Scordatura 4 – Nevicata by Benvenuto Terzi

Here’s we go to the 4th part of the Scordatura series. This time I introduce the 6th string tune D, 5th string tune G and other strings remain standard tuning. This tuning is quite common among the classical guitar repertoire.

The model of this tuning is Nevicata (snow-fall) by Italian guitarist, composer Benvenuto Terzi (1892-1980). The music is lyrical and shifting between G major and G minor (that’s what this tuning for). There’s a special technique that the left hand playing the trill while the right hand playing the artificial harmonic at the same time create an amazing effect.
