@David Krupka I could not agree more. As I'm playing through these lessons, I'm realizing just how good they are both didactically and musically.

Dionisio Aguado - Lesson 39 This again comes from the first part of Aguado's method. It's one of several lessons on how to make one voice sustain properly while other voices move around it.…

@joosje So beautiful, Joosje, and yes, very sad. You have such beautiful phrasing, that really brings out the sad longing of the melody.

Dionisio Aguado - Lesson 26 I thought I'd start off the classical era of guitar with some Aguado. Sor is the natural choice, but I'll get to him later.…

@Dale Needles Love it, Dale! This one is in a little book of I've had for decades of vihuela pieces transcribed for guitar by Emilio Pujol. Playing those pieces always makes me happy.…

@Jack Stewart Thanks, Jack. As an unrepentant Sor addict myself, that is exactly the piece I was thinking of too. It has that same choral quality.

@David Krupka Thanks, David. That price is a bit prohibitive. I have no idea how to access Eastman's library (or even where it is). I checked the county library system and they don't have it.

@David Krupka Well I appreciate. At least half the fun for me is learning about the music, not just playing it.
