The Holiday Gig Book by MARK JOHNSTONE Pdf

This book offers guitarists a graded selection of 71 carols for the holiday season. Most of the arrangements are graded variations in that each tune starts with an easy reading beginner arrangement (excellent for students and the last minute reading gig) and ends with intermediate settings using techniques such as tremolo, jazz voicings, and three voice counterpoint. All of the music in this book is typeset in landscape format so that no page turns are required, and printed in standard notation only with suggested left-hand fingering. the book fits beautifully on any folding music stand and (because of the low landscape format) leaves plenty of room for any standard clip-on light. the Holiday Gig Book is an excellent source of holiday tunes for the working guitarist.

Recording the Classical Guitar by Mark Marrington Pdf

Recording the Classical Guitar charts the evolution of classical guitar recording practice from the early twentieth century to the present day, encompassing the careers of many of the instrument’s most influential practitioners from acoustic era to the advent of the CD. A key focus is on the ways in which guitarists’ recorded repertoire programmes have shaped the identity of the instrument, particularly where national allegiances and musical aesthetics are concerned. The book also considers the ways in which changing approaches to recording practice have conditioned guitarists’ conceptions of the instrument’s ideal representation in recorded form and situates these in relation to the development of classical music recording aesthetics more generally. An important addition to the growing body of literature in the field of phonomusicology, the book will be of interest to guitarists and producers as well as students of record production and historians of classical music recording.

Classical Guitarists by Jim Tosone Pdf

Classical Guitarists fills a void in the special world of the classical guitar. Although this realm is inhabited by world-class musicians, much of what they think and feel has never been captured in print. The interviewees, including Julian Bream, John Williams, Sharon Isbin, Eliot Fisk, David Starobin and David Tanenbaum are a select group at the peak of their prowess who speak openly and thoughtfully about their opportunities, accomplishments, and lessons learned. Each has made important contributions from establishing significant academic programs to broadening the audience for the classical guitar. The author shares his reviews of their most important recordings and New York City concerts during the 1990s, as well as discographies of their recordings. There are also interviews with Harold Shaw, the most prominent artist manager in the history of the classical guitar and several of today's most important composers for the guitar, including Pulitzer Prize winners George Crumb and Aaron Jay Kernis. An introductory chapter provides an historical perspective on classical guitar and a postscript explains how to create a basic repertoire of recordings.
