Hi Daniel, as everytime, good job!
Thank You Franck! your comment carries a lot of weight.
Daniel - 💖 Sounds great on a lute.
I've been working on my theory and fretboard, i'm getting close to being able to make your Greensleeves arrangement low G. (Semi-properly... I'm going at theory badly but it seems to be working for me. I'm farther then I thought I'd get with playing and music in general in 11 months, but I'm still a total beginner lol. - I'm really liking low G ukulele and Really want to play your piece. Not disrespecting your work.)
I do have a weird question if you read this far, it's long.
Some background so my question has context:
I messed up my arms. Long story short, they aren't getting fixed any time soon if ever. My right arm is pretty stationary. If I move wrong or move my elbows away from my body (chicken wing style) it causes sharp stabbing, almost black out, pain in my upper arm mostly but in my shoulder too, so I went from being able to strum, moving my arm/wrist, to just kind of anchored with my arm. I can make a knocking motion if
don't get wild with it. My left arm isn't as bad because it's been years it isn't bad enough to cause the blackout anymore, but same problem from a different injury. At the time my insurance was awful so they said I was "fine" after xrays! - yeah xrays. Whatever. I didn't bother having them "xray" my right arm. There's no point and no insurance. Anyway all this makes me compromise position to pick and fret at the same time, but im working with that. This is all just so you know why I'm asking such a weird question, which probably sounds ridiculous, I guess.
Question: (To Daniel and anyone who reads this)
Is there a classical technique you know of, or even a player you know of, that can make a sound like someone strumming - at a campfire type down up strumming - that doesn't involve me needing to move my arm or wrist? I've been trying all sorts of stuff and failing badly. I haven't found something I can do to take strumming's, sound / place, yet when written into songs.
The only bonus to me trying random stuff is I'm getting pretty good at right hand coordination, and whatever you can call my picking. Even started making that john king bell tone thing he does at the end in his bach's prelude video but can't control it yet enough to do it on cue. (That bell tone thing is huge for me even if it's not considered difficult.)
Thanks in advance to anyone who reads all that
Hi Becky - thanks for the feedback. Sorry to hear of your disability...I don't have good answer other than to develop a back and forth stroke with the index finger although that would get tiring after about 30 seconds. I can't say I do much strumming with the classical material--more so with the popular songs. If your sound reminds you of John King's technique I'd say work on that. His sound is the holy grail of ukeists.
You are a seriously talented lutenist, and im just curious on whether or not you'd consider learning The Wolven Storm from the Witcher 3? It's a beautiful piece of art that I think you'd do well at taking a stab at.
Thank You! I appreciate your comment and will search for the music (I haven't heard it)
