i think stewart is confusing me with another
correspondent vis an opinion on rolling chords. i was
angling more for the attention of any hapless
volunteers out there who might wish to round out their
tuscan "experience" by shoveling sheep guano under my
olive trees (under the very same tuscan sun of purple
prose fame) or risk life and limb, high atop ladder
while reaching for that last elusive cluster of olives
at harvest time.
just fill in a form disclaiming all possible insurance
claims and i'll get back to you quicker than an
arpeggio.
as a player of a 5c. instrument i would venture to say
that in my case a rolled chord is not all that
different from a normal chord in that i tend to pick
out melodies with a teeter-totter, back and forth,
syncopated rhythm with a horn plectrum and strike
two-finger chords when ever i need something to
fill-in any gaps in the tune - extremely scientific.
