Book Description
45 New Arrangments for Classical Guitar Players in Open D Tuning The classical guitar book in open D guitar tuning presents a new, and I think, additional way of approaching classical guitar repertoire. Tuning to an open chord, in this case, DADF#AD can have its benefits. The most obvious is that a major chord can be played with a single finger, or in the key of D, with open strings. Every attempt has been made to keep true to the original manuscripts, but occasionally the tune is transposed from the original, or the odd note has been altered to make the pieces playable. I have kept the arrangements primarily in the keys of D, G or A to take full advantage of the open strings in D tuning. In short, this book may not be for the classical guitar purist but does expand the repertoire that is lacking with open tunings. There is a good selection of graded pieces from prominent classical guitar composers like Aguado, Sor, Giuliani, Carcassi and Carulli, plus other well-known works by Bach, Dowland, Satie, Beethoven, de Visee, Diabelli, Grieg, Haydn, O’Carolan, Pachelbel, Paganini, Petzold, Sanz, Schumann and Vivaldi. I also adapted 24 of the Giuliani right-hand exercises, major and minor scales and arpeggios, plus fretboard charts to further develop your knowledge and technique in Open D. Each piece has notation, tablature in Open D tuning, right- and left-hand fingerings, and performance markings. An assortment of reference audio tracks are available online at the authors' website.

Celtic Flatpicking Open D Guitar Tuning
Author: Brent Robitaille
Publisher: Kalymi Music
ISBN: 177701025X
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 125
Book Description
Celtic Flatpicking in Open D Guitar Tuning Tuning your guitar to DADF#AD or "Open D" compliments Celtic music brilliantly. The open tuning allows the strings to vibrate easily, creating drones and overlapped notes that sound reminiscent of a harp or bagpipe. The 30+ tunes represent a good selection of well-known Celtic session tunes including, jigs, reels, hornpipes, waltzes and songs. Each tune shows notation, tablature and chords. Some of the tunes are arranged with chords added in with the melody, while the faster tunes just have the melody line. Go to my website (KalymiMusic.com) to play along with the accompaniment tracks to help learn the tunes quickly. If you are new to this style, then check out my twelve useful tips for Flatpicking. There are also some examples of how to use ornamentation to further embellish the tunes. For further study in Open D, I have included a series of chord and arpeggio charts with fingerboard diagrams. These charts will help you learn the DADF#AD fingerboard and allow you to accompany in Open D with Major, Minor and Dominant 7th chords. Campanella (overlapping) scales in Major and Minor are given plus Mixolydian and Dorian modal scales, which are common in this style. Use these scales as a technical practice to help master the fingerboard and to help achieve a flowing legato-sound to authentically play the tunes. There is also a small selection of common chords in Open D, some Celtic strumming patterns in 4/4 and 6/8, and note charts and DADF#AD fingerboard charts. If you are new to reading tablature, there is a page on how to read tablature and how to read rhythms.
