Re: Week 4: From Cardoso to Carlevaro!
@Jack Stewart you did great i think. i'm not familiar with this piece (looks challenging for me). Kudos for choosing this one. i'm myself often rhythmically doubtful about my playing.

Re: Week 2: From Barrios to Brouwer!
@Jack Stewart That's rock star vibes, especially the beginning section. I was transfixed on your left hand speed, control and dexterity. You look really comfortable and immersed in this piece. Bravo.
