Preface

These 20+ Baroque pieces are selected from the repertoires of various string instruments like Lute, Baroque Guitar, Viola da Gamba, etc. Some of the pieces are much better known than others, but they all are of a high musical standard very rewarding for the beginner guitarist. I have tried to keep the level of technical difficulty within the first three grades (1-3) of the classification observed in the annual syllabuses of British musical academies such as the Royal Schools of Music, Trinity College, Guildhall College, etc, of prescribed examination pieces for these grades.

The Metronome markings are only editorial suggestions provided as general guidance but should not be taken too literally. This volume is divided into two sections. In the first section the pieces are given in ordinary notation and in decorated pages such as this one, without any fingerings or other technical help, but only for the pleasure of users who prefer a Baroque decorated appearance of books containing Baroque music. In the second section the same pieces are presented in undecorated pages and in double systems of notation pentagrams and tablature hexagrams in which the fingerings for every piece become obvious by the tablature and without further need for more left hand guidance. Therefore this book can be printed on paper either in its complete given form, or in any other page arrangement the user may prefer. Blank pages are provided for insertion at correct places for the management of left and right sides of a two-side view, but the volume has been designed with a paperless environment in mind where a tablet and a score reading application would be used.

The thematic index is provided for general navigation withinthis electronic book.

1 Clicking on any image in the index takes the user to the relevant decorated page of music, or clicking within the square frame number beside each image links the user to the corresponding tablature pages.

2 Clicking on the title of any piece takes the user back to the index.

3 Clicking on the header of the page is used for interchanging between decorated and undecorated pages.

SKU: M0.97177EB

Composed by Mickey Cochran. Bluegrass. E-book. Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music #97177EB. Published by Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music (M0.97177EB).

Crosspicking technique on guitar is similar to bluegrass banjo, filling in all of the spaces between melody notes with a steady stream of harmony notes. With applied crosspicking technique, the guitar becomes a forceful solo instrument capable of filling a room with colorfully supported melodies. Not only does the guitar support itself, but crosspicking technique also works effectively for supporting other lead instruments and vocals in many styles of music including classical, rock, country, bluegrass, jazz, and new age. The methodology section of this eBook offers the intermediate to advanced guitarist many new ideas which can be added to their arsenal. The book also includes a full songbook section with an even wider repertoire to pursue. All of the lessons and songs are written in tablature only, so you don't have to read music, just count!

This solo guitar version of “Lavender Sky� was written and recorded as part of Keith’s 2006 Christmas/seasonal recording Songs of December. A few years later, a portion of this tune was used as part of the musical score for the award winning short film by David Field entitled Caterpillar. A third rendering of this piece with various instruments appears on Keith’s 2016 album Space and Time. This relatively easy solo version captures beautifully the colors of the December sky and is popular with students learning classical or fingerstyle guitar. The PDF print out includes standard notation with detailed fingerings. There's also a version with TAB on this site.

â??Girl on a Swingâ?� was recorded as part of Keithâ??s 2016 album Space and Time. The title of this piece was inspired by the lyrics of the 2005 song â??Simpleâ?� by Glen Phillips when he compared his wifeâ??s love to the gentle beauty of a little girl on a playground swing. The lyrics are as follows:

I'm complication
Live wire down
I'm agitation
Distorted sound

You're celebration
Girl on a swing
Passion and patience
Unbroken ring
You're simple, simple
You're simple
Simply all I need

While the album version features additional instruments, the piece works well as a guitar solo. This PDF includes detailed fingerings in standard notation. Thereâ??s also a version available with TAB on this site.

“Tone Poem No. 2 (Stars of the Desert Sky)� is the closing track of Keith’s 2016 album entitled Space and Time and the second in a series of close to ten pieces he's written under the title of “tone poem�. An interesting feature of “Stars of the Desert Sky� is that it incorporates an altered tuning of the 5th string (down to G) and the 3rd string (down to F#). This “open� tuning gives the piece a droning effect and is relatively easy to play. The title refers to Keith’s late brother Ken’s many photos of the landscape of the desert southwest and the particular beauty of the night sky far from city lights. While the recorded version of this piece features additional instruments including percussion, the music also works well as a guitar solo. This PDF includes detailed fingerings in standard notation. There’s also a version available with TAB on this site.

This PDF includes detailed fingerings in standard notation. Thereâ??s also a version available with TAB on this site.
