Re: Week 4
@Barney Thank you, Barney. Steve is the one who got me into a Scarlatti mood. There are a few places where the bass line is not as legato as I would like.…

Scarlatti K77 Dec 6 Here's my first time playing it all the way through (but without repeats). Plenty still to do, but I got through it.

Re: Week 4
@Steve Price Hmm ... that is really a different way of doing it. I'll have to give it a try.

Re: Week 4
@Steve Price I love it, Steve! This is another great piece of music that translates very well to our instrument. It is beautiful with or without fancy ornaments.…

Scarlatti K77 B section 12/4 Naturally, the B section is trickier than the A section. In particular, I struggle with the ornaments. When I hear this on the harpsichord or the piano,…

Re: Week 3
@Steve Price Yes, the minuet seems like one of those moments when Scarlatti got in his time machine and wrote music from his future. I actually really like it right after the sonata.…

@Jack Stewart Thank you, Jack! I do not have the book, just the score to this one, which I got with a Google search. It clearly is part of a book, since it is labeled with page numbers 17-20.

Re: Week 3
@joosje It is sounding really good already, Joosje! A couple years ago, I saw a transcription of this by Bradford Werner, but I can only imagine David Russell's is much more challenging.…

Re: Week 3
Scarlatti - K34 (Nov 29) Here is another go at this. I tried to have more of a dynamic plan. Also, after listening back to my previous recording, I tried to avoid over-arpeggiating the note pairs.

Re: Week 3
@joosje This is wonderful, Joosje! It starts so strong that it really grabs me and pulls me in right away. And then the rhythms and harmonies keep my attention going.…

@matt Thanks, Matt. My setup could not be much simpler. I have a Samson Go Mic that I bought for $40 at Walmart. I plug it into the USB port on my laptop and record with the video camera on the…

Re: Week 3
@Steve Price Wow, I love that Scarlatti! It makes me want to dig into his sonatas more, as this is certainly very playable on guitar. Are you using Apke's transcription?…

@Steve Price Thanks, Steve. I have seen that movie many, many times, but I never noticed that La Paloma was playing in that scene. Naturally, I had to go check it out for myself,…

Re: Week 2
@Jack Stewart You really do have the transcription gift, Jack! Did you have the benefit of seeing other guitar transcriptions, or did you just go from the piano score alone?

Re: Week 2
La Paloma Here is a fun one I thought might work well for this challenge. The song was written by Sebastian Yradier in the mid-nineteenth century. I was able to find several transcriptions of it,…
