Homz Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Homz' date=' I don't know too many (if any) symphony players that interpret by changing the notes. Classical music by it's very nature is expected to have all the notes that were written by the composer...the "interpretation" is in the feel and dynamics of the piece.[/quote'] Considering there was not even a standard tuning until just over a hundred years ago it's all a matter of interpretation. My greater point is to make it your own. I understand with your classical training that isn't easy to do. My wife has the same issue. She is a classically trained Pianist. It's like twisting arms just to get her to hang on a chord going into a bridge if it isn't in the sheet music. It's simply a matter of opinion. I would consider doing a cover copy note for note as nothing more or less then reading a book. It's not an issue of right or wrong. I think it's boring.

elessar820 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I used to use just tabs, but recently I've been using YouTube as well. I'll look up a tab and watch a few videos as well to see how other people play it and work at it from there. It's been working so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninety1vee Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 i put in a cd, and jam on it about a hundred times (usually get it at the 75th, and then nail it down), for solos i find live vids on youtube, and piece 'em together by watching the artist playing them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
