Re: Carulli Larghetto in G minor Op 192 @don Yes, I hadn’t heard it before last week either. It’s just a little piece in Carulli’s giant method book Op 192. Up above is another nice one from the same book (Moderato in B minor).…

Re: Villa Lobos Prelude No 5 @don Thanks, Don. I guess I’d get bored just working on one piece. The funny thing is that I’m actually a horrible multi-tasker in life!
