It can be heard in any genre from folk and country music through popular, jazz and rock music to classical music itself. I have been working as a teacher of music – playing the guitar to be more precise – for approximately ten years now. I want to connect the knowledge gathered in the field of playing and teaching the instrument to the field of my current studies – English language. This thesis is focused on denotations of guitar techniques and their usage – it deals with the guitar music in the sense of playing the instrument, not in the sense of the music itself. The denotations and phrases are divided into two groups according to the kind of the guitar they are related to: the classical (Spanish) guitar at one end and the electric (rock) guitar at the other. The origin and character of the phrases is discussed. Special attention is paid to the accuracy (or differences) between the execution of the technique itself and the meaning of its denotation in the respective language. One of the aims of this thesis is to determine in which language the denotations are more precise and understandable. The theoretical part deals with lexicology in general and describes tools and viewpoints used in the thesis. It also lists the denotations that are discussed and analyzed in the practical part. The practical part describes techniques used while playing classical and rock guitar comparing their Czech and English equivalents. Some basic phrases and words concerning theory of music and music in general are added in order to make the text more understandable and relevant to the topic. According to my knowledge there is a dictionary related to the lexicon of music in general but there is none considering guitar techniques as a separate subject. There is an English-Czech glossary of terms concerning classical guitar included at the end of the practical part. Nowadays almost all international guitar courses are performed in English language that is why the information may be useful not only for students of English language but for guitar players as well. The thesis can be used as a source of new vocabulary as well as a useful tool for improving communication during guitar courses and master classes. I have studied playing the classical guitar in Conservatoire České Budějovice and became a teacher of the instrument. My main field of expertise is classical guitar but I have also been teaching rock guitar for the last three years. I had been interested in rock music before I studied the classical one and as a matter of fact rock guitar terminology almost exclusively consists of English denotations. I intend to connect these three areas in this thesis. 6 2 Theoretical Part 2.1 Lexicon According to Collins English Dictionary “lexicon” is “a list of terms relating to a particular subject“ (Collins). The lexicon that is the subject of this thesis was collected during my teaching practise and it concerns guitar playing techniques. The phrases were selected according to their usage and also to their importance. Their order is determined by their connection to the following text which means that the best way how to read the practical part is from the beginning to the end. Any new phrase is either mentioned in the previous text or explained in the next section. Cross references are used throughout the Practical part for better coherence of the whole text. Another factor that was taken into account was the meaning of the phrases and the relation between the precision of the expression in the language and actual execution in case of techniques and possible connotations in case of abstract denotations. Some phrases or words were added with the aim of clarification of other phrases or their more detailed definitions. Only basic concepts are addressed in this thesis to keep it concise but detailed enough at the same time. It is focused on English and Czech equivalents – the Spanish ones are mentioned because without further explanation. The theoretical part deals with linguistic concepts of the phraseology (it gives dictionary meaning and explains the connections among the phrases). The practical part is focused on meanings and explanations of the phrases and on comparison of possible connotations and extra-linguistic connections to reality (e.g. the execution of a playing technique) in both Czech and English languages. That is why the Czech equivalents used throughout the practical part are followed by literal translations in English language – to describe the meaning of the Czech phrases as precisely as possible. The phrases can be divided into three main groups. The first group consists of phrases concerning classical guitar, the second rock guitar and the third group deals with phrases that are used for both types of the instrument plus several concepts from general music theory (with a connection to guitar music in one way or another). The most common or “normal” way of playing is being described which means: right

    Introduction To Flamenco: Rhythmic Foundation and Accompaniment by "Flamenco Chuck" Keyser P.O. Box 1292 Santa Barbara, CA 93102 [email protected] http://users.aol.com/BuleriaChk/private/flamenco.html © Charles H. Keyser, Jr. 1993 (Painting by Rowan Hughes) Flamenco Philosophy IA My own view of Flamenco is that it is an artistic expression of an intense awareness of the existential human condition. It is an effort to come to terms with the concept that we are all "strangers and afraid, in a world we never made"; that there is probably no higher being, and that even if there is he/she (or it) is irrelevant to the human condition in the final analysis. The truth in Flamenco is that life must be lived and death must be faced on an individual basis; that it is the fundamental responsibility of each man and woman to come to terms with their own alienation with courage, dignity and humor, and to support others in their efforts. It is an excruciatingly honest art form. For flamencos it is this ever-present consciousness of death that gives life itself its meaning; not only as in the tragedy of a child's death from hunger in a far-off land or a senseless drive-by shooting in a big city, but even more fundamentally in death as a consequence of life itself, and the value that must be placed on life at each moment and on each human being at each point in their journey through it. And it is the intensity of this awareness that gave the Gypsy artists their power of expression.

Before you can free the music in yourself, you need to clear the roadblock that is holding you back from expressing the music freely. Many guitar students struggle with their freedom of expression when playing blues solos, mainly because they believe that ‘blues is an easy style’ and because of this they never focus on blues guitar technique. This mistake causes the student to only get partial results when improvising and lays also at the root of why many struggle to play blues guitar solos effortless. How To Take Your Mind Of Guitar Technique Guitar technique should be practiced in order to take your mind of technique. Once you focused on the right exercises then you will find yourself in a place where you don’t have to actively think about technique anymore (even when playing the most challenging passages, licks, riffs or solos).

  • Guitar Best Practices Years 1, 2, 3 and 4 Nafme Council for Guitar
    Guitar Best Practices Years 1, 2, 3 and 4 Many schools today offer guitar classes and guitar ensembles as a form of music instruction. While guitar is a popular music choice for students to take, there are many teachers offering instruction where guitar is their secondary instrument. The NAfME Guitar Council collaborated and compiled lists of Guitar Best Practices for each year of study. They comprise a set of technical skills, music experiences, and music theory knowledge that guitar students should know through their scholastic career. As a Guitar Council, we have taken careful consideration to ensure that the lists are applicable to middle school and high school guitar class instruction, and may be covered through a wide variety of method books and music styles (classical, country, folk, jazz, pop). All items on the list can be performed on acoustic, classical, and/or electric guitars. NAfME Council for Guitar Education Best Practices Outline for a Year One Guitar Class YEAR ONE - At the completion of year one, students will be able to: 1. Perform using correct sitting posture and appropriate hand positions 2. Play a sixteen measure melody composed with eighth notes at a moderate tempo using alternate picking 3. Read standard music notation and play on all six strings in first position up to the fourth fret 4. Play melodies in the keys C major, a minor, G major, e minor, D major, b minor, F major and d minor 5.
