Meaning: Tell us how you would teach a student how a rest or free stroke is executed. Step by step, and what the student should be looking / hearing (shape of finger/nails, shape of hand/fingers/wrist/arm, thumb position, sound volume/quality/articulation, differences on trebles/basses,... ) for while doing so. I'm guessing, if something is wrong with that, no matter how long you going to practice that alternation, it will not work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-191952706132840163.post-39624741243639271772011-02-20T07:31:00.835-05:002011-02-20T07:31:00.835-05:00If you ever do have cause to run naked in celebrat...If you ever do have cause to run naked in celebration, as you suggested, it's the English drizzle that would put you off, not the snow.<br /><br />Re. your right hand, I've never understood the guitarists' rationale with sympathetic movement, m/a fingers moving together and so on. If other instrumentalists can develop finger independence why not us?<br /><br />Personally I've tried to develop speed by using ami combinations: again, if we do that naturally for arpeggios then why not for scales? However, I've also found that developing speed in that way has helped greatly with i/m alternation as well.<br /><br />I do think there is room for a far more analytical approach to these issues though. In the guitar world it seems that almost every player works out their own, highly individual approach, to a quite surprising degree.<br /><br />Best regards.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03872520796688183684noreply@blogger.com
