The long line is a particular level of <strong>engagement and continuity<\/strong> throughout an entire piece of music. \u00a0(Think of the music grabbing you by the shirt and pulling you along, all the way to the end.)<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The long line is an aspiration and guide for our playing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It can exist in a small piece of music, as well as a large piece of music. Even as large as <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B008ER9QKG\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B008ER9QKG&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=allenmathews-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wagner&#8217;s Ring Cycle<\/a>, <span style=\"color: #000000;\">(which comes in at about 15 hours!).\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The effect of creating a long line is that listeners are engaged from the very first note until the very last note. There is an energetic force that propels the music forward and keeps the music energized and alive.<\/p>\n<p>There is exactly the same concept in writing, in movies, and in storytelling of all kinds. \u00a0When you simply can&#8217;t leave the movie theater to go to the bathroom because it&#8217;s so good and there&#8217;s never a good place to leave, that&#8217;s the long line. \u00a0When you stay up late because you just can&#8217;t put down the book, that&#8217;s also the long line.<\/p>\n<p>People get sucked into social media for the same reasons. \u00a0There is always something new and exciting demanding our attention and forcing us to keep engaging. \u00a0These sites (and others) have created a &#8220;long line&#8221; of sorts.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a bit different than music, but the basic concept is the same: perpetual interest and constantly unfolding action.<\/p>\n<p>As they say, satisfaction is the death of desire.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">How to Create The Long Line<\/h2>\n<p>The forward momentum of any piece can only be accomplished through <strong>an absolute understanding and demonstration of the details.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/fine-details-classical-guitar-polish-perfect\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">All the small details<\/a> must support the main &#8220;idea&#8221; or core emotion of the piece.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Masterful musicianship is defined by the handling of the details.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>We have (1) the large structure (our overarching concept of the whole piece), and we have (2) the details. \u00a0The details are the way we connect each note, phrase, and section to the next.<\/p>\n<p>Details include our <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/dynamics-phrasing-classical-guitar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dynamics<\/a>\u00a0(swells and fades) from note to note, our <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/rubato-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">stretching of time<\/a>\u00a0(rubato), and our articulation (<a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/slurs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">such as slurs<\/a>).\u00a0 We can also include <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/classical-guitar-tone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tone quality<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We can also recognize <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/phrasing-unity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">common patterns and elements<\/a>\u00a0throughout the piece.\u00a0 Then we can form a plan for how to handle these elements. \u00a0This way, we create the larger structure that holds the piece together.\u00a0 The piece becomes one cohesive idea.<\/p>\n<p>Even contrasting musical material can still have the impression of being &#8220;cut from the same cloth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/a\/phrasing-techniques\/\">Click here for methods of phrasing and expression that encourage a long line.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Avoid Stopping the Action<\/h2>\n<p>Just as there are ways of playing that propel the music forward, there are also ways that we can inadvertently stop the action.\u00a0 These we can learn to recognize and avoid.<\/p>\n<p>When we bring the momentum of a piece of music to a stop, we must then start again.\u00a0 This provides an opportunity for listeners to tune out or become distracted.\u00a0 These closures break the long line and can lead the piece to sound like disconnected sections (or more than one piece).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some tendencies to avoid:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/accents\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Accenting every high note<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Slowing down too frequently, or at the end of every phrase.\u00a0 We can also <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/back-up-ritard\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">back up the slowing<\/a>\u00a0so we regain time before the end.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/transitions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Starting each new phrase<\/a>\u00a0or section with a loud note.\u00a0 Phrases that start with <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/beautiful-ties-and-syncopations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">syncopations<\/a>\u00a0can be an exception.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Rubato<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/rubato-practice-metronome\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rubato<\/a>\u00a0is the stretching or compressing of time. \u00a0This means slowing down or speeding up.<\/p>\n<p>Ritardandos (<em>rit.<\/em>), rallentandos (<em>rall.<\/em>), and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/fermata\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fermatas<\/a>\u00a0are examples of rubato.<\/p>\n<p>To use rubato correctly, we have to <em>bend<\/em> time, but not break it. \u00a0The rate of deceleration or acceleration has to make sense in the given context (which is where many players go off course).<\/p>\n<p>If we give extra time to some notes, we must give less time to others to make up the balance. \u00a0The end result is that the piece takes the same amount of time as it would had the rhythm remained steady.<\/p>\n<p>If you can do this well, everything just &#8220;feels right&#8221;. \u00a0If there is a deficit or surplus of time created, we register this subconsciously and the &#8220;spell&#8221; of the piece (the long line) is broken. \u00a0Things just don&#8217;t add up.<\/p>\n<p>The impression that poorly organized rubato (time-bending) gives is that of a parody of beauty, rather than actual beauty.\u00a0 The listener may understand what is meant, but intellectually, not emotionally.<\/p>\n<p>We can use a &#8220;bad&#8221; rubato for intentional parody as well.\u00a0 Schmaltz, slapstick, or melodrama are examples of this.\u00a0 If this is our goal, great. If it&#8217;s not, we should use a more structured and organized rubato.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Recommended Listening for Examples of the Long Line:<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZmIrTaEm4Rw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mark Westcott, playing Maszkowski&#8217;s Guitarre Piano Solo<\/a>:<\/h3>\n<p>Note the use of rhythm as an expressive tool, the shaping of his rubato (stretching of time), and the way he handles the scale work. \u00a0This type of expression is possible on guitar as well (with practice!).<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_8lg447-QiY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mark Westcott playing a Bach Allamande<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Masterful use of dynamics and rubato.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=d_joY2irwK4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Arthur Rubenstein playing Chopin<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Again, listen to ways that sections of music are connected and the bending of time just seems to make sense. \u00a0Even when the music comes to a stop, you are pulled forward through the break (the &#8220;conversation&#8221; continues).<\/p>\n<p>I also like the funny living room setting and general gentility in this one.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qCXhGNplnlc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sergie Rachmaninoff playing Chopin<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Magical use of time. \u00a0The listener is constantly drawn forward. \u00a0One of my favorite recordings.<\/p>\n<p>Notice also the way he backs off on the highest notes in all but the most important places (like the climax of the piece).<\/p>\n<h2>Further Reading on the long line, and phrasing in music<\/h2>\n<p>For practical application, consider a <a href=\"https:\/\/my.classicalguitarshed.com\/classical-guitar-courses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CGS repertoire course<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/my.classicalguitarshed.com\/membership\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">become a member<\/a>.\u00a0 Members learn and train in many methods of playing beautifully.\u00a0 For free lessons, see the Phrasing section of the <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/cgs-archives\">site index<\/a>, as well as &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/category\/full-lessons-pieces\">full lessons on pieces.<\/a>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Reading is good, but actually learning musical devices and ingraining them is more useful and embodied, and less &#8220;heady&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the best resources I&#8217;ve found have been included in older piano texts. \u00a0This creates the chore of &#8220;separating the wheat from the chaff&#8221;. \u00a0Still, if you are interested in going down this wormhole, here are a couple of places to get started.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0195343131\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=musiciancom02-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0195343131\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Musician&#8217;s Way, by Gerald Klickstein<\/a>: This is a wonderful read on practicing, learning, some phrasing, and general musicianship. \u00a0It&#8217;s not guitar-specific, so it would be a great gift for any musician.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.org\/details\/musicalinterpre01mattgoog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Musical Interpretation, by Tobias Matthay<\/a> (Excellent.\u00a0 Any of Matthay&#8217;s works, really. \u00a0He was an extremely influential piano pedagog.)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/\/Users\/admin\/Desktop\/musical%20phrasingNCMR-article.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Phrasing \u2013 the Very Life of Music, by Mine Dogantan-Dack<\/a> &#8211; An academic paper.\u00a0 Also a great collection of citations for further reading<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/810181.Casals_and_the_Art_of_Interpretation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Casals and the Art of Interpretation, by \u00a0David Blum<\/a>: Casals was a top-notch cellist and conductor. \u00a0On guitar, we deal with slightly different issues because the notes immediately start to fade as soon as they are played. \u00a0Still, this book is good for insight into interpretation and thinking orchestrally.\u00a0 Plus, it has the sunny quote on phrasing: <strong>&#8220;Remember that all music, in general, is a succession of rainbows.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For nearly a decade, I studied with the great concert pianist, Mark Wescott.\u00a0 He shared many concepts from the piano tradition that were new to me.
