ACOUSTIC GUITAR

DE GRASSI ALEX, THE ZIPPER. TAB.

The printed music for "TheZipper" is sold as an individual transcription. "The Zipper" is a great example of characteristics that have distinguished the composition and performance styles of Alex de Grassi over the past 20 years. From a compositional perspective, Alex takes an individualistic look at tradition, combining the countrapuntal texture of Baroque music with the charm of a Celtic dance. From a technical standpoint, the right hand plays flawless arpeggios while the left hand rolls through configurations to give his lines a super-realistic lyricism. "The Zipper" can be found on Alex de Grassi/The Water Garden

ENCYCLOPEDIA OF IRISH AND AMERICAN FIDDLE TUNES FOR FINGERSTYLE GUITAR. D. Baker. CD TAB.

Product Description:
This volume is intended as a folio of arrangements from the repertoire of a working musician. As such, there is only a minimum of discussion about the technical aspects of playing. Students who have already dealt with the American style called fingerpicking or fingerstyle guitar, which is quite distinct from other kinds of guitar playing, will be at an advantage. The easiest arrangements here are early intermediate level, while the other end of the scale includes pieces that may challenge even a professional. Tunes within each section are presented generally in order of difficulty. The bulk of the tunes presented are fiddle tunes, with a couple of banjo tunes and several songs as well as tunes originally played on other instruments such as harp, pipes, or accordion. There are even a small number composed for the guitar. For the most part, differences in approach among the tunes here are unrelated to the instrumental sources. All the tunes are presented in notation and tablature.
