Upon its first publication in 1995, Pumping Nylon became an instant
classic and a must-have technique handbook for all classical
guitarists---and many guitarists of other styles as well. This complete
edition includes additional early intermediate through advanced
repertoire. Scott Tennant's encouraging style, sense of humor, and
unique approach to technical training helped Pumping Nylon gain
countless devotees throughout the world. At the heart of Pumping Nylon
is the famous Daily Warm-Up Routine, which includes 11 clever, helpful
exercises to get both hands in shape and ready to play while also
improving your technical skills. These invaluable technique lessons are
supplemented by Giuliani's 120 Right-Hand Studies, Tarrega arpeggio
studies, and music examples from Bach, Turina, and Rodrigo. In addition,
original compositions by guitar luminaries Brian Head and Andrew York
reinforce the material while also providing concert-worthy repertoire.
This second edition of Pumping Nylon Complete incorporates even more
great material with new pieces by Evan Hirschelman, Guiliani's Left Hand
Studies, Op. 1, and new technical exercises in tremolo and balancing
chord voicings. The music engravings have been improved for easier
readability, and a brand-new correlating video, available to download or
stream, has been included.
If Pumping Nylon Complete is already in your library, it's time to
upgrade to this second edition, which is even better than the original.
If you are just now discovering Scott Tennant's masterpiece, this is a
great opportunity to jump on board and start enjoying this classic. Your
practice routine and technical prowess will improve, and you'll have fun
as you learn.
