CHITARRA - GUITAR

QUEEN, LICK LIBRARY LEARN TO PLAY. 2 DVD

DVD VIDEO METODO DI MUSICA ROCK. 

LEZIONE PER CHITARRA DI Michael Casswell.

TECNICA, STUDIO, MANUALE, DIDATTICO. 

Here's your chance to learn five of Queen's biggest and most spectacular rock anthems, songs that made them one of the greatest stadium rock bands of all time.

The delicate and majestic solos of Brian May have always been a benchmark in outstanding rock guitar writing, with a distinctive tone, unusual harmonies and a finely-tuned ear for melody. From his famous homemade guitar and old-sixpence plectrum to his unmistakable hair and clogs, May has remained one of the quintessentially British guitar eccentrics. In this exclusive double-DVD set, Michael Casswell provides a note-by-note examination of five of Brian's best, including the thundering rock of Hammer To Fall and the echo-soaked Now I'm Here, with every riff explained and demonstrated in close-up detail.

PERFORMANCE NOTES FOR GUITAR
Playing guitar in a big band is challenging but very rewarding. Here are a few specific tips for playing
guitar in a big band:
• Within the typical rhythm section, the guitar and piano must work especially close. Share the
camping duties. Always be sensitive to blend with the rhythm section and the ensemble.
• "Comping" means to accompany or compliment. Always keep it simple, tasteful and supportive.
Lessis more.
• Various responsibilities for the guitarist are: com ping, supporting the ensemble harmony and
rhythms, playing individual lines with wind players, soloing, and supporting various soloists.
• Slash marks indicate to camp using three or four note chords usually in a quarter note rhythm
pattern. Typically, the third and seventh are the most important notes in a seventh chord.
• Become skilled at reading both chord changes, written notes and creating chord voicings.
• Always be sensitive to your volume and sound. Begin by setting the tone controls on the
amplifier to the mid-point and then adjust as needed. For a rock tune, the goal is to approximate
an electric guitar sound, but for a jazz swing tune, strive for a hollow body jazz guitar
sound with dark overtones. Listen to examples of these different types of instruments for reference.
• The guitar part is a guide and suggestion of what to play. Depending on your ability and
experience, you can play the part as written or embellish but with good taste and musicality. Always listen!
• Generally, in a big band chart, when there is a written out part with no chord symbols, the arranger
wishes the part played as written. When there are only chord changes and/or slashes,
then comp in the style of the chart.
• For a sound that blends, consider using medium thickness picks which will give the sound a
bright, acoustic quality and hold the pick loosely between the thumb and index finger.
• For a swing style comp of quarter notes, strum straight quarter notes trying to cut off (mute)
the sound of the chord right after striking the strings. Strum from the elbow; giving a bright,
swinging sound that propels the rhythm section forward.
• The guitarist's quarter note comping style should perfectly mesh so that the guitar and bass merge into one big sound.
• If the chord has extensions you don't recognize, play the third and seventh (sixth) of the chord.
There is a two-measure count-off click at the beginning of each play-along track

Vehicle:
1) A rock style chart, dig in and play more aggressivelythan usual and strive for a brighter sound, but
don't overdo the volume.
2) The written camping rhythms are also played by the piano, so listen, blend and lock in the feel.
3) Measure 65 isa rubato trombone solo. In 66, the drumset playsa fill in-tempo to bring you in for the last two measures.

Sax to the Max:
1) In the introduction, play the written notes with the saxesand brass.Listenand blend.
2) This chart callsfor basiccamping in the jazz swing style. Playquarter notes with a muted sound.
3) If the chord hasextensionsyou don't recognize, focus on the third and seventh of the chord.

Nutcracker Rock:
1) Playmeasures 5-8 with a bell-like sound-play it clear and let it ring.
2) Although this isa rock style chart, avoid a radical rock tone-blend.
3) At measure 37, listen and match the articulation and phrasing with the horn players ...

• Gain facility with all these tools via time-tested exercises

Thaddeus Hogarth is an associate professor of guitar at Berklee College of Music, where he has trained hundreds of guitarists in the art of funk/r&b. He is an active performer and recording artist.

"When I was a young blood, starting out in the Apollo Theater house band, the knowledge the old timers shared with me was invaluable. As I started working through the lessons in this book, it felt like an extension of those glorious soulsters—guiding me like Lewis and Clark, down the trail to Funkland. This will be a priceless tool for the novice, as well as the pro of other disciplines. Bravo."

—Nile Rodgers, Guitarist/Producer/Composer/Arranger (Chic)

"Thaddeus Hogarth has articulated some of the 'secrets of the funk' in an easy to understand, practical manner. It is the only book I've ever seen that approaches funk and r&b with due respect, in its simplicities and complexities. He not only gives great examples but also takes you into the exploratory harmonic possibilities to find your own voice. If you're looking for "That Book" to unlock the inner workings of the groove and what to do on top of it, this is the book to read."

—Billy "Spaceman" Patterson, Guitarist/Composer/Producer/Arranger (James Brown, Sly Stone, Miles Davis, George Clinton)

"A timeless staple of r&b guitar. The format is meticulously detailed, the recorded examples are first rate, and the listening list is a veritable treasure-chest map."

MONTGOMERY WES, Essential Jazz Lines in the Style of. CD TABLATURE

LIBRO DI MUSICA PER CHITARRA CON CD E TABLATURE.

Product Description:
Wes Montgomery took jazz guitar to a new level when he came to the public's attention in the late 1950's. Known for his fluid lines and his big jazz guitar sound, Wes influenced thousands of guitarists in the styles of jazz, blues, and rock. This book will present some of the soloing techniques that Wes used as well has present many melodic ideas (lines) similar to the way he played over the chord progression in many jazz standards. Because the major and minor ii-V-I progression are the most widely used chord progression in jazz standards, the lines in this text will work over these progressions. The accompanying CD contains many play-along tracks (vamps of one chord and vamps around the circle of fourths) that the student should use to practice the material in one key and then master it in all twelve keys. By learning the techniques used by Wes Montgomery, guitarists will add to their own improvising arsenal. As improvising musicians add to their collection of musical ideas, their ability to express themselves completely increases. Have fun studying these ideas and applying them in improvised solos.
