CARCASSTS INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE GUITAR. 6Character and Value of the Notes and Rests.

There are seven forms of Notes, each having a different

i ilue. By the value of a note, is understood, the duration of

lound which it represents ; tills duration is determined by the

'orm of the note itseif. Each of these notes has a Rest or

i.lence, whbh corresponds with it in value or duration.

6 CaRCASSI'S instructions for the GUITAR

Of Time.

Time is die division of any piece of Music into parts of equal

duration. There arc three principal measures;the measure of

four beats of three beats, and of two beats in a bar;

all the

others are derived from these three, and are called Compound

Measures.

The Measure, or Time, is marked at the commencement of

every piece of Music by signs or by numbers, indicating the

subdivisions of the measure. The Staff is divided by vertical

mes into separate parts, called Bars of measure.

Examples of different measures, the manner in which they

are marked at tb» ueginning of each piece of music, and the

method of beating time.

De la Mesure.

La Mesure e'est le partage en portions d'urje egalf ~tuee a«

tout morceau de musique.

II y a trois mesures principales ; la mesure a quane tern*, l»

mesure a trois tems, et la mesure a deux terns ; toutes les autrei

sont derivees de ces trois premieres, et se nomment mesures

composees.

La mesure se marque au commencement de chaque morceau.

par des signes, ou par des chiffres qui indiquent de combien ds

tems elle est composee. Les mesures se separent par des barres

verticales, appellees barres de mesure.

Of the Triplet.

The Triplet is a group of three notes, over

vliijh the figure 3 is placed ; these three notes

ire jilayed in the time of two of the same denom-

the binding of the unaccented part of

a measure with the accented part of

the measure following, so that it ah

forms one note.

INotes Synuopees. On entend pai

Of the Sharp, Flat and Natural. ^

The Sharp (#) is a sign which raises a note a semitone.

The Flat (b_) lowers it a semitone ; and the Natural (^) restores

b note, altered by a sharp or flat, to its original sound.

A sharp or fiat placed before a note, is called an Accidental,

and acts only in the bar in which it occurs.

When these signs are placed at the commencement of a piece

of music, namely, at the Clef, to point out its tone^all the notes

which are on the same line or space, on whioh these signs- are

placed, are affected by them.

There are as many sharps and flats as there are notes ; the

sharps are placed, beginning with F, by fifths ascending and by

fourths descending.

The flats are placed, beginning with B, by fourths ascending

«ud by fifths descending.

The modes, are the chaisocer of the Key; they are of two

ta»A , the Major mode, wnose third is major, or composed of

.wo full tones, and the Minor mode, whose third is minor, or

composed of a tone and a semitone.

Le mode est la caractere du ton ; il y en a deux especes ; kMode majeur dont la tierce est majeure, c'est=a-dire compose*

de deux tons pleins ; et le Mode mineur dont la tierce en

Tierce Minear. U ^Of the Scales «r Gamits.

There are two kinds of Scales, the Diatonic and the Chro-

itatic. The Scale is Diatonic when the five whole tones and

two semitones which compose it, succeed each other regularly

Bud in the natural order, whether ascending or descending. It

is Chromatic when the five whole tones of the Diatonic Scale

»re divided into semitones, so as to form twelve of these in the

compass of the octave.

In the Diatonic Scale, the two semitones are found between

the third and fourth, and the seventh and eighth degrees, in the

major mode ; and between the second and third, and the

seventh and eighth, in the minor.

Scale of C Major, with the tones and semitones which

compose it.

This scale may serve as a model for all the other major

scales.

Des Gammes.

II y a deux sortes de Gammes ; ia Diatonique et la Chrcina-

tique. La gamme est diatonique lorsque les cinq tons et les

deux demi-tons qui la composent s'enchainent regulieremenl,

tant en montant qu'en descendant, dans l'ordre naturel. Elle

est chromatique lorsque les cinq tons de la gamme diatonique

sont divises en demi-tons ce qui en formera douze dans Petenduf

Dans la gamme diatonique, les deux demi-tons, se trouven-

du 3e. au 4e. degre, et du 7e. au 8e. dans les tons majeurs ; «

h-h- 321 iTo shorten the study of the foregoing tables, and to know in

which key a piece of music is, it is necessary to know that

when there are no flats or sharps at the Clef, it is in C major or

A minor ; with the #, the major key is one semitone above the

last sharp placed at the Clef; and the minor key two semitones

below it ; with the b_, the major key is five semitones below

the last b_ in the signature, and the minor key four semitones

above.

To know whether we are in the principal key of the major

mode, or in its relative minor, it is necessary to examine whether

the fifth of the major key is accidentally altered by a sharp or

natural ; if not, we are in the principal major key ; if it is

altered, we are in the relative minor.

Of Abbreviations.

To abbreviate is to represent several notes by a single one,

OARCASSI'S INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE GUITAR II

Being thug seated, the Guitar is placed transversely on the

!sft thigh, as seen in the drawing.

This position is preferable to all others, because it offers three

points of support to the instrument, and balances it so as not to

require the support of the hands.

The Left Hand.

The left hand should lightly press the Neck between the

thumb and the fore finger ; the end of the thumb should rest

on the side next to the thick string, between the 1st and

2nd frets, and the large joint of the fore finger between the

Nut, the end of the finger board, and the 1st fret, on the side

next to the small string.

The arm should hang naturally, with the elbow separated

from the body, taking care to hold the fore arm and wrist

curved ; the fingers should be separated, and held as hammers

ready to strike thn strings between the four first frets.

The fingers in this position will naturally fall upon the three

first strings ; when they are required to reach the other three

xtrings, the wrist should be still more curved, and the thumb

put more under the neck. The thumb is also used sometimes

to press on the 6th string for particular notes ; when to be tnus

used, the word thumb will be placed under the notes.

The Right Hand.

The right fore arm should rest on the edge, formed by the

side and the sound board, in the direction of the Bridge ; the

little finger should be extended and rest lightly on the sound

board, near the first string, and a little distant from the bridge.

The thumb should be extended and placed on one of the cov-

ered strings, the three other fingers a little curved to be held

over the gut strings. Moving the hand towards the Rosette,

the tone of the Guitar will be much softened.

manner of Touching the Strings.

The strings are made to vibrate with the Thumb, 1st, 2d,

ind 3d fingers. The 6th, 5th, and 4th strings, on which are

played most frequently, what are called bass notes, are played

with the thumb ; the three other strings are played in the

Gamuts and phrases of melody with the 1st and 2d fingers

alternately, changing the finger at each note ; the 3d finger

'"> used oniy in Chords and Arpeggios of 4, 5 and 6 notes.

To obtain a full and mellow tone, it is necessary to apply

some force with the end of the finger, avoiding to touch the

strings with the nails, the fingers meet the strings obliquely, so

as to cause them to vibrate across the finger board.

The thumb of the right hand, in striking the thick strings,

Rtiould always slide to, and rest upon the string next to the one

made to vibrate, and should not be removed but to strike the

next note ; except in cases where the string on which it has

Hided should be made to vibrate by another finger immediately

kfter, when the thumb ought to strike the string without touch-

ing anv ither

One fois bien assis de cette maniere, on pose la Guitare trans*

veiScucOieiii am in cuissc gauche, comme le demontre la planch*

precedente ; cette position est preferable a toute autre parce-

qu'elle offre trois points d'appui a l'instrument, qui se trouve <n

equilibre sans oue les mains soient obligees de le retenir.

Main Ganche.

La main gauche doit presser legerement le manche entrc le

pouce et l'index, l'extremite dn pouce doit poser du cote dea

grosses cordes entre la Ire et la 2me touche, et la grande pha-

lange de l'index entre le sillet et la Ire touche du cote de la

chanterelle. On doit laisser tomber naturellement la partie

superieure du bras, ecarter le coude du corps en ayant soin de

tenir l'avant bras et le poignet un peu arrondis. Les doigt«

doivent se tenir ecartes, et en forme de marteaux au dessus des

cordes, prets a se poser sur les quatre premieres touches ; les

doigts, dans cette position, tombent naturellement sur les trois

premieres core'es ; lorsqu'ils doivent atteindre les trois dernieres,

il est necessaire d'arrondir davantage le poignet, et de placer le

pouce. plus au dessous du manche.

On se sert aussi quelquefois du pouce de cette main, poui

doigter quelques notes a la 6me corde, du cote oppose aux autres

doigts. Les notes qui doivent etre doigtees ainsi sont indiqueea

par le mot pouce, que l'on place au dessous des notes memo

Main Droitc.

L'avant bras droit doit s'appuyer sur le bord lo le pai

l'eclisse et la table d'harmonie, dans la direction du c evalet.

Le petit doigt doit un peu s'ecarter, et se poser legerement sin

la table d'harmonie pres de la chanterelle a peu de distance du

chevalet. Le pouce se tiendra allonge et en dehors des autres

doigts, et posera sur une des cordes filees ; les trois autres

doigts, un peu recourbes, se tiendront au dessus des trois cordes

de boyau. Lorsqu'on vein, adoucir le son de la Guitare, on

porte la main vers la Rosette.

Maniere de Pineer les Cordes.

On se sert de quatre doigts pour pineer les coides de Ta Gui-

tare ; ce sont : le pouce, l'index, le medium et 1 annulaire.

Les 6me, 5me et 4me Cordes, sur lesquelles, s'executent le plus

souvent les notes appelees basses, se pincent du pouce ; les 3

autres cordes se pincent, dans les Gammes et les phrases d

melodie, avec l'index et le medium alternativement en change-

ant de doigt a chaque note.

Le doigt annulaire ne pince que dans les accords et arpege*

composes d * 4, 5 et 6 notes.

Pour obtenir un son plein et moelleux, il faut pmcei un peu

fort, mais sans roideur avec l'extremite des doigts en evitant la

contact des ongles contre les cordes, qui doivent etre pincees

un peu en biais. Le pouce de la main droite en attaquant les

grosses cordes, doit toujours glisser sur la corde a cote de ce.le

qu'il vient de pineer, et ne doit se relever que pour pineer uni.

In some cases it is necessary to play on the 3d and 2d strings

with the thumb, and on the 4th and 5th strings with tne 1st

and 2d fingers. This is the case in chords, arpeggios, &c, andeven in cantabile phrases ; the notes to be played with the

thumb, are written with a double tail if to be played alone, and•with the tail turned down, if double.

Of Tuning the Guitar.

An A tuning Fork is used in tuning the Guitar, to which the6th string, A, is tuned; then press the finger on the samestring at the 5th fret of the finger board, which will then giveD

;to which the 4th string is to be tuned in unison. The

finger is then to be placed upon the 5th fret of the 4th string,

vrhich will give G, to which the 3d string is to be tuned in

unison;then place the finger upon the 4th fret of the 3d string,

which will give B, to which the 2d string is to be tuned in

unison;place the finger on the 5th fret of the 2d string, which

will give E, to which the 1st string is to be tuned in unison.The 6th string, E, is then to be tuned to the 1st E string, but»t the distance of two octaves lower.

The Positions.

There are as many positions as there are frets on the Fingerooard. It is the 1st finger that determines the position in whichthe hand is ; thus, when the 1st finger is placed on the 1st fret,

the hand is in the 1st position, and so on with the other posi-

tions.

The figures placed over the notes indicate the fingers of the

left hand, and also the frets on which they are to be placed.

The open strings are indicated by 0, the 1st finger and1st fret by 1, the 2d finger and 2d fret by 2, the 3d finger

CARCASSI'S INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE GUITAR. 15

Of the Chords.

1 he union of two or more notes played simultaneously is

ja. ed a chord.

If the chord to be played is composed of three notes, no mat-

ter on which strings, they are to be played with the thumb, Is

and 2d fingers ; if composed of four notes, the 3d finger must be

added ; if of five or six notes, the thumb must play the two or

three lowest notes by sliding from one string to the other, and

the fingers take the three other strings.

That all the notes of a chord may sound well, it is necessary

that the fingers of the left hand should be curved to act as ham-

mers, be pressed on the strings near the frets, and without af-

fecting the vibration of the other strings ; the fingers of the

right hand should be placed against the strings intended to be

struck, and not to be moved but to put the strings in motion.

Chords are always divided, or played in Arpeggios ; thus

:

the notes are played one after the other, from the lowest to the

highest, but sufficiently quick to produce the effect of their

being struck together.

Des Accords.

La reunion de plusieurs notes que l'on fait entendre simui

tanement s'appelle accord.

Si l'accord qu'on veut executer est compose de trois notes

quelles que soient les cordes sur lesquelles il s'execute, on le

pince avec le pouce, l'index et le medium ; s'il est de quatre

notes, on y ajoute l'annulaire, et s'il est de cinq ou six notes le

pouce pince en glissant les deux ou trois notes basses, et les

autres doigts pincent les trois autres cordes.

Pour que toutes les notes d'un accord resonnent bien, il faut

que les doigts de la main gauche, courbes en forme de marteaux,

pressent les cordes pres des touches et qu'ils n'-empechent pas .a

vibration des autres cordes;puis on placera les doigts de la main

droite centre les cordes destinees a etre pinc.ees, et on ne le?

relevera que pour mettre ces cordes en osciUation.

Les accords se font toujours un peu brises ou arpeges ; e'est-

a-dire en pingant les notes les unes apres les autres, mais avec

assez de vitesse pour qu'elles produisent le meme effet que »'

elles etaient pincees en meme terns.

In slow movements the chords are played, or arpeggioed

slowly, in character with the movement, which is often indicated

by this signJ,and which is placed before the chord. In quick

movements, which are to be played with energy, and require

much sound from the Guitar, the same sign is used to indicate

that the thumb must be slid rapidly and with force across the

strings which form the chord.

The Barrer.

The Barrer is made by pressing the 1st finger on two or more

strings, on the same fret.

There are two Barrers, the Great and the Small.

In the small Barrer the first finger stops but two or three

strings.

In the great Barrer, the first finger stops the whole of the

»ix strings.

To do the great barrer with ease, it is necessary to raise the

» irt, and to place the thumb entirely behind the Neck.

Dans les movements lents, les accords s'arnegent plus lenie-

ment que de coutume, souvent on les indique par ce signeJ

,qu*

l'on place a cote de l'accord. Dans les movements vifs et pro-

nonces, et qui exigent beaucoup de son de la Guitare, ce memesigne place a cote d'un accord, indique qu'il faut 1' executer en

laissant glisser rapidement, et avec force, le pouce sur toutes lei

cordes.

Da Barre.

Hi UAROASSI'S INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE GUITAR.

Of Arpeggios.

An Arpeggio is a number of notes played successively in

uniform order, and which, when united, form chords.

Arpeggios are used on the Guitar beca.ise they produce an

agreeable effect on the instrument, and as studies, they give

strength and agility to the fingers of the right hand. To execute

the Arpeggio well, before making the strings vibrate the fingers

of the left hand should be placed at once on the notes forming

the chord on which the arpeggio is to be played ; and when the

last note of the arpeggio is struck, the fingers should be raised

to pass to the next chord. This rule is indispensable ; if the

fingers were to quit the notes as soon as they are struck, the

vibration of the entire chord would be obstructed; of which,

each note is an essential part. The fingers of the right handshould not touch the strings, but to make them vibrate ; with

exception of the thumb, as described page 1 1.

ARPEGGIOS WITH THREE AND FOUR FINGERS.

These Arpeggios are given for the purpose of exercising

the right hand, and to establish general rules, which will serve

to show the fingering of that hand in all similar passages.

Each Arpeggio ought to be repeated several times in succes-

sion, ana as soon as the pupil is able to execute several with«ase. he may undertake the study of the eight Arpeggios at page

19, without however abandoning the study of these.

The chords written at the top, are those from which the 22lollowing Arpeggios are derived.

Des Arpeges on Batteries.

On appelle arpeges ou batteries, un nombre de note- pincer

successivement dans un ordre uniforme, et qui reunieg, formentdes accords. Sur la Guitare les arpeges sont ties usites parce-

qu'ils produisent un effet agreable et particulier a l'instrument,

comme etude, ils donnent de la force et de l'agilite aux doisti

de la main droite.

Pour bien executer les arpeges, il faut avant de pincer let

cordes, que les doigts de la main gauche soient poses simultane-

ment sur les notes formant 1 'accord sur lequel on arpege ; et

lorsque la derniere note de l'arpege a ete frappe, on leve jfes

doigts pour passer a un autre accord.

Cette regie est de rigueur ; si les doigts quittaient les notes

au fur et a mesure qu'on les pince, on empecherait la resonnancc

complete de l'accord dont chaque note isolee forme line partit

essentielle.

Les doigts de la mam droite ne doivent toucher les cordes

que pour les mettre en vibration, a l'exception du pouce ; voyei

la page 11.

ARPEGES A TROIS ET A QUATKE DOIGTS

Ces arpeges sont ecrits dans le but d'exercer la main druite

et d'etablir les regies generates qui serviront a faire distingue

le doigter de cette main dans tous les passages analogues.

Chacun de ces arpeges doit etre repete plusieurs fois de suite

Aussitot l'eleve commencera a en executer plusieurs courammentil pourra entreprendre l'etude des huit arpeges de la page 19

Pour faciliter I 'etude de ces huit arpeges, et le mecanisme de

The Guitar may be played m all keys, but, like all other

instruments, it has some keys more favorable to it than others.

Those which are most suitable, are C, major ; G, major ; D,

major and minor ; A, major and minor ; E, major and minor

:

and F, major. The other keys are difficult, because they re-

quire too often, the use of the Barren I have therefore placed

in the first part of this work, the Gamuts, Cadences and Exer-

cises only in those keys most in use.

As I think it important, however, to be acquainted with ail

the keys, and that they should be practiced, I have placed ip

the second part of this method all that I have thought necessary

!oi this purpose.

La Guitare peut jouer dans tons les tons, mais comme torn

les instruments, elle a ses tons favoris. Ceux qui ltd convien-

nent le mieux, sont : Ut majeur, Sol majeur, Re majeur e.

mineur, La majeur et mineur, Mi majeur et mineur, et Fa na-

jenr,

Les autres sont difficiles parcequ'ils necessitent l'empioi trop

fiequent du Barre ; aussi je n'ai note dans la Ire partie de ce

ouvrage, que les Gammes, Cadences, Exercices et morceaui

progressifs dans les tons les plus usites

Cependant comme je pense qu'il est important de spnnaitre

tous les tons et de s'y exeicer, j'ai place dans la 2me partie d«

cette Methode tout ce que j'ai cru necessaire pour arriver a c«

'^sultat.

H2 CABCASSI'S INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE SLITAK.

Gamuts, Cadences, Exercises and Preludes.

To facilitate the execution of the Gamuts, it is necessary

i sat the fingers of the left hand should he held sufficiently sep-

f ;ated, and so placed, that they may he put on, and taken off

tie strings, without moving the hand.

A finger which is placed on a note, should not be moved butto finger the note following, unless this note should be an openstring.

In Gamuts ascending, when passing from one note to another,

the finger must not be raised too quickly from the string, lest it

vibrate if left open too soon.

In the following Preludes and Little Pieces, care must beaken to sustain the notes, as well in the Bass, as in the otherparts ; this caution is necessary, in order to obtain a full andharmonious style.

Gammes, Cadences, Exercises ct Preludes.

Pour faciliter l'execution des Gammes, il faut que les doigude la mam gauche se tiennent assez ecartes, et places de manierea pouvorr les poser et les lever sur les cordes, sans deranger hmain.

II ne faut jamais lever ledoigt place sur nne note, qu'en doig-tant la note suivante, a. moins que cette note ne se fasse a rie.

Dans les gammes montantes, .'orsqu'on passe d'une corde iune autre, il ne faut pas retirer tmp vivement le doigt de la cordeque 1'on quitte, afin d'eviter la vifcrat^n de cette corde a videDans les Preludes et les peats morceaux suivants on aura

soin de bien observer la tenue des iotes, tant a la basse qu'aiaautres parties

; cette condition est i. «essaire pour obtenir un jeuplein et harmonieux.

SECOND PART.SECONDE PARTIE.

Of the Slur.

Two or more Notes pVj>yed successively, of which only the

first is made to vibrate by (he right hand, and the others by the

mere pressure of the fing' rs of the left hand, are called slurred

notes.

Slurs are performed both in rising and in descending. To ex-

ecute slurs of two note?, in rising the lower note is to be played,

and the finger of the left hand descends like a hammer andwith a good deal of fo/ce upon the higher note, which mustsound from the mere impulse of this finger.

In descending, the higher note is played, and drawing the

finger which pressed it, a little to one side, so as to touch the

string a little, the lower note is made to sound. If the latter

note is not on an open string, it must be prepared before the

higher note is made to vibrate.

The nix is indicated by this sign ,. ^ placed over the

acres i"/j ;.ch are to be slurred.

&/.UES OF TWO NOTES RISINtt AND DESCENDING.

Play the E and place the first finger on F.Pioce lo Mi et appuyez le ler dotgt sur le Fa.

Des notes coulees et liees.

On appelle notes coulees deux ou plusieurs notes feites suecessivement, dont la premiere seulement est mise en vibratiotpar la main droite, et Ies autres par la settle pression des doigtsde la main gauche.

Les coules se font en montant et en descendant. Pour exe-cuter des coules de deux notes en montant, on pince la notegrave, et on laisse tomber le doigt de la main gauche, en formede marteau, et avec assez de force, sur la note aigfie, qui doitresonner par la seule impulsion de ce doigt.

En descendant on pince la note aigae, et en retirant le doiet

qui la comprimait, un peu de cote, de maniere a pincer un peula corde, on fait resonner la note grave. Si cette note ne se fai.pas a vide, il faut qu'elle soit preparee avant que la note aigi*soit mise en vibration.

The Slide is performed by one finger of the left hand, which

glides along the neck in passing over all the frets from the 1st

Small Notes or Appoggiatnra.

This name is given to a small note, which sometimes is of

half the value of the note which it precedes. In this case it is

the ong Appoggiatura. and when it has but a very short dura-

tion it is called the short Appoggiatura.

To distinguish the short from the long Appoggiatura, the

former is crossed at the end. The small notes are played the

Bame as slurs, giving an impulse to the small note with the

right hand, and making the principal note sound with the finger

of the left hand.

When a common note, preceded by a small note, is accompa-

nied by one or more parts, the small note must be played with

the accompanying parts, and the principal note be slurred imme-

diately.

Des petites notes on Appoggiatnres.

On donne ce nom a une petite note qui souvent prend bmoitie de la valeur de la note qu'elle precede. Dans ce cas,

c'est l'appoggiature longue, et quand elle n'a qu'une tris courts

duree, on l'appelle appoggiature breve.

Pour distinguer l'appoggiature breve de la longue, on l'ecril

par une croche coupee d'nne ligne transversale. Les petites

notes s'executent comme les coules en donnant l'impulsion de la

main droite a la petite note, et en faisant resonner la note princi-

pal avec le doigt de la main gauche. Lorsqu'une note or ];-

naire, precedee d'une petite note, est accompagnee d une 3i)

Of the Trill.

The TriD ia where a note alternates, for a longer or shorter

lime, pncorcing to its value, and very rapidly, with the note

which is a tone or half a tone above it, and which is termed

the auxiliary note. The Trill should generally begin and end

<*ith the principal note. Every Trill should have a termina-

tion ; this termination consists of the tone or semitone below,

followed by the principa' note. (See following Examples.)

On the Guitar the Trill is made in three ways:

1. By snapping the first note, and slurring the rest of the

Trill.

% By snapping the principal, and slurring the auxiliary

note.

3. By taking the two notes upon two different strings with

the left hand, and snapping them with two or three fingers.

Da Trille on Cadence.

Le Trille est une note qui selon sa valeur, alterne plj» 01

moins longtems, et tres vite, avec une autre note qui se trou

un ton, ou un demi-ton plus haut, et qu'on nomme note auxuiaire. Le trille doit generalement commencer par la note

principale, et finir avec elle. Chaque trille doit recevoir une ter-

minaison ; cette terminaison consiste dans un ton ou demi-tor

inferieur suivi de la note principale. (Voyez les exempleisuivans.)

Sur la Guitare on fait le trille de trois manieres

:

lo. En pingant la premiere note et en coulant le reste A(trille.

2o. En pingant la note principale et en coulant ia note anxiliaire.

3o. En preparant les deux notes sur deux cordes diffe'rentei

GAROABSI'S INSTRUCTIONS FOE THE uulTAR. 57

Of Double Notes.

On the Guitar there are passages of double notes ir thirds,

lixths, octaves, and tenths ; to facilitate their execution, it is

necessary to slide the fingers as much as possible, in passing

from one fret to another.

In these first exercises the fingers which are to slide are

marked by small lines placed between the numbers, to indicate

tbe fingering of the left hand.

Gamut in Thirds.

Des Doubles Notes.

Sur la Guitare, on fait des passages de doubles notes en

tierces, sixtes, octaves et dixiemes;pour en faciliter l'execu-

tion, il faut, autant que possible glisser les doigts en passant

d'une case a l'autre.

Dans ces premiers exercices, les doigts qui doivent glissei

sont marques par de petits traits d'union entre les chifFres wiindiquer le doigte de la main gauche.

CARCASSI'S INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE G ,1TAR. 61

£n passages of thirds, sixths, and tenths, sometimes we find

ai accompanying part which rests upon a single continuous

iiote, and which is put in to produce an effect peculiar to the

guitar. This part should always be executed upon an open

string, even if the other parts are higher ; in which case they

•liould be taken upon strings below the open string.

On trouve quelquefois, avec des passages en tierces, sixtei

et dixiemes, une autre partie continue d'accompagnement qui

devient superieure ou intermediate pour produire des effets par

ticuliers a la Guitare. Cette partie doit toujours etre executee

sur une corde a vide quand meme les autres parties seraient plus

aigiies;dans ce dernier cas, on les doigte sur les cordes imme-

diatement inferieures a la corde a vide.

72 OARCASSI'S INSTRUCTIONS FOR T H A GUITAR

Harmonics.

Harmonics are produced by placing a finger of the left hand

across all the strings of the Guitar at certa'n divisions of the

finger board.

The finger must press lightly, yet with sufficient force to

prevent the string from vibrating as if open. As soon as the

string has been struck with sufficient force near to the bridge,

the finger must be taken off.

Harmonics sound an octave higher than what they are

marked. They are produced at the 12th, 7th, 5th, 4th and 3d

fret, as the following table shows.

Sons Harmoniques.

On produit les sons harmoniques en posant un doigt e li

main gauche sur toutes les cordes de la Guitare a de cei jinesdivisions seulement. II faut que le doigt pose legerement maijavec assez de force pour empecher a corde de resonner a vide,et on leve ce doigt aussitot apses avoir pince la corde un peufort pres du Chevalet.

Les sons harmoniques rendent une octave au dessus ce ce

qu'ils sont marques. lis se font a la 12me, 7me, 5me. 4me e<

All the notes within the compass of the Guitar may be

played harmonically.

To do this the note which is to be played harmonically is

fingered in the same manner as an ordinary note ; then the

point of the forefinger of the right hand is placed at the 12th

fret distant from the note which before has been fingered by the

left hand, the thumb is then removed from the forefinger, which

presses lightly on the string, and strikes this string which will

produce a harmonic sound.

On peut aussi executer en sons harmoniques toutes les notes

du Diapason de la Guitare.

Pour y parvenir, on doigte avec la main gauche la note qu'on

veut rendre harmcnique, comme si l'on devait executer une

note ordinaire, puis l'on pose le bout de l'index de la main

droite a la 12me touche correspondante de la note doigtee

par la main gauche, en ecartant le pouce de l'index qui pose

legerement sur la corde, on pincera cette corde qui resonnera

harmoniquement.

And thine eye its brightness too

Though thy step may lack its fleetness,

And thy hair its sunny hue:

Still to me wilt thou be dearer

Than all the world shall own;

I have loved thee for thy beauty,

But not for that alone

:

I have watched thy heart, dear Mary,

And its goodness was the wile

That has made thee mine forever,

! the thing you love may die, Love not ! love not! the thing you love may changoMay perish from the gay and gladsome earth, The rosy lip may ceaee to smile on you,

The silent stars, the blue and smiling sky, The kindly beaming eye grow cold and stiange,

Beams on its grave, as onoe upon its birth.— Love not ! The heart still warmly beat, yet not be true.—Love uoi

4Love not! love not! Oh warning vainly said

In present hours, as in years gone by

:

Love flings a hallo round the dear one's head,

Faultless, immortal, till they change or die.—Love not'

SECOND TERSE.

Bring forth the cold corpse, slowly slowly bear him,

Hide his pale features with the sable pall

;

Chide not the sad one wildly weeping near him,

Wilowed and childless, she has lost her all.

THIRD VERSE.

Why pause the mourners ? who forbids our weeping,

Who the dark pomp of sorrow has delayed ?

" Set down the bier, he is not dead, but sleeping

;

Young man arise," He spake and was obeyed.

FOURTH VERSE.

Change then, oh sad one ! grief to exultation,

Worship and fall before Messiah's knee

;

Strong was his arm, the bringer of salvation,

Strong was the word of God to succour thee.

You must lay poor Lilly Bale.

Where the wild flowers grow,

And the stream ripples forth thro' the vale.
