Download or read book Modern Guitar Techniques written by Pablo J. Gomez and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this work is to provide an understanding of the performance techniques used in the practice of the classical guitar today, especially those relevant to the contemporary repertoire of the instrument. The techniques are broken down in accordance with their origins: some come directly from the classical performance tradition of the instrument in Europe, whereas others have been acquired from other performance traditions, including flamenco, American and Latin-American, and even Asian. The work demonstrates how the evolution of guitar technique has been continuous and is still ongoing. It shows how it is possible to acquire a certain technique, take it out of its original context, and turn it into a new way of expression on the instrument. The correlation of every technique with its original tradition or source allows the reader to connect or even identify with the material at many different levels: musical, social, and historical. At the same time, it shows how these techniques can be used in different and hitherto unimaginable ways. Every technique is shown in its original and pure state, but is also presented in the context of contemporary works by important composers. Even in the case of new and different ways of playing the instrument, therefore, everything has been tested and used. There is no speculation, but rather a catalog of possibilities. The guitar is an instrument with a wealth of possibilities for the articulation of its sound. This is the view privileged by the present work. It is intended for musicians interested in the guitar, for guitarists who want to perform the modern repertoire, and for composers interested in writing for the instrument.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Contemporary Guitar traces the extraordinary rise of the instrument in concert music over the past century. Though recognized worldwide as a popular music icon, the all-to-recent time when the guitar was looked down upon as a second-class citizen in the world of “serious” music is finally past, and it can now be found in the scores of the most important composers. The guitar’s rightful place in chamber music, orchestral music, or as a solo instrument is now without question, whether in the classic acoustic form or the more recent electric version. While the guitar has stood in the vanguard of musical experimentation, its many new techniques and notations remain a mystery for many composers and players. In The Contemporary Guitar, musician and scholar, John Schneider explains each class of technique and illustrates them with examples. Moreover, because the guitar is easily refretted, it has also become a leading instrument in the exploration of the relatively new musical language of microtonality. In this revised and enlarged edition from the original work of three decades ago, Schneider adds a broad-ranging, entirely new chapter on the instruments, notation and repertoire with insights into the interpretation of historical works through the application of accurate contemporary tunings and temperaments. The guitar’s unique timbre—its tone color—is one of the most versatile among modern instruments, both acoustic and electric. Most players who intuitively explore the subtleties of tone color will find outlined in The Contemporary Guitar the specific principles of physics that determine these subtleties which, once mastered, permit guitarists to control more completely the expressive palette of their instrument. Designated the Rational Method of Tone Production by its author, Schneider defines in great detail the timbral characteristics of acoustic and electric instruments from theoretical, physical, and musical viewpoints. Players in search of new repertoire will find an historical survey of the literature, an exhaustive list of new music, and a multitude of techniques for bringing such music to life. The Contemporary Guitar provides audio examples online for those seeking to discover new sounds and includes the notation to perform them.
