Elizabeth Cotten la “mancina del finger picking”

in #ita5 years ago

Nasce a Chapel Hill, Carolina del Nord il 5 gennaio 1895. l’unica #donna del gruppo di figli George Nevills e Louise Price Nevills, a quanto pare. All’età di otto anni, iniziò a suonare il banjo del fratello maggiore e, poco dopo, la chitarra nascosta del fratello. Il problema era che oltre ad essere donna Elizabeth Cotten era anche mancina, un bel casino per il periodo dove i mancini erano visti davvero di cattiva luce, Ma Elizabeth sviluppa una tecnica molto particolare, e usando il classico finger picking inizia a suonare la chitarra capovolta, come faceva Jimi Hendrix il risultato è incredibile, ascoltatela in questa interpretazione del brano che la rese famosa. Freight Train, *nota: il nome sotto video è sbagliato.

Born in Chapel Hill, North Carolina on January 5, 1895. The last of 4 children and only woman of the “group” . Father was George Nevills and the mother was Louise Price Nevills. At the age of eight, She began playing the Big Brother’s banjo and, shortly thereafter, his brother’s hidden guitar. In addition to the fact of being a women, Elizabeth Cotten was also left-handed, a nice mess for the time where lefties were seen really under a bad light, but Elizabeth develops a very special technique, and using the classic finger picking approach on the guitar, she begins to play the instrument upside down, as Jimi Hendrix did, the result is unbelievable,in this video she plays one of the most famous song from her repertoire sFreight Train, * Note: The name under video is wrong.
