【TAB譜】カプリース変奏曲 No 44

Caprice Variations/George Rochberg

 

 

昔、クラシック音楽の美しいフレーズをギターでコピー（練習）するのがとても好きだった

 

A long time ago, I really liked copying (practicing) beautiful phrases from classical music on the guitar.

 

そんな時に出会ったこの曲はとても美しく、そして難しく・・やりがいのある曲で

 

完璧に弾けるようにはならなかったが、もったいないのでTAB譜に残そうと思った

 

At that time, I came across this song, which is a very beautiful, difficult, and rewarding song.

I wasn't able to play it perfectly, but I thought it would be a waste, so I decided to record it on the TAB score.

この曲はギターで弾く場合「タッピング」で弾かないと不可能である⇩

（※タッピング：ピアノのように左右の指で交互に指板を叩いて音を出す奏法）

This song is impossible to play on the guitar unless you use “tapping”⇩

(※Tapping: A playing technique that produces sound by alternately tapping the fingerboard with left and right fingers, like on a piano.)

そんな中、この曲の☆部分の弾き方が譜面や演奏家によってこのように２つに分かれていた

Meanwhile, the way to play the ☆ part of this song was divided into two, depending on the music score and the performer.

 

 

 

（ギターでタッピングで弾く場合）左手パートのこの「３音」が

 

「D-D-F」か「D-F-F」か？・・の違い

Is this "three notes" in the left hand part "D-D-F" or "D-F-F"? ··The difference of

 

いろいろ試してみたが曲のテンポが速いので（※実際私が聴いたヴァイオリンの演奏はもっと速かった）

 

どちらでも良い気はする

 

I tried various things, but the tempo of the song was fast, so...

(※Actually, the violin performance I heard was faster.)

I feel like either is fine

 

人間なので「D-F-F」といくつもりがテンポが速いので「2個目のＦ」が間に合わず「D-D-F」と

 

なったケースもあるかもしれない・・

Since we are humans, there may be cases where we intended to go "D-F-F" but the tempo was so fast that we couldn't get the "second F" in time and ended up with "D-D-F"...

 

実際は弾く人が演奏しやすいほうを選択すれば問題ない箇所だと思う（あくまで個人の見解）

Actually, I think there is no problem as long as the player chooses the one that is easier for them to play (this is just my personal opinion).

 

ただ、こういう些細な点で足を止め、ストイックに考察してみるだけでも「ご飯何杯でもいける」・・のが

 

音楽の楽しい所👍🎸

 

However, the real pleasure of music is that you can spend a fulfilling time just by stopping and stoically considering such trivial points 👍🎸
