REVIEWS

Magazine Classical Guitar, England Colin COOPER " ... his style is of an agreeable and tasteful suavity. His own pieces, 'Waiting for news,' 'Metamorphose,' 'Travel­ling in time' and 'Green soft light' are particularly appealing."

Magazine Classical Guitar, England Colin COOPER " ... his composition, always good-mannered and civilised, easy on the ear, ... quiet, unassuming, modest, yet with self-assurance, a considerable technique when he cared to use it, and a lot of Russian charm."

Magazine Classical Guitar, England Paul FOWLES "It's not often that a reviewer is heard shouting 'Eureka! ' but I came very close to it on reading through this marvellous set of six studies (published by the French publishing house 'Lemoine.' Here it is at last; jazz for the classical guitar which sounds like a real thing. Vinitsky gets everything right. His writing is one hundred percent guitaristic, and yet he never once lapses into the age-old cliche ... He also knows how to write a good tune, the final study (subtitled Evgenia) being one of those catchy encore pieces you just can't get out of your head."

Magazine Classical Guitar, England Arie LAYSCH "An example of intellectual and poetical jazz was Alexander Vinitsky (Russia-Israel), who plays pure jazz on a guitar with no additions or technical effects whatsoever, proving that the instrument has an abundance of musi­cally expressive possibilities."

Exercises Jazz Notation bas one important peculiarity- the eighth notes, although written in traditional fashion, are perfonned in jazz style.

This style of performance is called "swing." It is marked n = j ) or "swing" is written above the clef at the beginning of the work or after the tempo marking or time signature. Rhythm is the main characteristic of jazz music. That's why it is important to learn to feel the jazz rhythm and enjoy it. Note: It is essential to combine study with listening to jazz music. It will help you play the music.

Attention! If you write notation the way it sounds, it may be more difficult to read. So let's agree that ...-:-J ....,..,

the notation will be as usual, but the eight notes will be performed in "swing" style as j ) . The following exercises and etudes should be pe1formed in jazz style.

Exercise 2

As we have already said, the most important element in jazz music is RHYTHM. The double bassist and drummer are responsible for rhythm in a jazz band, so try to play the part as though it is a double bass part- with deep sound (rest stroke is preferable). The Bass provides the foundation of rhythm, and the upper notes, as though leaning on it, are performed in jazz style. In this exercise the bass part changes in every bar. Try to play bass notes legato, emulating the double bass and giving the impression that two instruments are playing - double bass and guitar.

Exercise 3

The following exercise repeats the chord progression heard in exercise 2, but the arpeggio is changed. Try to give the illusion that two instruments are playing - double bass and guitar. Do not forget to swing the eighth notes.

Exercise 4

In this exercise the division of bass and upper voice is brighter. The bass part acquires more independence and mobility, and the treble takes on the features of a solo part.

Etudes Etude No 1

While performing this etude, try to hear how the bass and melodic voice interact. Pay attention to tied notes which should sound as if they are "throwing" their impetua down to the bass. Practice these fragments, until you can play them easily and naturally.

Etude No2 In this etude the bass part is written in a quarter note, stepwise motion called "walking" bass. The treble portion in combination with the "walking" bass sounds like a backup or rhythm part guitar. Using swing eighth rhythm, try to make the chords sound as if they are thrown from the bass notes on beats l and 3. Reversing the pattern, the chords are throwing their energy to the bass notes on beats 2 and4.

Etude Nn3 This etude repeats the chord progression in etude 2, but there are three parts in it - melody, accompaniment, and bass. Melody and bass must be played brightly, and the accompaniment softer. There is not much accompaniment in this etude: In the first bar, the major 3rd (G-B); in bar 2 - a perferct 4th (E-A); in bar 3 - a minor 3rd (A-C); in bar 4 - no accompaniment note; in bar 5- a minor 3rd (E-G); in measure 6, a single accompaniment note (E); in bar 7, a diminish~d 5th (D#-A); and in the second ending, again, a single note (A). Performing this etude, try to play all these parts as though three instruments are playing - double-bass, accompanying guitar and solo-guitar. Mind the tied notes; they sound as if they are throwing their energy down to the following bass note.

r Etude Nn 4 This etude is composed in "bossa-nova" jazz style. The main difference of bossa-nova from swing is rhythm. In bossa-nova all eighth notes are played evenly as written. Meanwhile, as in swing, the bass plays the role of rhythmic base, and the chords sound as though thrown from the bass or throwing to the bass.

Throwing to the chords from the bass:

Rhythm in "Latino" style is built on rhythm patterns consisting of one or two bars. In Etude #4 we use a simple one-bar pattern. If we write this rhythmic pattern as a projection of all parts in one line (as we write rhythm for percussion instruments), you can easily beat (tap) this rhythm. Let 's write the rhythmic formula of the first two bars the way it repeats throughout the etude. Tap this pattern like this: bass thumb (p); chord-fingers i m a. Before playing the etude, perfect the interaction of these fingers on the pattern.

Etude NoS Melodically, this etude looks like Etude 3, in which you played three parts simultaneously in "swing" style. Here the task is the same - to sound like three instruments, but in "bossa-nova" style. This etude includes two parts, built upon a similar but slightly different rhythm pattern. The first part is built on a one-bar rhythm pattern; the second on a two-bar pattern.

Tap the rhythm pattern as written here with all the fingers of your right hand. Then, tap the notes without the guitar, using the fmgering given. Doing these exercises, you '11 master the independence of the right hand fmgers and the steady rhythm of the bossa-nova.

Just as you did for the first part, tap the rhythm of Part 2. To better memorize the rhythm and all the parts, while tapping you may softly sing to yourself, for example, try the following syllables: "pu-m" for low bass notes, "pa-pa" for high melody notes and accompaniment, and melody and bass notes coincide on the same note value, they may be sung as the syllable "pi." You may also invent your own syllables.

Etude Nn6

Slow Blues

This etude is composed in the blues style. In blues, the theme usually consists of 12 measures that fit a three - line verse form with 4 bars per line. The melody is accompanied by a chord progression that removes the same from verse to verse. The blues scale, a major scale with the 3rd, 5th and 7th degrees lowered by a half tone, is also characteristic of the blues. You can hear the blue notes at work in nearly every measure of this etude, but especially in bar 10.

Commentary Duets

The pieces in this unit are written for a guitar duet, but the solo part can also be played on a violin or a flute. These duets can be interesting to the guitarist, wishing to play a duet with a guitarist friend, a violinist or a flutist, as well as to teachers of guitar, who can play duets with their pupils. All of these duets are written in a style that can be related to popular music because I used chord progressions and keys from popular music in accompaniment and melodies.

"Morning Song", "Lullaby", "Dance of the Forest Gnomes" The solo parts of the first three duets are easy to play since each of them is played on one string and consists of three notes. Thus, in "Morning Song", "Lullaby" , and "Dance of the Forest Gnomes" the beginner guitarist gets acquainted with notes on the fingerboard, their duration, pauses, rhythm and technique. And all this is not j ust in theory, but in practice, playing beautiful music.

"Light Rain" The solo part is performed with a change of timbre by means of the right hand. Play with a cheerful character and precise rhythm in the introduction. To play harmonics on open strings in the solo part, lightly touch the string at the specified fret with a left-hand finger, and pluck the string with the right hand.

" Happy Couple" The solo and accompaniment in this duet are played in jazz style . Be careful to play the bass part in the accom­paniment evenly.

"The Small Ballad" The solo part of this duet is written in quarter and half notes. Therefore, in the theme, the jazz style is not felt. But the accompaniment needs to be played jazz style.

"At a Circus" It is a duet-picture. Before playing this piece, imagine a very funny clown and other characters of this show. Humor and ease should be present in your performance. A relaxed rate will allow you to work in all the details of the piece and to convey its cheerful character.
