Re: WEEK 2: Conquering Carcassi's Etudes @joosje Thank you so much, Joosje! Everything you said is spot on correct. I am definitely rushing those triplets. The descending thirds and sixths at the end need to be much more lyrical.…

Re: WEEK 2: Conquering Carcassi's Etudes @Martin Thank you, Martin, that works much better. I can't believe I didn't notice that problem in my fingering.

Re: WEEK 2: Conquering Carcassi's Etudes @joosje Thank you so much for your thoughts, Joosje. I like the idea of making the chords in the first section lighter and bouncier. That would create even more contrast with the second section.
