New Masterclass: "Time to Say Goodbye", Italian Song
Time to Say Goodbye, Tutorial Video 1/15 With Slow Motion
I love "Time to Say Goodbye" wholeheartedly and I have heard it performed by singers throughout Paraguay and it is irresistible to me. I transcribed it and fingered it because I consider it a great addition to my students' repertoire -and mine of course-. It fits the classical guitar beautifully and offers beautiful challenges that you will have no trouble in surpassing. The main challenge as it is usually the case with all songs is to keep the main melody in centerstage. This is achieved controlling the dynamics of each voice and to a degree the tome of each one of the voices. The thumb will work in conjunction with the i-m-a in the long 16th notes sequences in order to achieve a deep round sound. I will also illustrate how to master Levers and how to Present the left hand fingers correctly on the fingerboard using Longitudinal, Transversal or Mixed Presentations. Visit the Masterclass
