Pro tip: please watch the short video version of this post that I link to www.guitarsuccess4u.com/CapoReality. It will give you a much clearer grasp of what I'm sharing here.Abbreviated transcript and table included below…If you play the guitar, you probably use a capo sometimes. But is your capo holding you hostage? Do you sometimes get confused about which key you're actually in when you use it? No more!We as guitarists make use of a variety of tools, but perhaps one of the most common is the capotasto, better known as the capo. The capo gets its name from a phrase that means “head tie,” which implies that it's being tied to the guitar near the headstock.But when we put a capo on our guitar, what is happening, exactly? We're shortening the length of the strings. This can allow us to play in some keys with open chord shapes to access actual chords that would normally all be bar chords. Allow me to demonstrate (see the video for a clearer picture of this.) The key of Ab Major, for example, has zero open chords, so they all need to have 100% fretted notes. The chords are: Ab Major, Bb minor, C minor, Db Major, Eb Major, F minor, G diminished, and we can come back around to Ab Major.In the video, I play all of those chords again, but with my capo on fret 1. The chords are the same, but many of them are much easier to play, because I use the shapes: G Major, A minor, B minor, C Major, D Major, E minor, F sharp diminished, and ending on G Major.But let's not confuse shapes with chords.Because unless we're only collaborating with a drummer or a percussionist, there are harmonic consequences to everything we do with the capo. Do you believe it?If you're collaborating with a piano player, a synth player, a bass player, another guitar player, a vocalist, someone who plays strings or woodwinds, or any type of harmonic or melodic instrument or voice, they're going to be playing or singing in a specific key.And if you are the guitarist who's leading that band, it's super important to know which key you're all in.Here are some helpful tips so you can be sure of what's going on. Memorize marker pointsFirst, memorize the bottom 3 strings, strings 6, 5 and 4. I walk you through these markers in the video, but you're welcome to reference the diagram I'm including with this article.There's more, but this can give us plenty to work with here.Which key are we in?Our first approach is to place the capo and discover which keys we end up playing in when we play shapes.Let's say I place the capo on the 3rd fret. If I strum shapes around the tonal center of E, with the open 6th string for the low root, which key am I in? G. If I strum A shapes, which key am I in? C. If I strum D shapes, which key am I in? F.Why? Because the “open” notes at our new “nut” with the capo are G, C, and F. Right? Did you know all of those? This works best with your guitar and capo in hand.Which key do we want to play in?Let's try the opposite approach with placing the capo for keys we want to play in.Now, let's say I want to play in Eb Major with a piano player, by leveraging the capo. For a moment, let's temporarily call that the key of D#. It's a theoretical key, I know, but go with me. If I place the capo on fret 1 and play a D shape, it sounds a D#, better known as Eb. That open 4th string is our low root on Eb.If you want to think in the key of D, this can work for you, but remember, you're accountable for actually playing chords in the keys the capo has given you access to. So if the capo is on fret 1, and we play D, G and A shapes, we've actually achieved Eb, Ab and Bb chords. Right?Starting with chords that have open roots like E, A, and D can be pretty attainable, because the capo at the new “nut” easily tells us what those notes are, without fretting above it.But what about chords like G and C that do have a fretted root? Don't worry, I got you.Play an open G chord for a moment. That root on the 3rd fret is a minor 3rd above the nut.Let's just make a new “nut” with the capo! Let's say we want to play in the key of B. Well, a moment ago, we said that B on the 6th string is on fret 7. So, let's fret the G shape that's got that 7th fret B as the root, and place our capo down a minor 3rd – a distance of 3 frets, on the 4th fret. With the capo on the 4th fret, using G shapes, we've accessed the key of B.One more. Play an open C chord, the root for which is on the 3rd fret of the 5th string. It's a minor 3rd above the open A note at the nut. Let's make a new “nut” with our capo for the key of F. Where is F on the 5th string? It's all the way up at fret 8, just above the 7th fret E we talked about a moment ago. So, we can start with a C shape with our root on the 8th fret for F, and go down 3 frets to the 5th fret and place the capo there. We can now play C shapes, with capo 5, in the key of F.This process works for any Major key, minor key, or even modes, but we have to know the real key we're in, and at least some of the chords the capo is helping us play. Our charts, especially the ones we print up for the band, have to reflect this reality. Otherwise, we'll have an alternate reality that leads to confusion, or at the very least, a comedy of errors.I hope this was helpful, and I look forward to next time!Thanks for reading Guitar Serious Fun!

如果你曾在观看电影《春娇救志明》时为杨千嬅演唱的《余春娇》伤怀感慨,也曾一时惊讶于林奕匡《停止繁殖》不寻常规的旋律,那么这些作品背后的功臣——作曲家林家谦 2019 年以唱作人身份出道的林家谦,早在 2014 年就开始从事音乐行业的幕后工作——他曾为陈奕迅、容祖儿等粤语流行前辈作曲,也参与了 Gin Lee、邓小巧等正当活跃的乐坛中坚力量的专辑,六年间积累了超过 90 首作品,丰沛创作能量有目共睹。擅长中慢板抒情歌的他,既能为容祖儿谱写极具天后气度的大势流行乐《心之科学》,也能为曾沛慈合作写出轻诉腼腆少女情怀的《水深火热》。在他的众多作品中值得一提的是,《红线》里马天佑与卢巧音一高一低、双线并行的副歌旋律——这种流行乐里较为罕见的复调处理令人印象深刻。 务实又大胆的林家谦,2017年开始因《一人之境》走到歌坛的舞台中央,五年时间过去2022年他就拿到了叱咤男歌手与创作人等多项大奖,如奔跑版闯荡歌坛的他是如何写自己唱的歌的呢?这次我们来聊一聊他。 嘉宾:劳劳 00:00 《特伦斯梦游仙境》 06:48 《独家村》 Live 09:06 从独家村认识后,180度态度转变 11:17 初识林家谦 14:26 林家谦出道的历程 18:58 《一人之境

Pianist Henrik Kilhamn explains this Chopin Nocturne in A flat major, where Chopin fuses the Nocturne style with a crazy waltz middle section. The initial melody is at first comfortable and reassuring, but after the wlatz section it returns in fortissimo and apassionato! Performance: 13:05

Walker Farrell Is part of the Make Noise crew. When he was about 17 Walker composed a piano piece that was based around a chord he had "discovered". This particular chord, when broken out and arpeggiated, had a feeling that was both longing and uplifting simultaneously, a never-ending cadence, an equal temperament Shepard scale. It turned out to be minor-flat-6, though the phrasing was as important as the content. In C it was spelled C, G, Gb, Eb from bottom to top. Two perfect fifths separated by a minor second. It's also notable as the core of the Rachmaninoff Prelude in c# minor, which was a favorite of Walker’s at that time. Repeated, transposed, or reiterated in successively higher octaves, it had, for him, a sense of endless reaching. (It could also be spelled as an Ab Major 7th chord, but he always felt the C as the root.) In this decade Walker has been musically more interested in structural grounding than in goal-oriented results. He makes music without specific results in mind, in two branches: one concerned with the creation of structures within which to improvise, and the other concerned with generative music (music that creates itself). "Green Fiber" is one of his proudest examples of the latter. It is realized on a modular synthesizer, and based on three ideas: 1. The notion that any given "state" of the system should follow from the previous state, and should lay the grounds for the next state. 2. The oxymoronic or perhaps redundant idea of processing an additive oscillator with a frequency-specific resonator; this leads to occasional periods of great intensity when particular frequencies are emphasized twice over. 3. The above-mentioned chord and the feelings it still inspires in him. The sense of "always ending and always beginning" seems appropriate for generative music that cannot have a larger structure imposed upon it. The piece is played without any input from the performer. In other words the system is the performer. The recording was made without being monitored by a human. On 6/2/17 Walker released a new EP of improvised computer music. Please check it out!
