Rather than being written for the classic guitar, however, each piece is arranged for solo pick-style guitaraa.k.a., plectrum or flatpicking guitarain both standard notation and tablature. Like classical guitar arrangements, these settings utilize the full spectrum of the guitaras capabilities with bass lines, chords and melodies happening simultaneously. Although written for intermediate to advanced plectrum guitarists, fingerstyle players will also find these arrangements rewarding. This collection would serve as a convenient resource for pros who should be able to sight read most of this material on the job. Given that these arrangements sound complete and appropriate as plectrum guitar solos, pick-style students will also enjoy and benefit from working on these familiar melodies by Baroque, Classical and Modern masters.

Chord-Lead Soloing for Guitar is a complete method for developing fluid double-stop chord melody. This style of playing can be heard most notably in the playing of Jimi Hendrix (in songs such as 'The Wind Cries Mary', Little Wing', and 'Castles Made of Sand'), as well in the music of the guitarists he influenced, including Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Chord-lead style playing bridges the gap between straight lead and strictly rhythm, because it is simultaneously chordal (implying a specific major or minor chord) and melodic (carrying a distinct singable melody). This book shows the guitarist how to develop this technique and create continuous connections of moving voicings, merging lead and rhythm into one flowing melodic chordal texture. This is accomplished through a comprehensive collection of chord-lead phrases, each of which is presented in at least three different fingerings (important for whole-neck flow). These phrases are then assembled into soloing etudes that demonstrate practical application over different chord progressionsChord-lead playing can be adapted to every style of music, including rock, jazz, blues, alternative, funk, RandB, country, and pop. Mastering chord-lead soloing also greatly increases a guitarist's ability to 'stand alone'; that is, to play by himself unaccompanied by other musicians, mixing and switching between chording and lead improvisation. This book is perhaps the most definitive guide ever written for mastering this highly sought after (yet elusive) style of playing. Audio download available online. Standard notation and tablature.

This is a clear and concise method to help the intermediate-to-advanced guitarist develop the crafts of composing and arranging. With an accessible presentation of theory as it applies directly to the guitar, topics include: the structure and construction of a melody, harmonizing a melody, development of melodic and harmonic ideas, musical form, the roll of rhythm and tempo, the guitar as a compositional tool, and how all these elements are combined into a fully realized piece of music. The importance of open tunings and why they play a major role in fingerstyle guitar is discussed, along with their benefits and practical limitations. Finally, we cover techniques particular to fingerstyle guitar playing and how to approach performing, dealing with nerves and presentation, letting mistakes go and enjoying the experience of playing and performing.

This is aflamenco guitar arrangement of Malague�a, a piano piece written by Cubanpianist/composer Ernesto Lecuona. It was originally adapted for soloSpanish/Flamenco guitar by Carlos Montoya in 1961 and is widely believed tohave been originally written for the guitar. The fact that Lecuona wrote thepiece in the style of Spain is likely what makes the Spanish guitar arrangementfeel like it belongs to the instrument. Another reason for its association withSpanish guitar is the fact that the main melody from the piece was notLecuona?s invention but was taken from the ?Malague�a? flamenco form,originating out of M�laga, Spain, in the 19th century. ?Malague�a,? and themelodic lines associated with it, is one of the traditional styles ofFlamenco/Andalusian music. This rendition is ?in the style of Sabicas,? aSpanish Gypsy guitarist who is considered by many to be one of the finest flamenco sologuitarists of his time. Lecuona?sMalague�a is typically found as a solo piano piece in the key of C# Phrygian,whereas on the guitar, (as is the case with this arrangement) it is normallyarranged in E Phrygian.
