GUITAR TECHNIQUE TIP OF THE MONTH Yes, it's "Doug's Dirty Little Secrets"
|
I subtitled my Tech Tip "Doug's Dirty Little Secrets" after reading someone's posted message on a guitar web forum. The writer asserted that professional virtuoso guitarists all had secrets they kept to themselves and wouldn't tell anyone else, so no one would play as well as them!

Once again, for my Christmas Technique Tip of the Month, I offer a gift to you of a special
arrangement of a Christmas carol. I usually try to make these easy to play (but still sound full
and interesting) so they can be learned by Christmas.
NOTE: This is NOT the same arrangement as the one on my Christmas CD, In Heavenly
Peace.
Listen to me play it. See what you think! (A separate window will open that you can
minimize in order to still see the written musical example as you listen.)
This version of Away In A Manger uses the melody most often heard in England, but was
actually written by American hymn composer William J. Kirkpatrick. It was first published in
1895. My special thanks goes to composer/guitarist Elizabeth Niedt for her valuable assistance
with this arrangement.
The complete arrangement can be perused below, but it's hard to read from Firefox and
Internet Explorer unless you magnify the screen).
It is best to view and/or print out the PDF version. (This will open in a new window.)
Merry Christmas. Enjoy!
