Practice Hints for Carcassi Study No. 3 (26.5)

         This Study No. 3 by Carcass is probably the most challenging selection in my method, but it is also the most rewarding. Even though it is called “study” it is nevertheless a beautiful piece.

         The right hand should be no problem, since the same finger pattern is used throughout the piece. You should begin your practice by playing the first measure over and over to secure the right hand pattern.

          Again, this piece should be practiced in chords. Basically each measure has one main chord with one note of the chord changing on the third beat.

Line one, measure two:

The main chords of this measure would be:

Practice Hints for Spanish Ballad (26.4)

         This selection will be a good challenge for you. Again this piece can be practiced in chords which should let you progress much faster.

          In this piece a first and second ending are being used. Play to the first ending.

and then repeat from the beginning of the piece. When you get to the bottom of the page, skip the first ending and jump into the second ending

         The same rule applies to the second page. Below the second ending of the second page you will see the following: D. C. al Fine. This means go back to the beginning of the piece and play till you see the word Fine.

         Watch the change in key signatures. The second page is written in four sharps:

          It will take you a while to figure out the higher notes. Don’t loose patience. This piece is not as hard as it might seem.

          As in the minuet, you will have to practice in chords. The chords are not as obvious as in the minuet since they are spread out over the whole measure.

Line one, measure one:

This is the chord once
you ignore the repeated notes.

There are also some new symbols in this piece:

                       This tells you to bar (placing your first finger across all the strings) the fifth fret with your finger.

Bar the first four strings.

C = Cejilla = Spanish for fret

Note:

        When you bar a fret and you see a 1 as a fingering, remember that you are already playing that note.

         

Practice Hints for Minuet in D Major (26.2)

          Baroque music often sounds a lot easier that it really is.

          This minuet needs to be practiced in chords. Every measure has a chord. When you practice just the chords, your left hand will be trained better and it will be easier to play it the way it is actually
written.


Line one, measure one

The chord in this measure consists of D (open fourth string),A, D, F sharp.

Minuet in D
