Re: WEEK 3: Mastering Carcassi's Etudes
@Martin Thanks, Doc! It is definitely easier to make the third string ring clearly by barring all six (seven!) strings - what a great tip! I do still feel the pain in the forearm,…

Study 15. For the last few days of the challenge, I wanted to try something nobody had done yet, and I settled on number 15. Here I am playing through it after making some fingering choices.…

@Emma Thanks for the update, Emma. I hate pull-off to open strings! They are so hard to make sound nice. I hope we get to hear you play it!

Re: WEEK 3: Mastering Carcassi's Etudes
@joosje Amazing, Joosje, and so beautiful! I had to listen to it twice in a row, just to take it in. Right now, a couple of things really strike me. First, you play the animato section so nicely,…

Re: Virtual Masterclass Featuring Bach, Tarrega, Assad, and Ferrer
Thank you so much, Mircea! I am afraid that I cannot attend the class live and I will have to watch it later. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on all four of the submissions. 😀

@joosje Spectacular, Joosje! Beautifully phrased with a wonderful, singing melody line, and clear dynamic shaping. Have you always had a seven-string guitar?
