Download or read book Don Andres and Paquita written by Alfredo Escande and published by Amadeus Press. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Amadeus). This heartbreaking tale uncovers a mystery in the life of one of the most important personalities of the twentieth century, guitarist Andres Segovia (1893-1987). He married the widowed Paquita Madriguera (1900-1965), famous child prodigy pianist and prized student of Enrique Granados, in 1935 as his international career was blossoming. They fled their native Spain under death threats when the Spanish Civil War erupted in 1936 and began an odyssey that landed them in the Uruguayan capital. Segovia's support for the fascist Franco resulted in his banishment from the lucrative American concert scene, while the travel dangers of World War II further isolated him from the rest of the world. During this time, Segovia greatly enriched the guitar repertoire through numerous arrangements and collaborations with major composers via correspondence. It was also an era of happy family life with Paquita. The couple collaborated on two of the most important contemporary guitar concertos and traveled throughout Latin America to perform. Then tragedy struck as the guitarist became entangled with a beautiful Brazilian singer in an affair that ruined his marriage and brought tragic consequences to his family life. In writing his autobiography, Segovia could never face this period. With the help of tenacious research and Paquita's two surviving daughters, Alfredo Escande diligently lifts the veil of secrecy and reveals a magical age of music history framed around the couple's decade together.

Download or read book Guitar Scales in Three Octaves in All Keys written by Steven Allen Gordon and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-20 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Violinists, violists, cellists, pianists and many other instrumentalists practice three octave scales in all keys on a daily basis. This establishes and maintains technical competency and a core knowledge of their instruments, as well as a fundamental understanding of the foundation of Western music. As a violist, I begin every practice session with three-octave major and minor scales and arpeggios in all keys. This routine, along with other studies and repertory, has been essential in building the muscle memory that has been vital to my work for over 27 years as a studio musician. Muscle memory is fundamental to sight reading, which is any session player's stock-in-trade. Moreover, muscle memory is an instrumentalist's foundation when learning a new piece, no matter what the style. In short, muscle memory probably is the single most purely physical aspect to learning an instrument. As a guitarist, I have searched endlessly to find a logical and systematic approach for three-octave major and minor scales similar to those that can be found for other instruments. There are many guitar scale books, and many guitar books that contain scales. However, I have not found a three-octave guitar scale system that provides functional and logical fingerings in one simple and succinct book. So, I wrote my own. In time, you will find that you can play through all thirty-six scales at a slow to medium tempo in about twelve to fifteen minutes. I can say without hesitation that this scale method is truly logical and easy to assimilate. I am completely sold on it. I hope you will be too.
