Jewish Traditions for Classical and Fingerstyle Guitar: with TAB Edition

Description: A beautiful variety of traditional Jewish melodies arranged for classical or fingerstyle guitar. This is the "with Tab" edition. The tab is well done. And while you can't yet preview this edition, you can get a sense of the book's interior by having a look at the first edition of the book -- which does not have tab in it, but is otherwise identical. That first edition can be previewed at https://www.ellenwhitakerguitar.com/guitar-music.html. 20 solos and 6 duets. 187 pages. Some of the pieces are quite lengthy and the duets are arranged so that each player has the melody at times and both parts are equally fun and challenging. Included are Sephardic, Yiddish, Israeli and eastern folk songs, as well as Chassidic tunes, Klezmer tunes and music originally sung by Cantors. Intermediate and advanced level, with a few pieces included that can be enjoyed also by less experienced players. Professional guitarists will find this collection especially interesting. Annotations and Performance Notes for each piece, providing historical and/or cultural perspective as well as technical guidance. An Appendix (with Glossary) discusses in considerable detail Jewish scales and modes. A Bibliography and Discography are also provided. Praised by Steve Marsh of Classical Guitar magazine and by Judith Pinnolis of Brandeis University and Jewish Music Web Center among others.
