Quest'opera ha lo scopo di farvi scoprire studiare e soprattutto suonare gli arpeggi sul basso. Gli arpeggi costituiscono senza dubbio 'l?attrezzo' principale del bassista. Imparare a suonare il basso senza passare dalla casella 'arpeggi' sembra tanto incongruente quanto voler cantare senza nemmeno saper parlare. Quindi visto che si tratta di un passaggio obbligato il presente metodo vi propone di farveli scoprire? Il ruolo del bassista essendo prima di tutto quello di accompagnare la maggior parte di questo metodo sarà dedicata allo sviluppo di linee di basso (con gli arpeggi maggiori minori di settima maggiore di minore settima disettima di dominante di semidiminuita) in modo da rendervi rapidamente capaci di accompagnare qualsiasi giro di accordi. Approfondiremo poi lo studio utilizzando gli arpeggi per l?improvvisazione e la creazione di melodie ed assoli. Sul disco dati allegato al metodo troverete diversi file audio e video. I video (mp4) presentano tramite l?immagine le numerose linee di basso ed improvvisazioni così come devono essere suonate a velocità normale poi ridotta. Le registrazioni audio (mp3) invece propongono le basi musicali corrispondenti a due velocità diverse. Potrete in questo modo non solo suonare le linee e gli assoli proposti ma anche e soprattutto sviluppare liberamente le vostre proprie creazioni con l?aiuto degli arpeggi suggeriti.
