Par SETH F.ORTSAO JOSEL. 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. It was inspired by a new generation of solo guitarists whose extraordinary technical and virtuosic skills have paved the way for a new understanding of instrumental performance practice. 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 chapters describe: - 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. Josel is among the leading figures of his generation in modern guitar performance and has taken part in the premieres of more than 100 works as a soloist and ensemble member. A regular guest at Europe's major contemporary music festivals, he has worked with composers of the stature of Mauricio Kagel, Helmut Lachenmann, Tristan Murail and James Tenney and has played with such leading orchestras and ensembles as the New York Philharmonic, the BBC Symphony Orchestra and the Berlin Staatskapelle. From 1991 to 2000 he was a permanent member of the Ensemble musikFabrik. Today he lives in Berlin. Ming Tsao (b. Berkeley, CA, 1966) is professor of composition at Gothenburg University. His compositions have been performed amongst others by the Arditti Quartet, ensemble recherche and the Stuttgart Opera (premiere of 'Die Geisterinsel” in 2011). He is regularly involved in the Donaueschingen Festival, the Witten Days of New Chamber Music, the Darmstadt Contemporary Music Holiday Courses and Wien Modern. His works are published by C.F. Peters (Frankfurt am Main and Leipzig). He, too, lives in Berlin./ Recueil / Guitare

24 Favourite Pieces Arranged For The Moderately Advanced Guitarist. Par COLES PAUL. 'From Folk to Classical 2” is a mouth-watering collection of 24 arrangements for classical guitar by Paul Coles. The classical pieces include many favourites, including a few you would not expect to hear on the guitar, such as 'Habanera” from 'Carmen” and Saint-Saën's famous 'Swan” but they really work! Traditional folk numbers are not neglected, with 'Michael Row the Boat” and 'Londonderry Air” among the best known. The arrangements are for moderately advanced players (UK grade 5-6) and Paul has offered fingering help for both left and right hands. It follows Book 1 (UE 21673) which was published in 2017 (Grades 3-4). Try it, perhaps as a warm up for Book 2 if you don't already know it and then try Paul's '26 Melodic Studies” (UE 21670) or his 'Momentos Españoles” (UE 21671)./ Recueil / Guitare

Par BERTHOUD PHILIP JOHN. Ideal for the intermediate-level guitarist, these 17 traditional tunes from the UK plus one from France are arranged to be played with your electric guitar plugged-in.

The recording features backup from both electric bass and a second electric guitar, often played with a slide and a little 'dirt? thrown into the mix. Skillful bodhrán and djembe playing on many of the tracks adds to the dynamic nature of the recording.Many of these tunes can be played in lower positions but a few venture as high as the 14th fret. Playing one note at a time within a narrow range, if you don't read particularly well now, working through these tunes will help you improve and gain confidence as a sight reader.Written in standard notation and guitar tablature.

Par BULLOCK ROBIN. Celtic acoustic guitar and cittern wizard Robin Bullock takes the vibrating string to astonishing places with four of his own compositions, artful arrangements of another five traditional Celtic tunes, and tunes by Norman Blake and Dougie MacLean. From high-octane performances on Spider - Maho Snaps - Matelot Jig - and Old Brown Case to the extraordinarily moving and trancelike tune Between Earth and Sky(original title piece of his CD), the slow Irish air For Ireland I'd Not Tell Her Name - and Tiger Baby's Lullaby - Robin displays the fingerpicking and flatpicking styles that, combined with his composing and multi-instrumental skills, have earned his reputation with such renown Celtic and world-music groups as Helicon, Billboard's 'world music' TOP 10 artist John Whelan's new Celtic band, and Riverdance guest artists Footworks Percussive Dance Ensemble. An extraordinary composer, Robin also varies tunings using standard tuning on only two pieces - he fingerpicks seven of the tunes, and uses flatpick technique on Old Brown Case and the three cittern (Irish bazouki) pieces: his original The Iraqi Road to Dublin and Irish traditional tunes Maho Snaps and The Dawn/Miss Monahan. Completing the 11 pieces on this video are: Dougie MacLean's Farewell to Craigie Duh, Turlough O'Carolan's Sir Charles Coote - Captain Higgins - and Rigler's March - Rex's Ramble - another one of his own. Find out why everyone who hears Robin Bullock is entranced by his masterful musical versatility, his humorous approach to life, and the music that runs through his head. / Acoustic Music - Concert/Documentary / Accessoire / Guitare

Par SANTOS YAGO. Classic and flamenco guitarists alike will benefit from these etudes as they bridge the gap between traditional mechanical studies and engaging practice and concert material. Although relatively short in duration, a few of these etudes could be combined in a medley to form an effective suite or set. In addition, fourteen of the twenty etudes are provided with chord accompaniment for harmonic analysis, improvisation, or performance with a teacher or second guitarist.The companion online audio for this book has been masterfully recorded by the author using a flamenco guitar to authentically render the typical picado, double-arpeggio, arpeggio-legato, and horquilla techniques as well as the quintuplet flamenco tremolo. Traditional classical elements like octave, interval and arpeggio studies are also thoroughly explored, with one piece in dropped-D tuning?all with a flamenco flavor.In addition to accomplishing its mission of offering a fresh regimen of appealing practice etudes, the truly unique feature of this book is that everything from basic technique to exotic harmony and modal scales has been aflamencado or ?flamenco-ized?. Towards that end, a comprehensive glossary of mostly flamenco terminology is provided along with standard notation and tablature for each piece. As a bonus for those new to the flamenco genre, or for the serious aficionado or audiophile, a generous ?Recommended Listening? list is included. Practice-related quotations from prominent guitarists in various styles complete this exceptional collection.Includes access to online audio. / Date parution : 2022-06-08/ Etude / Guitare

for Jazz Improvisation. Par ORO XABIER. With content ranging from theory and history to practical exercises, examples, études, and play-along tracks, this book offers the most comprehensive guide ever written for this esoteric and traditionally obscure scale. Simply put, it reveals the last big secret of jazz fusion?s avant-garde.According to which music theorist believes he first discovered it, this scale has been known variously as Messiaen?s mode 3, Slonimsky?s Tcherepnin Scale (honoring his colleague), and Tcherepnin?s own name for it? the 9-note augmented or nonatonic scale.The nine notes of the double-symmetrical augmented scale have fascinated and crucially influenced legendary musicians like John Coltrane, Allan Holdsworth, Mark Turner, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Nelson Veras, Tim Miller, Gary Thomas, and Jerry Bergonzi, among many others.Coltrane?s historic composition, ?Giant Steps,? can be directly attributed to his familiarity with the nonatonic scale. With this book by Berklee College of Music honors graduate, Xabier Oró, you?ll know the secret too.Includes access to online audio. / Date parution : 2022-10-12/ Etude / Guitare

A dozen of the most beautiful traditional melodies from the British Isles and North America are arranged here as concert pieces, with rich harmonies and variations. Carefully voiced and fingered for fluidity and effectiveness, the collection offers a wide range of style and expression. 'Barbara Allen” and 'The Three Ravens” are strongly influenced by the Elizabethan lute tradition, while 'John Riley” and 'Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies” have a more contemporary feel. 'Black Is the Color of My True Love's Hair” and 'Lament for Owen Roe O'Neill” are studies in somber intensity, the modal 'She Moved Through the Fair” sounds the ancient connectionbetween Arabic and Celtic music, and 'Banks of the Ohio” provides an interlude of gentle bluegrass swing, with a hint of gospel. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Classique / Recueil / Guitare Classique
