Varying riffs through simple variation and rhythmic displacement 3. Harmonic structure drawn from commonly used jazz harmonic patterns.

Chopinesque

Description: A miniature study of the waltz style of Chopin. Both hands get a chance to sing the melody. There is some shading-a practice in balance. Purpose: An introduction to waltz bass and melodic phrasing; legato and staccato touches; balance. The piece does not use standard primary chords throughout. Suggestions for Instruction: I always start with the left hand. The first note of the chord will be held while the rest of the chord comes in on the second beat. The middle section allows the left hand to sing. Point out the length of the slurs. One hand sings legato while the other hand is played staccato. The pedal is not needed if the first chord tone is held throughout the measure-or if all the slurred notes are connected smoothly. Key: A minor

Christian, Charlie - The Guitar Chord Shapes Of

The concepts and fingerings in this book have been developed by analyzing the licks used by Charlie Christian. Chord shapes are moveable; thus one can play the riffs in virtually any key without difficulty by simply moving the shape, and fingerings used to play them, up or down the fingerboard. The author shows how the chord shapes - F, D and A - are formed, then can easily be modified to major, minor, dominant seventh and diminished seventh chord voicings. Analyzing licks frequently used by Charlie Christian, Joe has identified a series of what he calls tetrafragments, i.e., the core element of a lick. The identifiable sound of a particular lick is preserved regardless of how many notes are added on either side of it, e.g., pickup notes or tag endings. Many examples are shown and played on the CD of how this basic concept was used by Charlie Christian to keep his solo lines moving forward. Weidlich also makes observations on the physical manner Charlie Christian used in playing jazz guitar and how that approach contributed to his smooth, mostly down stroke, pick technique.

Clarion Textures

The opening fanfare section emphasizes the brass and is active rhythmically as well as harmonically. Strong, full sounds will result from the richly scored chromatic, parallel triads. For musical contrast, the middle section is quasi-rubato and very lyrical, relying mainly on the woodwinds. The transition back to the original rhythmic fanfare is smoothly written and effectively brings the work to a close. This number is a fine opener for any concert program.
