Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @joosje Thanks, Joosje. I have never been able to get the feel of quarter note triplets, especially when there are regular quarter notes in the other voice.…

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @joosje This was so incredibly kind of you, Joosje! Thank you so much! I had tried a couple ways to play the harmonics in measures 20-23, but not like that, which makes a lot of sense.…

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @joosje I could not attend the livestream, and since it was interactive it was not recorded. I’ll just have to watch how you do it!

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @Martin Thanks, Martin! I'd still like to play it more confidently and up to speed, but at least it's not something beyond me now.

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! Study 9 Here is my first stab at this incredibly beautiful piece of music (my favorite of them all). I am only playing up to measure 20 here. I'm still wondering if this is perhaps beyond me right…

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @Derek Hey Derek, I hope you're doing okay. That was the trickiest part of number 4 for me as well, and I botched it a bit on my recording. I hope to be able to hear you play it soon!

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @Brett Gilbert I really wish I could have been there! I have just dipped my toes in to number 9, but I think it may be too difficult for me to do well. It sounds so easy when Marina plays it!

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @joosje You play this so beautifully , Joosje! It feels very relaxed. I really enjoy listening to someone else play it, because I really hear it more musically,…

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @joosje That's great, Joosje! I think the darkness around you works well with the music. As always, your sound is so good. I actually really like the slurs you play toward the end (F# to F I think).…

Re: The Shearer Method - Learning How to Learn This looks really interesting. My only formal lessons were for three years (1988-91) and my teacher used all the Shearer books. Below is a picture of what I remember the books looking like.…

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @joosje I've started looking at this one too. It's definitely a lot harder than it sounds when I listen to Marina play it (she's so good!). I don't know if I will be able to pull off these complex…

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! Study 6 Final (?) Update I'll probably make this my last video of this study. I feel a slight improvement from yesterday. I am a bit more confident with measures 5-11,…

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @Brett Gilbert My family thinks these pieces are nothing but wrong notes! They appreciated the Carcassi challenge a bit more.

Re: WEEK 2: Dóbry den’ (Good Day)! @Elizabeth Uyehara Yes, this kind of music forces me to be very attentive to the score, since my ear doesn’t really tell me if I’ve played a wrong note.…
