Developing independence of the fingers

Lets now work on a series of exercises based on the structure of four chords, one per bar for the entire series of exercises. It deals with a readaptation of the famous 120 arpeggios of Giuliani, modified for this occasion. The scope of this series of studies is to recreate different situations for the fingers of the right hand. The chords in question are very simple, recreated to give a catchy harmonic sequence. The fingerings are not very difficult for the left hand, so that we can give all your attention to the fingers of the right hand.
The fingerings of the four chords are the following:

In the first part of these exercises the sixth string isn't played, in the case where the Em and G chords should be the root note, would instead be C and Am. The exact phrasing of the Em chord would then be Em/B, and G would be G/B. To make the reading and the fingering easier, we will leave the nomenclature the same.


We now use two fingers simultaneously.
