Fire Dance

The solos in this book have been found to be especially well suited for players who have not played guitar solos before. They are printed in approximate order of difficulty, the easier pieces first, the harder pieces later. Study Notes have been added after each piece, giving the kind of help that a teacher might give in a lesson. In some cases, two versions of a solo have been printed, showing different ways of playing it. Small exercises have been added to help with certain problems.

When the wind blows through the trees, they start moving and dancing together. The wind ripples across the smooth lake, the light shimmers in it and waves begin to dance. If the tiniest spark is inflamed by the wind a wild fire dance ensues which can destroy entire forests.
I tried to set such images to music. Observing the wind you realise that it dances to different rhythms: soft and irregular swaying in the trees, just as irregular but wilder and more vivacious in the flames. Only in the lake does the wind let the waves dance peacefully.
