TECHNIQUE FOCUS
We begin with the triplet accompaniment consisting of bass note and harmony notes and you should allow the bass note to sound for a full beat each time. The melody starts on the last beat of bar 1 and, wherever possible,I recommend using rest stroke to give it a louder, fuller tone that helps it tostand out from the accompaniment. On the inner harmony notes I sometimes - Nabucco - arranged by Bridget Mermikides pick with first and second fingers and sometimes with thumb and first.
