This book co-written by guitarist Seth F. Josel and composer Ming Tsao provides a comprehensive survey of contemporary performance techniques on the classical Guitar.

Detailed explanations are given for the instrument???s technical potential within the historical context of traditional Guitar technique. Composers will be interested in the in-depth analyses of contemporary Guitar literature featuring many examples of chamber and ensemble music.Four main chaptersdescribe:Techniques of the right and left hands.Special harmonies and percussive techniques.The main instruments of the Guitar family and their potential.Possible ways of notating contemporary Guitar literature.The examples discussed in the book are complemented by an enclosed CD and detailed charts on multiphonics bitones and percussion techniques.Seth F.

A young man once climbed onto the stage at a Frank Zappa concert to ask how Zappa used his Wah-Wah pedal. The young man was later identified as world-famous guitarist Jimi Hendrix who, along with Eric Clapton, Larry Carlton and Jimmy Page, was soon using the Wah-Wah effect intensively in his own work. Still used by current Guitar heroes such as Slash, Steve Vai and Kirk Hammett, the pedal produces one of the effects most desired by electric guitarists.With companies like Dunlop, Morley and Budda bringing out new pedals every year, it is astonishing that a comprehensive guide to playing the Electric Guitar with Wah-Wah has not yet been produced. This is where Neue Schule Für E-Gitarre Wah Wah comes in. Even without the Wah-Wah sections, this book is a sophisticated guide to playing the Electric Guitar.Written by Uwe Naboreits, who studied at GIT in Los Angeles before founding his own music school, Neue Schule Für E-Gitarre Wah Wah covers all of the basics of using a Wah-Wah and includes a variety of grooves and patterns to learn. A form of notation for the Wah-Wah has also been developed especially for this book, clearly showing the dynamics of the sounds produced by the pedal. / Guitare

Nuova edizione basata sul manoscritto autografo-This edition has to be considered an homage to Manuel María Ponce for the 70th anniversary of his death. The purpose is to correct through the comparison with the autographs the many alterations of the text that are in the first (and unique) Peer edition of 1953. Since this is an educational collection a great importance is given to fingerings. However it is meant in a colourful way often non predictable with various passages or single notes in high positions with an expressive purpose aiming at increasing the value of these Preludes written in a simple language clear but full of slight nuances. Obviously these fingerings are only suggestions and they can be adapted to the many technical and educational needs. In this edition we have preferred to use the original title 6 Preludios Fáciles and not the one used in the 1953 edition 6 Preludios Cortos.This edition has to be considered an homage to Manuel María Ponce for the 70th anniversary of his death.
