DENVER, Colo., July 30, 2007 – Masakazu Ito released “Guitar Right-Hand Physics: From Rest and Free Strokes to Perfect Tremolo” today, a classical guitar technique DVD produced by Sonata Systems.
In this first volume of his Technique Series, Ito dedicates over 40 minutes of instruction to executing superior rest and free strokes, a detailed examination of the physics involved. Emphasis is placed on the free stroke, with key insight into its relationship to the rest stroke. Masa identifies hazardous technique and exposes widespread misleading advice, especially regarding tremolo.
The volume addresses challenges faced by students learning tremolo, providing essential instruction on how to master this elusive technique. Francisco Tárrega's celebrated composition “Recuerdos de la Alhambra” serves as a basis for the discussion. Work on your technique with Masa using the Tremolo Practice Loop, a DVD bonus feature.
