@Jack Stewart That is so wonderful to listen to, Jack! I can’t wait to hear the rest. It looks really difficult, but you make it sound so nice. I love Chopin, and I wish I could play more.

Scarlatti Sonata K32 Scarlatti sonatas are frequently transcribed for the guitar. Here is one that is fairly easy to play. I definitely recommend listening to it on harpsichord and piano as well,…
