Re: Isaac Albéniz - Mallorca (Barcarolla) Op 202 Jan 14 Inch-by-inch it is feeling more secure. I focus on the problem areas, and seem to improve them, but then when I go to record ... well, we all know that feeling!

Re: Let's Talk Guitar Supports! @Bill Young I only have one guitar and one support. The Ergoplay is fine, I just wish the pad would have stayed attached longer.

Re: Let's Talk Guitar Supports! @Bill Young Thanks Bill! Does the replacement come off too? Mine came off after about 5-6 months of playing. The duct tape I use to keep it on doesn’t look too great, but it does the trick.…

Re: Let's Talk Guitar Supports! Hi Ashley. I cannot attend but I will watch it later. About a year ago, I got an Ergoplay. I love the ease of use and the position it puts my guitar in.…

Re: Isaac Albéniz - Mallorca (Barcarolla) Op 202 Jan 12 It's slowly getting into my fingers. I am playing completely without a score now. I didn't really set out to memorize it, so that has been a pleasant surprise.…

Re: Isaac Albéniz - Mallorca (Barcarolla) Op 202 @Steve Price Thanks, Steve. It’s my favorite Albeniz piece as well. It is pretty darn long, isn’t it? I should probably play it a bit quicker, but that will come with more practice, hopefully.

Re: Isaac Albéniz - Mallorca (Barcarolla) Op 202 January 11 I have been practicing it for four days now. I more-or-less have it memorized, but I am still using the score a little here.

Isaac Albéniz - Mallorca (Barcarolla) Op 202
This is a piece I have always loved and wanted to play, so I'm giving it a shot. There are a lot of arrangements of this piece, with very significant differences between them.…

Re: Week 1: Going North! @Rick Lord Sounding great, Rick! I find it difficult just navigating the notes on this one. Every measure is like a new permutation.

Re: Week 1: Going North! @David Thanks, David. I'm not really sure what suggestions to make. Maybe later today (when I get home from work), I could make a short video walking through what I do when shifting the chords.

Re: Week 1: Going North! Landslog X Of numbers 7-11, I think this may be the only one I have any chance of being able to play. The rest are just beyond my technique level. This piece is nothing but harmonics,…
