FOREU/ORD My objective in writing this collection ofstudies is to outline some chordal techniques thathave practical application in contemporary stylesof guitar playing, value in fingerboard explorationand the development of a sense of musical coher-ence.

I have chosen to do this through examplerather than a discussion of harmonic theory with aview that a lot is to be learned simply by producingthe sounds under our fingers and in our ears.

Many guitarists accumulate a large repertoireof "guitar chords" which, in themselves, arepleasant sounding and, perhaps, well suited torhythm playing and various accompaniments. But arepertoire of "isolated" chords may remain in theplayers mind as disconnected chunks of harmony,not easily applied to chord melody playing. Themain academic point of this book is the resolutionof this problem.

One improves his musical and instrumentaltechniques by accepting the challenge of more andmore difficult material. Therefore, the examples inthis book have been developed, not for theirsimplicity, but for their direct usefulness in con-temporary music thereby representing some of thefacets of advanced gtritar playing. ln view of this, Ibelieve the reader is embarking on an adventureboth musically and personally rewarding.

My thanks to Mike Anthony for his contr ibu-t ion of Example 38.

FINGERINGS While it is true that the same chord voicingscan often be played on two or three dift'erent setsof str ings, i t is seldom possible to do so withoutsome change of the fingering. ln evaluating thefeasibility of a change, first consider musicalqual i ty and mechanical ef f ic iency :

a. As a rule. the musical qual i ty can beetrhance d by choosrng a f ingering or a sctof str ings in which the greater str inglcrrgth is nraintained, thus permit t ing thestr ings to "sing" and sustain longer.

b, Mecl ianical c-f f ic iency is pr imari ly a mat-ter of ' er,oic l ing unnecessary or awkwardharrd or f ingr.r movements. However, indevelopinu a sense of mechanical ef f i_clcncy. t lo not also develop a tear ofradical jurltr-rs or large intcrvals on thef ingerboard. for these techniques arefrequcnt l l rcquired. For example, radi-cal intcrval jLrrrps may supply a nicecoutrast to srnooth scalc-wise l ine move_ment .

Str ing numbe rs inci icete the lower note of thechord and are in circ lcs under the staff . Fingeringnumbers are placed to thc lcf t of the notes. Thethumb is frequently usccl throughout the studiesand is indicated (T).

CHORD MELODY DEVICES

Examples I through 9 demonstrate some structural devices basic to contemporary styles of chord melodyplaying. As you become acquainted with these devices you will observe their practical application through thestudies forming the main body of this book. Take plenty of time working through these studies as the techniquesare highly concentrated. In order to better retain what you learn here, you should make a direct effort to putthese'devices' to pract ical use on a dai ly basis.

l l \R] ION\ ' : \ ER' l ' l ( , - \ | . -HOI i IZONl ' \ t ,

Basically there are two concepts of harmony:

(1) Its vertical structure which is nothing more than the stacking of notes into chords. Naturally, these areplayed simultaneously.

(2) Its horizontal movement which involves the way one chord progresses to another.

VERTICAL structures are usually expressed in one of two basic voicings:

Example 1, Close Block Voicings in which the notes are packed closely together.

Ex. I

These voicings can also be played on the inside strings (5th, 4th, 3rd and second strings).

Page 6: 57190489 Howard Roberts Chord Melody

Example 2. Open Voicings in which the notes are spread apart.

E x . 2

F m mflH HTffiGnal fl-HlA,"z 6n? w

Gm1

Closed voiced chords can be opened up as far as your reach will permit, simply by movilg one or morechordal tones up or down an octave.

Example 3' PARALLEL MorIoN, a chord progression in which each tone is moving the same numberof scale steps and in the same direction.

Ex. 3

HORIZONTAL movement. The melody lines formed by each of the chordal tones is the most importantsingle factor linking one chord to another. In four part harmony, for example, one is really dealing with fourseparate melody lines' It naturally follows that there would be as many Inkage possibilities as melodies: astudy of this question in its entire scope comes under the headings of voice leading, harmony and linearcounterpoint (see Shaping Forces o.f Music, Ernest Toch). The following example demonstrates some of theprimary melodic aspects of chord connections.

Through experimentation with parallel and contrary motion one can invent some passages of considerableinterest to both player and listener. Such passages are often quite useful as fingering exercises and for arrivineat a better understanding of the fingerboard in general.

Example 5. COUNTER LINES are usually treated as a melodic accompaniment to the main body of atune. They are also used as connecting lines from one chord to another and, on guitar, are frequently foundin the second voice from the top. When the main melody has little motion, the counter line can be moreactive. Example 5 shows the counter line (with stems up) on the 3rd string.

Example 7. BLOCK CHORDS. Here is a rudimentary, yct ef t 'ect ive way of producing melody andharmotry simultaneously. This is done by placing a ful l chord underneath each melody note. The chords canbe ei ther close or open voicings. You rnight experiment with picking techniques here: For example, al l dowlstrokes, or al ternatc down and up strokes, or plucking al l str ings simultaneously with f ingers. Note: The Gm7in bar 3 is being used as a substitute for Eb mai 9.

The block chord eff'ect is best achieved when thc chordal tones are made to move when the rnelocl-v 1ro\'! '\.atrd preferably in the same direction as the melody. Often tlie melody can be fingered casily without hlripgto change the chord form, but this tends to destroy the block chord effect; therefore it is more clesirrrlrlc tirchange the voicing or inversion with each new melody note. in order to create the eff-ect of al l l i r res nro\ lngat once.

Examples 34 and 35 have, in contrast to Examples 31,32 and 33, relatively rich harmonies. This i: d1.'to the addit ion of extensions. i .e. +5, +9, etc. You wi l l a lso observe that notes other than the roor rr :frequently used to form the bass line. These help to produce harmonic textures present in some of the mor:recent jazz forms. In this example, make a special effort to sustain as many of the chordal tones as possib,le.

With few exceptiorrs, it is possible to find acommon. garden variety chord voicing for theguitar (of the type found in many chord eucyclo-pedias) that can be fingered to include all pos-sible notes that may appear in the melody. I t isobvious that i f the melody note is placed too lowou thc staff, you will not have enough strings leftto form a satisfactory chord beneath it. There-fore. you will often find it both helpful andr-leccssilry to transpose the melody up an octave(this is cal lcd " jumping octaves") several t imesthroughout the course of a solo. With experic 'nceand f inesse. this car l be done without losir ,gnrelocl ie cont inlr i ty. l t is possiblc however to playa lon rcgister scale or melody (as low as the 4thstr ing blr t no lower) with some fragment of thechorcl btncath.
