Solfeggio in C Minor (A.K.A Solfeggietto)
This is a song by CPE Bach. I transcribed it from the piano to guitar.I swear
I spent practically my whole life picking out every note precisely so please,
rate it highly. On another note, this song uses some advanced techniques,
most of which need no explaining. However, in the song you WILL need to learn
sweep-picking. If you don't know how to do that, then this may be a bit
advanced for you. If you find it to hard, set it aside for awhile. But, with
enough practice, you should be able to learn it somewhat decently.
Also note that there are many leaps across the fretboard. This makes the song
a bunch more difficult. The best way to tackle that, is to practice the 2
notes that are apart together without playing any surrounding notes. I find
this highly effective while practicing.
One last note: I don't have the guitar version available for download just
yet, but you can still play along to the original music piece. You can prob-
ably bye the cd at any music store. I transcribed it note for note, so it
should sound alright. Well, that just about wraps it up!
HAPPY PLAYING!!! :)
