Satie-esque “Three Gymn O'Paddies” and “The Mahatma of the Glen” which utilizes an alternate tuning with roots in Celtic fiddling. The imposing “Passacaglia” is a challenging concert work suitable for competitions and recitals, while the “Homage Sonatina” pays tribute to three iconic guitarists: Heitor Villa-Lobos, Andy Summers and Leo Brouwer. With an insightful foreword from the late Charles Postlewate, Flynn's illuminating practice tips and program notes guide the reader through these atmospheric, accessible works. Flynn's own interpretations can be found on his albums 5to9 - Music for Solo Guitar (2020) and Contemporary Traditional Irish Guitar (2009), available online to stream or download. Recommended for intermediate to advanced classical guitarists, these pieces are written in standard notation only.

While still in his early teens he earned his way playing piano in the honky-tonks of villages and towns in the Mississippi Valley. He was intrigued with the folk music of his people and the jig piano style of the self-taught pianists with whom he worked. Take a musical journey through Scott Joplin's prolific career and perform these time-honored ragtime piano pieces as they are transcribed here for solo guitar. Written in standard notation only with fingerings and historical/ performance notes.
