Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The motivation for the YAMAGUCHI improvisation method was to develop my The Complete Thesaurus of Musical Scales and delve into my findings about music education. I do not have any aspiration to write the best-selling how to improvise textbook, but I did have the perspiration required to complete the best content improvisation method book available to any instrumentalist. My main priorities are to boost teaching quality as well as general academic standards in music pedagogy. The YAMAGUCHI improvisation method is also intended to answer musicians demands for my lessons (This textbook price is more reasonable than one-time private lesson fee). With my original method revealed in this book, you will be able to activate, in your music, The Complete Thesaurus of Musical Scales, Symmetrical Scales for Jazz Improvisation, Pentatonicism in Jazz: Creative Aspects and Practice, and Lexicon of Geometric Patterns for Jazz Improvisation. The motto of the YAMAGUCHI Improvisation Method is, "Search not for the tracks of the people of old, Search for that which they aspired to." Keep stimulating your interests by researching the past, and searching within yourself. I hope that the YAMAGUCHI Improvisation Method will guide you to become a complete artist. GOOD LUCK!

Download or read book Contemporary Guitar Harmony For Advanced Guitarists Only written by Masaya Yamaguchi and published by Masaya Music. This book was released on 2013-05-22 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced Level. The motivation for this book was to develop my The Complete Thesaurus of Musical Scales and delve into my findings about music education. This book is also intended to answer guitar players demands for my harmony lessons (this textbook price is more reasonable than a one-time private lesson fee). This book offers guitarists an effective and novel approach to contemporary guitar harmony. I have presented all possible (forty-three) four-note groupings (i.e. subsets), which may be used for tonal or meta-tonal harmonic progressions currently acceptable on the contemporary music scene. The principles in this book are not of passing theoretical interest, but an effective guide to musical life and how guitar harmony can be expanded to the fullest extent. Knowing possibilities in four-note groups and voicings systems will begin to unlock possibilities for music in the 21st century. Further possibilities live in each one of our guitars, waiting to be discovered. I would like to dedicate this book to all guitarists from the four corners of the earth, who wish to expand their expressive palette in Contemporary Guitar Harmony.
Download or read book All Fourths A Method For EADGCF Tuning On Guitar written by Masaya Yamaguchi and published by Masaya Music. This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Guitar Method utilizing all fourths tuning (E, A, D, G, C, F - low to high). If I was starting to learn to play the guitar today, and somebody gave me a guitar today, I'd tune it in straight fourths without a doubt. Just like the six-string bass, 'cause to find that B string is a pain, and it's unnecessary, 'cause you play ... you know ... there's only a few of us that go around bashing out power chords anymore, so you don't need that anyway, so if I was to learn again, it's just that it's been so many years trying to beat the B string that I can't go and un-beat it. --Allan Holdsworth

Download or read book Melody Harmony Tonality written by E. Eugene Helm and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where did the major scale come from? Why does most traditional non-Western music not share Western principles of harmony? What does the inner structure of a canon have to do with religious belief? Why, in historical terms, is J.S. Bach’s music regarded as a perfect combination of melody and harmony? Why do clocks in church towers strike dominant-tonic-dominant-tonic? What do cathedrals have to do with monochords? How can the harmonic series be demonstrated with a rope tied to a doorknob, and how can it be heard by standing next to an electric fan? Why are the free ocean waves in Debussy’s La Mer, the turbulent river waves in Smetana’s Moldau, and the fountain ripples in Ravel’s Jeux d’Eau pushed at times into four-bar phrases? Why is the metric system inherently unsuitable for organizing music and poetry? In what way does Plato’s Timaeus resemble the prelude to Wagner’s Das Rheingold? Just how does Beethoven’s work perfectly illustrate fully functional tonality, and why were long-range works based on this type of tonality impossible before the introduction of equal temperament? In this new century, what promising materials are available to composers in the wake of harmonic experimentation and, some would argue, exhaustion? The answers to these seemingly complicated questions are not the sole province of music professors or orchestra conductors. In fact, as E. Eugene Helm demonstrates, they can just as easily be explained to amateurs, and their answers are important if we are to understand how Western music works. The full range of Western music is explored through 21 concise chapters on such topics as melody, harmony, counterpoint, texture, melody types, improvisation, music notation, free imitation, canon and fugue, vibration and its relation to harmony, tonality, and the place of music in architecture and astronomy. Intended for amateurs and professionals, concert-goers and conductors, Helm offers in down-to-earth language an explanation of the foundations of our Western music heritage, deepening our understanding and the listening experience of it for all.

Download or read book The Story of Music written by Howard Goodall and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did prehistoric people start making music? What does every postwar pop song have in common? A “masterful” tour of music through the ages (Booklist, starred review). Music is an intrinsic part of everyday life, and yet the history of its development from single notes to multi-layered orchestration can seem bewilderingly specialized and complex. In his dynamic tour through 40,000 years of music, from prehistoric instruments to modern-day pop, Howard Goodall does away with stuffy biographies, unhelpful labels, and tired terminology. Instead, he leads us through the story of music as it happened, idea by idea, so that each musical innovation—harmony, notation, sung theater, the orchestra, dance music, recording, broadcasting—strikes us with its original force. He focuses on what changed when and why, picking out the discoveries that revolutionized man-made sound and bringing to life musical visionaries from the little-known Pérotin to the colossus of Wagner. Along the way, he also gives refreshingly clear descriptions of what music is and how it works: what scales are all about, why some chords sound discordant, and what all post-war pop songs have in common. The story of music is the story of our urge to invent, connect, rebel—and entertain. Howard Goodall's beautifully clear and compelling account is both a hymn to human endeavor and a groundbreaking map of our musical journey.

Download or read book Compendium for Literates written by Karl Gerstner and published by MIT Press (MA). This book was released on 1974 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karl Gerstner is one of Switzerland's—and therefore the world's—best and best-known graphic and typographic designers. His high ambition in this book, first published in German in 1972, is to provide a complete and systematic taxonomy of writing, a programmed investigation into the underlying structure of script and type; Gerstner writes that his book is meant to "encompass the aspects and possibilities of the alphabet in their totality." It is this systematic and programmatic approach that sets the book apart. Most studies of typography and its larger graphic setting and context are concerned with the history of the development of writing and printing, or are collections of typographic models or typical examples, or are textbooks on layout and design. This one is organized into five sections that take up, in turn, Script and Speech—the relation between writing and language, different alphabets, reading directions (the eye follows directions and moves in a direction), style; Manual Graphics or craft—materials, tools, methods, procedures, reproductive techniques; Images—letter pictures, word pictures, sentence pictures, handwriting, size, proportion, type weight, form, harmony, texture, brightness, color; Function—as effected through dimensioning, spacing, grouping, layout, integration; and Expression—as achieved through coordination, articulation, emphasis, diversion, and the spirit of play. As a physical object, the book is more than a passive repository of examples of typographic display. It makes a dynamic and integrated typographic statement of its own and as a whole as it progresses and develops in accordance with its internal program. The book is nearly square and opens vertically rather than horizontally. Type is printed on only one side of the sheets, which are folded back on themselves along the outer edge to form double leaves, so that there is no distracting show-through "noise." There are words printed in blind embossing and stencil cutouts. And color is used with an elegant restraint, appearing only at the book's mid-section climax—its very sparseness amid the prevailing sharp black and white contributes a luxurious effect.
