[G] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [F] My favorite is a beautiful piece, a Spanish piece, and _ _ it's anonymous so we don't know
who wrote it.
It's a very romantic piece.
I think we can do a lot of rubato with this piece.
_ It's not meant to be played straight like a metronome.
_ _ [C#] So _ first of all, let's talk about the form of it.
The form is we have an introduction, which [E] is, _ [D] _ _ [C] _
[B] _ [A] _ _ [G] _ [F#] _ _ [B] _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ that's the introduction, _ made up of octaves
_ and a descending arpeggio and a harmonic leading us into the melody.
_ _ _ _ [N] The form of this piece, so we have introduction, then we have the A section which repeats.
So we have AA, then we have the B section _ _ and back to the A, and then the C section
back to A.
So the form is _ introduction, AA, _ BACA.
So a lot of repeats to follow. _
_ _ _ So the only thing that's really important here is the melody _ _ and what you do with this
melody, the rubato or the push and pull that you use in the melody, the dynamics.
_ _ There's also other things that will help you play it better.
For example, there's [G] portamentos.
And if you look at the end of the first line, right after this G, there's a slanted line
going to a B.
That's a portamento.
_ [Em] _ _ _
[D#] And that means it's an expressive sigh, a portamento.
[G] _ _ [Em] _ _ [G] So we want to attach G to B, but _ release the pressure a little bit going from G to B. _
_ _ You don't want to hear all the notes.
That would be too much.
So release it _ _ and then put it back down on B.
_ _ _ _ It's really something _ that singers do all the time when they sing.
They use
