Guitar Lesson 17b: Dynamics in an acoustic band and soloing tips

In the second part of our lesson about playing acoustic guitar, Dan answers my question about how best to develop dynamics in an acoustic band.  Clearly much of this is down to good communication and familiarity with the people who you are playing with, but Dan comes up with some really interesting techniques and advice for being heard when soloing and having interesting dynamics for your audience.  The podcast can be listened to in full below and then I have also included a couple of relevant episodes from Jude Gold’s fantastic guitar podcast – NGIS or No Guitar is Safe – one on Tommy Emmanuel and one with Laurence Juber.

Episode 17b:

I edited and published this episode while travelling on holiday with my family (the podcasts are pre-recorded and I still have a couple of lessons already in the process of being edited into mini-lessons for you).  I edited episode 17b while on our flight and then, have had to be patient, because up to now I haven’t had the means of recording the intro.

I thought it might also be nice to include a little bit of information about our travels as part of this blog and attached to the relevant lessons for you.

Currently, we are in Monterey Bay having just left San Francisco.  San Francisco was a superb stay even though we did not have our luggage from the plane for the whole time we were staying in an AirBNB with the lovely Rosemarie in Millbrae.  The company we were flying with were an absolute joke (Westjet) and their communication with us was very poor indeed as obviously not having our luggage with a one year old (my daughter – Clara) was rather inconvenient to say the least.  Finally after spending time in San Francisco, enjoying meals, shopping in Chinatown, the cable cars and the Exploratorium (a great science museum!) we were set to get our hire car and start our road trip.  As our luggage still wasn’t with us we have had to hire a car seat (eventually at the expense of the airline we hope) and drove off to Monterey.

On the way we stopped and saw a whale blowing off out to sea and also some dolphins – which I managed to get a photo of.  When we arrived at Monterey we were reunited with our luggage and today have spent an amazing day looking round the outstanding Aquarium here.  We have seen sea otters out to sea and in the aquarium, seals, sea lions and a plethora of birds.

While delayed I put together a bit of playing from me and Dan into a little video which I share here:

Our set of lessons on the acoustic came at a good time, as Jude Gold has just published his podcast episode of an interview with Tommy Emmanuel from before one of his concerts.  It is brilliant and I really strongly recommend listening to that podcast; and also on the topic of acoustic guitar his interview with Laurence Juber.  Both are linked below:

Lesson 2 (rhythm track): Extended Chords, Intervals, and Lead Sheet Creation

Open the extended chords sheet. Read it. Understand that extended chords are 9th, 11th, and 13 chords. Chords with notes beyond and including the 7th create this extended harmony. (sus, add, and 6th chords aren't extended chords) Theorists have different opinions on this topic but for simplicity sake I will go with what I have above as my definition. The biggest point to remain aware of while building chords is that the major scale is used for adding intervals always. The chord's quality doesn't matter. We'll focus deeper on extended chords in the next lesson and will apply them to a piece a music. Take the time to get acquainted with them and grasp the new material.

Open the interval sheet. Familiarize yourself with the lingo. Major, Minor, Augmented, Diminished, and Perfect are interval qualities. Unison, Octave, and Tritones are names for specific intervals that we use names instead of numbers. Play any of the guitar strings open then play any fret on the same string, name the note then figure the interval. Try this between strings and in random spots to practice. Notice the exercise at the bottom of the sheet and do it. Inverted intervals show "opposite" intervals. C up to E, a major 3rd, and E up to C, a minor 6th, are inverted. The qualities are opposite except with perfect intervals. (perfect intervals are still perfect when inverted) The numbers always equal 9. Play an interval on your guitar and name it. Name it's inversion. This concept is important for arranging which is discussed later.

5-step Lead Sheet Creation: (how to make a good lead sheet)

1. Google search "name of song chords" (www.ultimate-guitar.com is a great site)

2. Find a seemingly good version and copy the lyrics and chords into a new file

3. Make sure the chords are correct by playing in a more simple way

4. Line up the chords over the words/syllables when the chords change

5. Format to your preference after labeling the appropriate sections (intro, verse 1, chorus)

Printing your lead sheet is the final thing to do. See "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" - Guns N' Roses and notice the I - IV - V progression in G major. There's a vi chord thrown in too, which is the IV chord's relative. Knockin' on Heaven's Door is written by Bob Dylan but I like Guns N' roses' version. The name that comes after the title of the song doesn't have to be the composer. Try the CRI method on this piece of music and see what kind of arrangement you can come up with. (CAGED, Relative Major/minor, and Inversions)

Use this lead sheet to create a format template for future lead sheets. For example, I like to bold anything that isn't lyrics. (title and band name, section titles, chords, capo placement) I also like to keep all the text black. (sometimes chords are blue when copied from online) This sheet has the strumming pattern included on the bottom but I've never included that on any other sheet. Lead sheets are probably how most students will see music for the rest of their lives. Therefore, it is important to have a solid understanding about them. Message me with any questions.

Because of the complex nature of the songs I teach in this plan, I will only show my private lessons how to play them. I'm providing on Tumblr all the necessary material you need to learn them but you will have to figure out anything I don't type about.
