Re: Villa-Lobos Prelude No.1!
@Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary For my part I apply this principle in almost everything I play, I have rarely encountered a musical text which explicitly asks that everything be played the same without any…

Re: Villa-Lobos Prelude No.1!
@Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary Also an interesting approach to colour, as opposed to use in block or all fingers at once, is to use it through music components, like bass or melody or anything else.…

Re: Le Support Voyager
@John Mardinly OMG... you never know what's going to happen... that's why I prefer to remove the support and put my guitar in the case.

Re: Le Support Voyager
@John Mardinly You're right there's nothing about that on their website, kind of weird, but it was announced on September 5th on their FB page...

Re: Le Support Voyager
@John Mardinly LeSupport is still available but they stopped shipping because of Tariffs, as for Savarez you don't order directly from them but from a store or an online store like SBM,…

Re: Le Support Voyager
@Barney The one I have is a K&M and as far I can tell it works, that's mostly the support that touches the stand at the bottom but as long as the suction works then it's good enough.

@Barney Never tried, I'm not a big fan of guitar stands.

Re: Le Support Voyager
@Barney Maybe you can use a stand that grips on the neck, like an electric one?

Re: Le Support Voyager
@Barney I'm more used to putting my guitar in its case, I've seen too many things happen to my friends' guitars, otherwise I put it on my bench.

Re: Le Support Voyager
@Barney I'm glad you like it, you ordered it on time, I just read a few minutes ago that LeSupport is stopping their shipments to the USA for now!

@Martin Thanks for the recap, I'm sorry I couldn't participate, I caught covid and I'm not in great shape, maybe see you next Friday then!

Re: Villa-Lobos Prelude No.1!
@Andre Bernier Just to say that nothing prevents you from only learning what's reachable to you or only a part, a section or a specific technical element.

Re: The Space between Sounds
Thank you@Ariel Elijovich for this superb text, and for me the space of almost 10 years without playing or touching the instrument was necessary for what I do now. 🙏

Mi Olvidado by Jeff Gosselin

Jeff, a fellow Canadian guitarist and composer, recently contacted me to share this work with me. What better way to get to know him than to play it! Thanks for listening!

Re: What is the longest you've ever gone without your guitar?
@John Mardinly I'm glad to see you've found a way to work with your condition, it's what we all have to do, but some like you have it harder.

Re: What is the longest you've ever gone without your guitar?
@John Mardinly I hope this has resolved for good, on my side I did not have any problems other than doing something else in my life to the point I almost forgot my link to the music 😓

Re: What is the longest you've ever gone without your guitar?
Almost 10 years without playing, and at some point I thought I'd never play again... but when the call came back, I reconnected without compromise!

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Marc Adler That's an interesting technique and effect, the first time I heard that was in the 80's but I'm not sure if it was in «Alice aux Pays des Merveilles» for guitar trio by Claude Gagnon or…

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Ariel Elijovich Yes I understand the "choral" approach to voicing in #6, but the character and mood to be created with the grouped voices and the absence of sustained rhythm requires a very…

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Steve Price I think his point is that the corale-style doesn't necessarily mean the voices have to always stay the same volume. Choirmasters will use dynamics to bring out certain lines in a piece,…
