@Jack Stewart I haven't heard the Beethoven. I'll have to check it out.

@Jack Stewart I’m finding quite a few pieces by him that I like. I usually associate him with somewhat bland beginner pieces, but there is more to him than that.

@SULTAN BAMUKHIER Very good, Sultan! When I play for others, I often like to start with this piece. It gives me a lot of confidence, and allows me to start by concentrating on making good music…

@SULTAN BAMUKHIER That sounds great! Carcassi's Opus 60 is so wonderful. I look forward to hearing your progress.

@Hannah Murphy Talk about a treasure trove! The only one I hadn't heard before is the Coste, so I may give that a try.

@Hannah Murphy Thank you, Hannah. I often find recording more nerve racking than playing for others, because I know I can always "make it better" by doing another take,…

@Hannah Murphy Thanks, Hannah. We did a Carcassi Opus 60 Challenge last year, so I wanted to find some different Carcassi pieces to play. Opus 11 is quite nice.

Carulli - Andante Op 320 No 1 This is from a set of six andantes by Carulli (see the score attached below). They are a bit more interesting and challenging than the beginner level pieces of Carulli…

@Blaise Laflamme Thanks Blaise. I hadn’t heard of them, but I looked them up. Very similar to Carcassi. This one reminds me of Op 60 n 3. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5KKYJD09qCk

@Martin Thanks for the update and kind words. I’ve been playing this piece for about a week now. The things I struggle with are occasionally missing a note in the arpeggios,…
