THE ARPEGGIO IN DIDACTIC LITERATURE FOR CLASSICAL GUITAR

The art of instrumental performance has a specific purpose - to present a musical work (author's product) to a wide public auditorium - an audience. In order to accomplish this practical activity, the performer is necessary to adopt and master certain instrumental skills. Some of them are universal, others are "tied to" the specifics of the instrument itself, and others refer to certain elements of the musical language. By their nature, the techniques are skills created by the both hands finger movements. Fully studied and perfected, they are part of the instrumental technique, which is a tool of clear, convincing and "picturesque" representation of the artistic content of the musical works. In the process of classical guitar education, techniques are mastered step by step in accordance with their complexity, using didactic approaches outlined/exposed in the books. The review of such editions, which are created in a different period of time, illustrates the development of different pedagogical views in the classical guitar training. This provides practical and applied knowledge to the instructor of a musical instrument as an irreplaceable assistant in the teaching practice. This argues the consideration of arpeggio - a major technique skill in the context of its widespread application in the didactic instrumental literature and its fundamental importance for the development of instrumental technique in classical guitar. Expanded exposure with detailed organization of activities and modern manners of mastering the arpeggio technique, the author presents in the article ‘Innovative approach of mastering the specific arpeggio technique in classical guitar education’ (Miteva-Dinkova, S. ‘Innovative approach of mastering the specific arpeggio technique in classical guitar education, Collection of papers from International Scientific Conference ‘Science, Education and Innovations in the Arts’, Plovdiv, 2018). This text clarifies the origin, development and achievement of the most efficient ways of work that provide rapid and positive results in the pedagogical practice based on a review of basic didactic books (Mauro Giuliani – 120 Right Hand Studies, Francisco Tàrrega – Complete Technical Studies, Emilio Pujol – Escuela razonada de la guitarra, Abel Carlevaro – Seria Didactica para Guitarra, part 3 – Right Hand Technique).
