Re: Week 2: Ballads and Barcarolles
@David Krupka quite possible, if one stick with a particular style or period or even a romantic guitar or a lute that could simplify the need and technique.โฆ

Re: Week 2: Ballads and Barcarolles
@Jack Stewart hmmm... yeah with more surface and thickness (the tip of the finger) I fear the result will always be slower. Did you tried the RC nail kit? my friend got decent results with it...โฆ

Re: Week 2: Ballads and Barcarolles
@Jack Stewart my main concern with nailless is the lack of possible sound colours, at least for my style of playing

Re: Week 2: Ballads and Barcarolles
@Jack Stewart @Andre Bernier sure the mic position or gain could help, hard to say without knowing more about Andre's gear and setup?

@martin The link to this event is not the right one, it points to Eduardo Fernandez upcoming stream, can you fix it before it starts?

Re: Week 2: Ballads and Barcarolles
@don These are not easy pieces and you're already doing well Don! As you said, you already know the solution to the challenging parts (apart the fingerings), by doing slow practice.โฆ

Re: Week 1: Rhythmic Revelations
@David Krupka Yes I was aware of the Rondo-like form for Choro, but the thing is a Rondo usually have shorter sections than what HVL do in his Choros, each Choro sections are in AB or ABA form!!

Re: Week 1: Rhythmic Revelations
@Steve Price They're not as easy as it looks
... and about section repeats, in AB form I usually only repeat A and not B, and most of the time B includes a full or partial return of A.

Re: "a" finger nail shape
@Michael Shirk you're right, maybe you wrap the strings the first time to know the base shape for your nails then after do it another way... I use to put a sandpaper on the side of a table and use aโฆ

Re: Week 1: Rhythmic Revelations
@Jack Stewart yeah I usually do ABCA for ABACA, the middle A is a bit too much IMHO.

Re: "a" finger nail shape
@Michael Shirk pretty similar to Viloteau's one... once you have your base shape it's then easier to build on that. But for sure great tone and sound is not just a matter of nail shape.
