Star of Wonder

James Welburn

Arpeggios played with predominantly 8th note rhythms.

Notes whose lengths are equal to one-eighth the value of a whole note or half the value of a quarter note.

Sharps, flats and naturals that do not appear in a key signature.

Ornamentations that are notated in a smaller size than normal notes and played slightly before them.

A type of articulation indicating the player to play smoothly and seamlessly, with the notes slightly overlapped.

An Italian term meaning "delaying"; an indication instructing the player to decrease speed, often gradually.

A technique of playing 8th notes where the first 8th note is held longer than the second of a grouping of two; used often in jazz and blues.

An accompaniment pattern that steps between chords to outline the harmony and uses predominantly quarter notes.

Temporary displacement of established meter by the stressing of a weak beat.
