Re: WEEK 1: Vamos, Compañeros
@Blaise Laflamme Too late, I already started the next challenge. It's the John Cage challenge, and I submitted a video of his masterpiece 4'33". Great piece, and works very well on the guitar!

Re: Song and Sorrow: Tárrega's Lágrima
As usual, I cannot attend live, but I’ll be watching this one later for sure! It doesn’t look like it’s interactive, is that correct?

Re: Sor Op 21 Les Adieux
@Blaise Laflamme Thanks so much for taking the time to look at it, Blaise. I highly value your opinion on all things guitar, especially technique. At higher speed, it's just a lot of hopping around.…

Re: Ballet by Ponce
Beautiful, Emma! I am not familiar with this piece at all. It seems to me that Ponce's music has a great deal of variety to it. You're doing a great job and I'm sure your performance this Saturday…

Re: Evocacion Jose Luis Merlin
Such a beautiful piece and great choice, Luciano! I've read through the score a couple times, but never really worked on it. I remember some of the barres are difficult on the left hand.…

@Roni Glaser I love this, Roni! Great contrasts of rhythm and texture. Excellent use of silence (love that long pause after the intro). The build up at the end was just awesome!…
