Charlie Byrd is recognized as a music giant throughout the world. The role of the guitar in bridging classical and popular music forms is a matter of history, but the emergence of a guitarist equally at ease in both classical and jazz idioms is an event of singular exception. Charlie Byrd was unquestionably one of the world's most versatile artists and truly a musical institution. This book includes an accompanying CD and an additional discography of Charlie Byrd's recordings. Tune selections: The First Word; At the Seaside; Little Girls at Play; New Shoes; Waltz Op. 39, No. 1; 11 Waltz Op. 39, No. 2; Waltz Op. 39, No. 3; and more. The companion CD presents a performance of each piece in the book.

Charlie Byrd - Sugarloaf Suite Book/CD Set

<p>Blues Sonata is a "swingin' blues" in sonata form, approximately 22 minutes long, recorded by the Charlie Byrd Trio. Also in this book are three "standard" jazz-blues pieces arranged and recorded by John Griggs. All of the works are written in both standard and tab notation. These pieces are designed for both performance and learning. The standards have a lead line, an arpeggio study, a chord scale study, and a four-chorus performance arrangement. The four-chorus arrangements follow a standard performance routine used in clubs and on stage. For variety, during the third chorus the teacher or another instrument can take the lead. These pieces can be played either fingerstyle or with a pick.</p>

<p>Charlie Byrd JAZZ GUITAR WORKSHOP presents a melodic way of learning essential scales and arpeggios (in all 12 keys) which are then applied to pieces. The pieces are arranged in a Jazz style and are suitable for performance as well as for study. Three of the pieces have a lead line, an arpeggio study, a chord scale study, and a four-chorus performance arrangement. The four-chorus arrangements follow a standard performance routine used in clubs and on stage. For variety, during the 3rd chorus the teacher or another instrument can take the lead. To develop ear playing, you can practice the scale and arpeggio studies daily, until you can play them in all keys fluently. Playing "pick style" and "finger style" are both advocated in this book. The music is in notation and tablature.</p>
