Music Notation

Par THOMAS REDMOND. Although his scorching fingerpicking was most impressive at first glance, a closer look at 'Just Us' reveals that he is equally adept at what many musicians consider as a more difficult task: playing fewer notes... ones that mean more, and say more with less, as he does on album opener 'A Simple Gift', title cut 'Just Us', and 'One Sad Clown'. 'Just Us' is an album consisting largely of his own compositions inspired by his two main guitars 'Merle' and 'Pearl'. Along the way we are treated to a barn-storming version of 'Alabama Jubilee' (it must be tunes like this that caused Chet Atkins to say of Jones 'He plays like he's double-parked'), 'Collage-a-Reed' and 'Clawin'' (each inspired by mentor Jerry Reed), while 'Let the Sun Shine In' sounds like an instant fingerpicking classic that you could swear you have heard before, but haven't. Including detailed notation on 15 of Buster's songs from 'Just Us', this Book/CD lesson will challenge even the best players. Presented in standard notation and tablature. / Niveau : Intermédiaire à Avancé / Tablatures / Guitare Tablatures Country - Transcribed Solos

Chapter 3 for example  is an exercise in notating Greensleeves which involves adding lyrics simple harmonies and chord symbols. There is a chapter explaining using a MIDI keyboard with Sibelius's flexi-time input method and also one outlining techniques for scanning in music. Later the book investigates writing for larger ensembles and there is also a downloadable movie file for use in conjunction with a film scoring project.Overall this is a valuable book encompassing a wide range of musical styles and offering helpful additional material as you

Par JULLIEN IVAN. Pourquoi donc un traité de notation ?Parce que notre étude sur le chiffrage américain est la seule qui, à ce jour, est aussi complète et constitue un véritable Traité de notation des accords. En première partie d'ouvrage, nous développerons tout au long de ce traité sur le chiffrage américain l'étude des tensions possibles ou impossibles, c'est-à-dire tous les degrés rajoutés ou pas à l'accord parfait de base. Les interdictions de placer de ' mauvaises ' tensions ne sont pas le fruit d'un caprice mais dépendent des lois acoustiques - voir notre tableau des harmoniques - et en cas d'erreur, l'accord sonnera dans le moins mauvais des cas ' pâteux ' et dans le pire, il nous écorchera sévèrement les oreilles. Nous choisirons nos exemples dans les accords Majeurs, mineurs et diminués. Nous listerons dans des tableaux, toutes les tensions possibles ou impossibles. Un autre tableau nous permettra d'établir une correspondance entre les chiffrages américain et classique. L'étude ne serait pas complète si nous ne vous proposions de passer à la pratique. Ainsi, en deuxième partie d'ouvrage, nous vous offrirons de réaliser des exercices. Attention, il y aura quelques pièges à déjouer ! Et pour être parfaitement serein, au terme de la troisième partie de cet ouvrage, nous vous donnerons les solutions avec les corrigés d'exercices./ Livre / Livre
