Guitar - Intermediate-Advanced - Digital Download SKU: M0.30510EB Composed by Michael J. Anthony. Scales, Arpeggios, Technique, Style. Jazz and Contemporary. E-book. Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music #30510EB. Published by Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music (M0.30510EB). ISBN 9781619115484. 8.75x11.75 inches.In this comprehensive book jazz guitarist Michael Anthony addresses the need to build flexibility and technical proficiency in a way consistent with the melodic motifs of contemporary music. Though the warm-ups are numbered, there is no order that must be followed. The guitarist may approach them according to his or her interest and inspiration. They include: arpeggios, scale patterns, melodic minor forms, chord-melody groups, stretching and contrary motion, double-stops, octave displacement, walking bass with comping, two line phrases, 'out of the box' geometric shapes, overlapping rhythms, long arpeggios and diminished scale patterns. The finish line exemplifies arpeggios outlining I-VI-II-V7 progressions in major and minor. In the words of Michael Anthony, I find that isolation of the right and left hand is useful, but ultimately it is the timing and coordination of the two that is necessary. The benefits of these warm-ups are threefold: 1. Technical improvement. 2. Fingerboard knowledge. 3. Ear training. Written in notation and tablature.
