Re: Week 4: Spain in 19th ! 🐂
@Jack Stewart Thanks, Jack. I like many of Ferrer's pieces more than this one, but I can see why it would be popular among guitarists and listeners. It's fun to play and sounds really "Spanish"…

Re: Week 4: Spain in 19th ! 🐂
@Blaise Laflamme I don't think I applied it twice. Maybe I did by accident, I can't really remember.. My ear is so unobservant of these kind of things.

Re: Week 4: Spain in 19th ! 🐂

Tárrega - Prelude No 1 I've decided I would like to take the rest of the week to work on this piece. It's such a lovely piece, and I've never really worked on it before,…

Re: Phil Goldenberg: Better Nails for Better Tone
I noticed during one of your livestreams that you own a lute. How do you deal with the fingernails issue? I'm a guitarist who recently received a lute as a gift from my family.…

Re: What was the last piece of music that inspired you?
My heart always melts when I listen to any vihuela music, or the fantasias of Francesco da Milano. After watching Nigel North's lesson on Weiss' Tombeau, however,…

Re: Week 4: Spain in 19th ! 🐂
@Wai Thanks, Wai. I think you are referring to the way I play parts of the B section in a higher position, going up the fourth string? If so, that's just to keep the melody on the bass strings as…

Re: Week 4: Spain in 19th ! 🐂
@Wai What do you mean you didn’t play it well? That was great, Wai! I really liked the little articulation you have to the opening measures (and their repetitions). It gave it almost a Latin feel.…
