Apropiación de las técnicas SLAP, Sweep-Picking y Taping en guitarra eléctrica para la adecuada interpretación del tema musical Wonderful Slippery Thing de Guthrie Govan.

Abstract

This essay focuses his attention on the musical theme "Wonderful slippery thing’ by Guthrie Govan" which includes in his exhibition the intervention of two pulsed string instruments: electric bass and electric guitar.

The electric guitar stands out for the performance of different interpretation techniques - slap, sweep-picking, taping and slide - that require a certain level of virtuosity, sonority and style on the part of the guitarist.

However, the initial survey of the work shows a certain level of difficulty that requires a prior technical study process to carry out an adequate interpretation. In fact, its implementation affects the quality of interpretation.

Through the breakdown of each of the technical elements, it is possible to understand and theoretically interpret the work in question and, consequently, to interpret the work appropriately.
