🎸 Fingerstyle CLINIC with Alberto Lombardi @ Backroom - BERKELEY | Nov 12 ✅
Workshop on arrangement & lead improvisation, on the day after his concert.
✨ Lombardi has toured with Tommy Emmanuel, taught at his international guitar camps, released lessons with Stefan Grossman Guitar Workshop and has been called “Italian Fingerstyle Master” by Acoustic Guitar Magazine.
✅ All levels welcomed!
The fascinating Fingerstyle guitar technique combines accompaniment and melody at the same time and allows complex, independent arrangements of popular songs.
Alberto will dissect some his arrangements like Yesterday, Isn’t She Lovely or Volare and will guide you to make your own, finding your unique voice on the instrument.
🎸 Fingerstyle arrangement :
• How to find the right key
• Choose the bass comping
• Dressing the melody, make it speak
• Enhancing the harmony, chord colors
• Harmonics, natural artificial, cascade
• Percussions and rhythm (thumb, hand, body)
• Licks
The second part of the masterclass will be on guitar soloing and improvisation, a big part of Alberto’s background as a session player and electric guitarist.
He has developed a unique approach to fretboard knowledge, that combines all diatonic scales in a unified 5 shapes only system
This simplifies improvisation greatly, freeing creativity from not knowing where the notes are, or knowing too many scale shapes and getting lost.
🎸 Guitar Soloing
• Own pentatonics all over the neck
• Easily transpose them in all keys
• Unlock major scales with the same system
• The secret to play modes easily
• Same system for all 3 scale types!!
