(firmenpresse) - In her newly published book, Ariane Cap, a well renowned music educator and bassist, wanted to give the bass player an all-you-need-to-know of the topic, practice it in a systematic fashion and inspire creative use of these concepts right away.
Cap explains that she has seen many bassists struggle with incoherent music theory knowledge, that is disconnected from the bass or the music a bassist typically plays: €œIt turned into something to think about in addition to playing. It occurred to me what a missed opportunity it is to learn theory away from the instrument. Plus, some books are filled with pages of arpeggios and scales, and - while reading is of course an important skill - not every bassist is comfortable with a score in front of them. Learning to read on top of learning theory may be too much at once. Many bassists come more from learning by ear and from getting shapes under their fingers. I wanted to teach music theory supporting that approach."
Music Theory for the Bass Player...
€¢ Is packed with fretboard diagrams, musical examples and exercises
€¢ Offers a comprehensive and in-depth compendium of the theory the bassist needs
€¢ Does not solely rely on standard notation
€¢ Puts the theoretic concepts into the context of groove playing
€¢ Extensive and detailed photo demonstrations show why relaxed posture and optimized fingering are vital for good tone, timing and chops.
Cap, who has a knack for tongue-in-cheek quiz questions, funny mnemonics and tricks from learning psychology, manages to keep the in-depth material moving along, entertaining and engaging. She is also building a video library demonstrating concepts in the book at arisbassblog.com.
Bassist and educator Kai Eckhardt says about the book: €œAriane has accomplished nothing less than a flawless road map from the microcosm of basic building blocks to the macrocosm of advanced comprehension. The book''s holistic methodology skillfully combines the unavoidable facts of music with an elegant psychological approach to the art of learning itself."
