It would be great to have a workshop on Abel Carlevaro, the composer given by one of his students such as Eduardo Fernandez.

@Steve Price Hi Steve, I was not fortunate to study these Microestudios with Carlevaro since they came out in the 90s, and I was studying with him throughout the 80s.…

Re: 20 Microestudios (No.1 - 10) - Abel Carlevaro
@Wai I think Microestudios 1, 3, & 6 do make a nice set to perform. Also, don't give up on #9. It will grow on you. Listen to Carlevaro playing it and try to pick out the melody line.…

Re: Gaspar Sanz
@Eric Phillips I agree one of Carlevaro's objectives was to adapt these pieces to the modern guitar. Another, maybe more importantly, was to freely arrange them using some of his own musical ideas.…

Re: Gaspar Sanz

Re: 20 Microestudios - Abel Carlevaro
@Wai Hi Wai, looking forward to seeing you continue with these great microestudios. I will keep an eye out for your next update. BTW, Microestudio #9 is one of the best ones in my humble opinion.

@Jack Stewart Very lovely piece and your playing of it is coming along nicely. I agree with Eric, you have an affinity for Chopin.

Re: Week 1: In the Salons of 19th Century Paris! ☕
@Wai Very nice. Your playing is really sounding good. Your tone is so very "dolce." My only modest suggestion would be to add a little more contract with your tone but otherwise, excellent playing.
