Info

Verdery identifies three different ways to hit the instrument: the thumb “taps on the bridge,” the left hand finger “taps behind the bridge,” and the middle finger of the right hand “taps behind the bridge.” 10 Example 3.19 Tremolo on the wood of the guitar in A Sad Humoresque by Phyllis Tate. Measure 38. The final example comes from A Sad Humoresque by Phyillis Tate. In this example the performer performs a tremolo on the wood of the guitar with the nails. The nails will give this a brighter sound. 10 Benjamin Verdery, 11 Etudes (Québec: Les Éditions Doberman-Yppan, 2005), 7. 42
CHAPTER 3 PERCUSSIVE SOUNDS Composers during the last hundred years have often used the guitar as a percussive instrument by hitting the strings or the body of the guitar. I will discuss three basic types of percussive sounds in this chapter. The first is string percussion. This involves hitting the strings at various points to get different sounds. The strings can be struck on the fretboard to get the added sound, or a special quality can be achieved by hitting the strings without the string hitting the fretboard. The later is called the tambora effect and is discussed in section 3.2. The final percussive sound involves hitting the wood of the guitar, called body percussion, and this is discussed in section 3.3. 3.1 String Percussion Example 3.1 Right hand percussive sounds in movement 4, “Spirits,” from Shadows by William Albright.
