A good accompanist adds depth, sparkle and excitement to a song, punctuating it with improvised lines and well-placed chords, then stepping forward at the right point to take a solo. The trick is to enhance the performance, making a musical statement without "stepping on" the vocalist's lyrics.
Artie Traum has accompanied dozens of top performers, and on this video he shows you how it's done! He provides specific ideas and examples for lead lines, plus how to construct a solo based on a song's melody and how to move freely around the neck. You'll also learn special accompaniment techniques -- slides, bends, vibrato and much more.
Artie is joined by singer/songwriter Diane Zeigler, whose compelling songs and unique chording provide perfect material for soloing on lead acoustic guitar. Each of her original tunes represents a different style, so you'll learn lyrical accompaniment as well as funky blues riffs and country-style licks. Highly recommended.
Songs: "Road He's Walking On," "Cog In The Wheel," "Rock Of Ages." |
