@Blaise Laflamme That was wonderful, Blaise! The control you have over your right hand articulation is so impressive. What had happened to your guitar, and how did you get it back?

@Barney That's awesome, Barney! It's such a majestic piece, and those harmonic changes are unpredictable and really catch the ear.

Re: 🎶 Latin American Music Challenge | Week 4
Assad- Valseana (Oct 22) Here's another go at this after another week of practice. It's maybe incrementally better. My slurs still need work. I am trying to memorize it, but it's just not there yet.

@Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary So gorgeous, Nijwm! If I remember correctly, this is deceptively difficult, and a real left hand workout. Those birds are great!

Re: 🎶 Latin American Music Challenge | Week 3
@matt Beautiful, Matt! Your arpeggios are so fluid. Great decrescendo at the end. I don't know the music. Is there a piece for every month?

@Andre Bernier Good job, Andre! There is no need to apologize. We all know how hard playing music is! These videos already represent a lot of hard work and learning.

Re: 🎶 Latin American Music Challenge | Week 3
Assad - Valseana Sorry for coming so late to the party. The beginning of the school year has been a real time crunch for me, so I was actually planning not to join this challenge at all.…

Re: Mastering Tricky Passages with Martin
This is my second request, so if you can't get to it, that's fine. I am now also working on Ponce's Prelude 8, which is rather well-known as a fingering challenge.…
