Re: Week 1: Let there be Music!

@Wai You always play Sanz so beautifully, Wai! I think it’s fine for this challenge, since it is written for another instrument, the baroque guitar. It may not need to be adapted massively to the…

Re: Week 1: Let there be Music!
@Jack Stewart Thanks, Jack. I know how you feel about Romantic era music (Chopin aside). How do you feel about impressionism?

Re: Miguel Llobet Mini Challenge
Leonesa Here is one that we don't hear too often from Llobet. It definitely has a somewhat exotic sound to it. I think it's one of the Catalan folk songs that he arranged.…

Re: Estudio 2 Tarrega
