Goals are outlined and the best ways to achieve them are explored but the principal focus is on the arrangement of the curriculum in a logical sequence. Such a structure provides a reasonable progression from simple to more complex objectives not only from day to day but from year to year. Structured learning need not be the enemy of improvisation but rather the best way to provide students with the tools they need to improvise.The book contains an introduction to the development of Orff-Schulwerk and a discussion of the distinguishingfeatures of this approach. Chapter Two introduces the activities children use in their music-making. The teaching procedure that structures those activities is taken up in Chapter Three while Chapter Four explains the vocabulary and accompaniment theory essential to the Orff teacher. Part Two applies these elements in a sequential curriculum designed for Grades One through Five. Especially important in each chapter is the inclusion of supporting activities designed to aid in teaching the various skills and concepts.

This Bass method differs from others since it is entirely based on practice. You will not find riffs or licks of one or two lines but rather full pieces in the style of some of the greatest bluesmen - Otis Rush BB King Eric Clapton Freddie King Buddy Guy Albert King Stevie Ray Vaughan Magic Sam and more. Before addressing the 50 Bass lines in this method a preliminary chapter will teach you how to build lines in the blues style. In doing so you will be able to analyse what you areplaying later before learning to create your own. Youâ??ll also be introduced to structure rhythm arpeggios scales chromatic approaches and more. The included DVD allows you to listen to all of the featured Bass lines played at normal speed thenat a reduced speed in order to learn the right gestures. The MP3 CD contains backing tracks for you to play along to at two different speeds: the first being normal (the speed to be achieved) while the second is reduced to help with study. Intotal over seven hours of music is included giving you the opportunity to practice in the best possible conditions.This Bass method differs from others since it is entirely based on practice.

Tapping is a technique that involves playing notes with both hands directly on the neck of the Bass Guitar. It was popularised by virtuosos such as Adam Nitti, Stuart Hamm, Victor Wooten and Billy Sheehan, but has become more and more popular with amateur players for the unique and futuristic sounds it can produce. With Tapping A La Basse, you can learn everything necessary to master this cool technique.In four chapters, this method will help you learn how to make strange and wonderful sounds with two-handed tapping. The first chapter details linear tapping, the second will teach you how to create great riffs and licks with tapped arpeggios, the third lets you combine tapping and chords, while the fourth and final chapter will reveal polyphonic tapping. While some technical exercises are revealed, this method is primarily based on practising, ensuring that you master all the techniques through playing them. The accompanying DVD is a great help in letting you hear and visualise how the tapping should sound and be played. Two different speeds enable you to see how it's done at normal speed, then slowed down so you can play along and gradually get to grips with the style. With technical and musical examples within this method, you will gain all the details needed to grasp Bass Guitar tapping! / Guitare Basse
