Listen "Confirmation 01: Fingering and ornaments"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode I go through a fingering for Charlie Parker's "Confirmation" as it is played on Sept 29, 1947 at Carnegie Hall. A lot of time is spent on ornaments, and how to get them to work smoothly and authentically on guitar, as well as the usual issue of where to play a particular phrase on the neck, and what you might consider when choosing a fingering.
