>) VIL. ARPEGGIOS WITH Two HAnpD TAPPING Whatisan “arpeggio"? An arpeggiois the notes of achord played separately. Take an A minor chord for instance. The notes in this chord are A.C, and E. Now if you Play these three notes at the same fime it produces an A minor ‘chord’, but if you Play them consecutively (one after another) you've got an A minor ‘arpegglo" In this section we'll deal strictly with arpeggios by applying them to common and interesting chord progressions. rd Check out the G major arpeggio in Example 30 | Ni i) The notes in a G mojor chord are G.8,andD,so G Major we'll take those three notes and make up a sequenced arpeggio lick. or The second phase to learning arpeggios is to apply them to chord progressions. Now we'll apply the sequenced arpeggio from the previ- ‘ousexampletothe chordsinExample3i.Check Mm OOO 1 + OOO+1 4 ‘out the classically flavored overtones in this one. ea AWD la Emi Ami Dimaj 8*Enire piece ae GN a G 6 ‘ TeerHttePren 3 Treprwtrer er TEP WT Tee eh yy pent the Fingers ©OO4 14 OOO4 14 OOH4 14 OOO41 + OOH4 14+ OOO* Gmaj maj Fim tite ew teen titre tree O©GO4 14 OHHO4 1 4 OHH414OOH41 4 OOOH 14 OOO4!

Examples 32 thru 34 are three new sequenced arpeggio licks to apply over the chords of Example 31. Notice that these three new licks use the same notes as the sequenced ‘arpeggio in Example 30. The only difference is each lick rearranges the notes of the arpeggio. Example 32 begins with your pinky finger Example 33 is quite a bit easier because It tapping. so it may be a little more difficut. leads with the index finger tapping.

They are based off the same sequenced arpeggio concept, but these incorporate two and three strings. 140410040410 Example 35 uses notes of a G major chord on (c ] adjacent strings.

Fingers In Example 37 you'll see that it's played on three strings and uses string skipping. \V> etter Ena Fingers Each arpeggio in Example 38 moves across the stings ascending and descending. | @O10411O0+041 041401400048 suggest learning one arpeggio shape at a time until you can play all four smoothly, Then work on connecting the first two ar- Pegglos, the fist three and finally all four. Practice this slowly and evenly at first, then gradually bulld up speed. (iP © Your Job now is to apply Examples 36 thru 37 to the chord progression from Example 31 Something else you should do is to play Examples 32 thru 37 as G minor arpeggios. G mojor arpeggio = G BD G minor arpeggio = G Bb D To do this, simply lower all the *B" notes one fret to make them “Bb’ G om ‘ Lf oe : ; wre ti Pure = oe SEE se Dmj PF Pe LD 2202101 202 101202101729 O21 2H! 101202 3037G21O1 2023 25
