Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Ariel Elijovich I am watching the video that Rene did here on Tonebase, and he plays around with different fingerings. I am going over all of my fingerings again to make sure that they are optimal…

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
If anyone wants a MuseScore 3 version of Etude #20, let me know. I like practicing No. 20 by playing along to the MuseScore playback. I can use the Play window to slow down the tempo,…
