Daniele Magli Classical Guitar: novembre 2018

Seeing and listening to Andres Segovia in concert
was a wonderful experience for me.

as usual nothing is comparable to listening to the recordings
of Segovia and its videos from concerts

I have been studying Segovia's technique for years

and this has helped me to develop my way of playing classical guitar.

Andres Segovia eight style essential elements :

1 ) A horizontal aproach to fingering

the name is appropriate because what result is a tendency toward movement
up and down to use higher position

2) Segovia Vibrato

tonal oscillation above and below a mean pitch that imparts vitality

3) Segovia Rubato

this term is ( as always in music ) an italian words and in music is
when some notes robbing time from the rhythmic pulse .

there are two ways to play Rubato :

as you can read at my free guitar website at the page "Segovia Style" :

4 ) Segovia Glissando ( slide from one note to another )

but while " Portamento " make no sound

with Glissando you make hear every single notes

5) Slurs

Segovia use slurs ( in italian " Legato " )

use hammer on and pull off but also
as " legato di suono "

( sorry there are many italians words
in classical music , not only Allegro and Andante , because
Italian Language was consider the best around 1600 and 1700
seventeenth century )

6 ) a full round sound with plenty of variety

the famous Segovia sound
with the use of fingernails
the use of rest stroke and free stroke

7 ) fantastic Segovia rolled chords

as you can read at my website :

Right hand technique by Daniele Magli

8 ) individual interpretations

Now I want to share with you the best videos
I found on YouTube - some are taken from my page on YouTube:

This is a wonderful opportunity to see
the fantastic technique of Segovia on the classical guitar
that he played as the greatest master in history.

I hope you enjoy
