Produktbeschreibung
Position X and The Twelve Shape Theorem is an advanced yet practical guitar chord and scale shape reference for all guitarists to enjoy. In Position X, all the shapes are movable to, and at the same time fit in, any single position along the guitar fretboard. Position X introduces and showcases the twelve main root note shapes as they exist in the given guitar position using four chord types, the augmented, major, minor and diminished, as well as four scale types, the descending melodic minor, harmonic, ascending melodic minor and major. The very cool three on a string pentatonic scale shapes are thus featured beneath the related descending melodic minor form and all modes are considered to be part of the major scale when questioned. In this book, six is the exact number of consecutive frets involved in any guitar position and each one of those positions contains a musical span of two octaves plus a perfect fourth. Also, the 2nd & 3rd fingers on the fretting hand are to remain stationary in that six fret position. This is considered normal for the fretting hand and as such, the first and fourth fingers can stretch or slide just a fret in either direction. And last but not least, there is a 1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6 string picking cycle that occurs under the 2nd & 3rd fingers of the fretting hand when all the notes are placed in either chromatic or alphabetical order. The picking hand, fingers or plectrum, simply takes advantage of this cycle. Enjoy!
Autorenporträt
Meet the author Walter Klosowski "Kapowski"! In addition to writing books like this, Mr. "Kapowski" is a professional guitarist, composer and public school music educator. He holds a Master's degree in Music Theory on scholarship with emphasis on classical guitar as well as a Bachelor's degree in Music Theory/Composition and Guitar Performance. He is also the recipient of the Piano Guild USA Sonatina Award as well as three NSFM piano federation competition pins. In this book, POSITION X, the material is presented in a special way as to provide technical clarity and practicality to an all too often obscured subject area, that of the inner workings of the typical guitar position. Having been in the print music industry for over ten years, the book was authored by "Kapowski" in direct response to the lack of printed scholarly materials that focus only on the guitar positions and position work, all of which is especially evident at the onset of instruction. Compared to other members of the string instrument family there is no real technical standard in place that guitarists readily go to for position work, and the materials that are available do not readily venture to explain that which is lies beyond the guitar's first position. POSITION X perfectly counters this situation, and is very practical to use no matter what one's technical level. Enjoy!
