You just entered Chapter I Page No. 8 Plucking with my p on open bass strings |
We shall start with our right hand, with the thumb. The thumb - p, is the key for your right hand playing.
After each stroke it has to reach it's resting zero point. Practice the opening pages
slowly! |
The Thumb and the Bass
1. First touch... | Move your p in an ellipse manner |
2. An open bass string melody | Try to do as if you are throwing the p against the strings |
3. The jumping thumb | Before and after each stroke, the p is at the zero resting point |
Select a
tempo you will feel comfortable with. Go over this page a few times for a day ...after two
or three days go to the next page. As you progress, look back from time to time and play
the previous pages again! At this point you should play only a few minutes at a time. Take
a break when there is any feeling of pain in your back or hands. |
