Samba Guitar 3

Uh this only concern guitar 3's for samba. just a few tips for u guys when u all go on with ur prac. jiayou ppl.


General:

1) In guitar notation, Up arrow means down stroke while Down arrow means up stroke. seems weird? not really. Up means from low note to high note. which translate to a downstroke on ur guitar and vice versa.

2) If u look at pg 2 2nd bar. the dot there is a dotted quaver, and the 2nd up stroke is a semi-quaver etc.

3) the ./. means play in similiar way as the previous bar (i.e. play th same rhythm)



For those not barring:

1) Pls do not choke for the rest. tilt ur hand slightly inwards to touch the strings with the whole thumb portion to stop the chord from ringing.


(P.S esp to those who were there for last trng. SORRY i think i made a mistake >< href="http://www.chordimages.com//ramimages/i2/E7chord_020100_1.png">here this is the slackest way to press E7

But usually we do this: here cos if we only play the trebles it would sound the same as Emaj if we don't do that. (add the D at 2nd string)


2) As for the rest of the chords u can find how to hold them here
Am
Dm
G (major)
E9
Am9


There shd be no prob with Am, Dm and G, but we'll standardize the chord shape for E9 and Am9 cos there are alot of variation. Will ask Mr Shi again this wed, but ya for now just use this.


For those barring:

1) Various Bar location:
Am - 5th fret, based on 6th string
Dm - 5th fret, based on 5th string
E7 - 7th fret, based on 5th string
G - 3rd fret, based on 6th string
C - 8th fret, based on 6th string
E9 - here actually u can play the 6th string too. cos its a E but just make sure during the rest u cant just lift up ur bar but have to stop with ur R. hand
Am9 - here

2) u can actually rest by just lifting ur bar. unless there's a open string e.g. E9.


Ok thats all. jiayou guitar 3s.
