Technique
21 Bars. AABBCA. This song is not too hard to play. Once you play it
a couple of times, you will get the hang of it.
The last section is interesting because it's played in pizzicato, a
technique borrowed from the violin or cello. Play pizzicato with your
thumb (p) only. When you pluck, place the heel of your thumb close to
the bridge of the guitar. Make sure you keep you wrist horizontal and
move up and down according to the string being plucked. A perfect
delivery of Pizzacato is a damped sound that resonants clearly.
Tip
To Practise Pizzicato, Play any scale with all the strings. Play a
major scale starting from the top string to the bottom string. All
pizzicato must be played with the thumb. To sound is dampered by the
right hand. It is important to move your wrist up and down to damper
each individual string.
