Download or read book Seeing Music on the Guitar written by Andy Schneider and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-07-05 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the first book of its' kind to put you inside the mind of guitar players everywhere. Successful guitar players develop an ability to "see" the music they play on the fretboard of the instrument. They see the music they play as a simple relationship of shapes and relative positions. As easily as you already can distinguish a triangle from a square or circle, stringed instrumentalists see music on the fretboard of their instrument. Further, just as you could draw those basic shapes of triangle square or circle from memory, guitar players can visually "draw" chord shapes on their fingerboards and move those shapes around easily, creating new music.This is an inherently special gift those who play stringed instruments have been given. No other kind of instrument makes it so easy for the musician to have a visual roadmap of the music, making things like improvisation or transposing a song to another key so easy. Your fingers will follow these maps to get to the music. This book will show you how to see music as simple shapes and use these shapes to more quickly and proficiently play and create music.This book is for two kinds of students:1. The absolute beginner. Welcome.2. Those who have learned something about the guitar, maybe some chords, maybe even have a good bit of playing experience, but lack knowledge of the way music is built. They have a grip on how to play some music, but don't understand why they're playing these things. Why chords use particular notes. Why some chords in a song are major or minor. Without this knowledge of the "whys", it's difficult, if not impossible, for them to develop as a player. For them, the guitar becomes a giant, frustrating exercise in memorization. It shouldn't be.In this book, you'll see that there really is very little music theory to be memorized. You did a lot more memorizing in your first year of math class than you will here. There are literally thousands of chord voicings available to a guitarist, yet they can be boiled down to a few simple ideas that anyone can grasp. You'll see the simple relationship between chords and scales and you'll learn how to play any chord, even one you've never seen before. No knowledge of sheet music is necessary here. While reading music is great and certainly encouraged, this book doesn't use it. The approach here is to understand how music is constructed and 'looks' on the neck of the guitar. While we won't get into any particular musical style or specific techniques, the information here is common to all Western music: Rock, Folk, Country, Pop, Classical, Jazz.

Download or read book Eternal Troubadour written by Justin Martell and published by Jawbone Press. This book was released on 2016-02-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Bing Crosby once put it, Tiny Tim represents 'one of the most phenomenal success stories in show business'. In 1968, after years of playing dive bars and lesbian cabarets on the Greenwich Village scene, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Bob Dylan and Lenny Bruce, the forty-something falsetto-voiced, ukulele-playing Tiny Tim landed a recording contract with Sinatra's Reprise label and an appearance on NBC's Laugh-In. The resulting album, God Bless Tiny Tim, and its single, 'Tip-toe Thru' The Tulips With Me', catapulted him to the highest levels of fame. Soon, Tiny was playing to huge audiences in the USA and Europe, while his marriage to the seventeen-year-old 'Miss' Vicki was broadcast on The Tonight Show in front of an audience of fifty million. Before long, however, his star began to fade. Miss Vicki left him, his earnings evaporated, and the mainstream turned its back on him. He would spend the rest of his life trying to revive his career, with many of those attempts taking a turn toward the absurd. But while he is often characterized as an oddball curio, Tiny Tim was a master interpreter and student of early American popular song, and his story is one of Shakespearean tragedy framed around a bizarre yet loveable public persona. Here, drawing on dozens of new interviews, never-before-seen diaries, and years of original research, author Justin Martell brings that story to life with the first serious biography of one of the most fascinating yet misunderstood figures in popular music.
