Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 64

Book Description
This book offers guitarists a graded selection of 71 carols for the holiday season. Most of the arrangements are graded variations in that each tune starts with an easy reading beginner arrangement (excellent for students and the last minute reading gig) and ends with intermediate settings using techniques such as tremolo, jazz voicings, and three voice counterpoint. All of the music in this book is typeset in landscape format so that no page turns are required, and printed in standard notation only with suggested left-hand fingering. the book fits beautifully on any folding music stand and (because of the low landscape format) leaves plenty of room for any standard clip-on light. the Holiday Gig Book is an excellent source of holiday tunes for the working guitarist.

"A DADGAD Christmas" is a collection of twenty-one arrangements of Christmas favorites for solo fingerstyle guitar, all in DADGAD tuning - a popular alternate tuning for guitar.

The first part of the book, the Gig Book, contains arrangements that are easy enough for beginner, but that are also meant to act as templates for your own arrangements. With a bit of practice you should be able to pull out these arrangements whenever you are asked to play a Christmas song and read the music, elaborating on the basic arrangements simply by adding your own variations within the basic structure. The second half of the book, Performance Arrangements, features longer, more complete arrangements of nine tunes, perfect for performances in any setting - with friends and family, in church, or in a concert.
