@Derek If someone told me I couldn’t play anything but Tarrega for the rest of my life, I’d be upset, but I’d still have plenty of joy!

@Olli I love it, Olli! This really dances! I also love your facial expressions. I like it when the performer is obviously having fun and enjoying the act of playing.

@Derek Good work, Derek! I'm always scared away by the B section of Columpio. Are those 32nd notes? 64th notes? Aah! As for Recuerdos, that tremolo is coming along nicely.…

@joosje I love this! I think you definitely played with the qualities you mentioned. It was so gentle and melancholic. You just put another piece on my list!

@Martin Thanks, Martin! I also saw Uros Baric simply play the third beat of measure 10 without the ornament, which is great too.

Tarrega at the Park! It's such a beautiful day here in Rochester, New York, that I thought Francisco and I would go outside. I hope what is lacking in sound quality is made up for in natural beauty.
