@Paul Kennedy Thanks, Paul. I couldn't find a guitar transcription of Erlkonig, but I did find this video of it played by Johan Smith. He does an outstanding job with the music of Schubert and…

@Chris Coghill Outstanding, Chris! I felt like I was sitting outside at a French cafe listening to that.

@ivan paolo I love it, Ivan! It's another nice change of pace from the type of music we typically hear in this forum, and very welcome. The melody came through so beautifully.

@joosje Thanks, Joosje. I feel very overwhelmed by the task of making a decent recording. What I really love is playing the guitar, and this piece has become a real joy to play.

@Hélène Beaulieu Thanks, Helene. I don't play piano, but I suspect it's a relatively easy piece on piano.

Schubert's Waltz Op 18 No 6 I wanted to try my hand at writing a transcription, so I chose this piece as I could not find any version of it for guitar online. It's also pretty simple.…

@Hélène Beaulieu That was excellent, Helene! What a special performance. I particularly enjoyed the first half. Your dynamics and rubato made it so expressive. Well done!

@Derek I could probably play it blindfolded, with one arm tied behind my back.

Re: What's your favorite Villa-Lobos Prelude?
@Blaise Laflamme You young kids and your speed metal! I always wondered why they would call themselves Anthrax? Maybe some band today could call themselves Covid!

@Blaise Laflamme Thanks, but he has so many more that are very difficult to play. I'd love to do some of his Chopin, but I find it too difficult.

Re: What's your favorite Villa-Lobos Prelude?
@Blaise Laflamme I cannot deny that. Like you, I once played metal, but the early stuff (Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, some Ozzy).

@Blaise Laflamme Thanks Blaise. I do like his transcriptions, but I'm playing a lot of them mostly because he did so many, and they are easy to find and free!

Re: What's your favorite Villa-Lobos Prelude?
@Blaise Laflamme You would pick the hardest one! The arpeggios in the B section always scare me away, but they have almost a heavy metal feel with those parallel fifths moving up and down.
