Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @don Lovely selections, Don! I particularly enjoyed listening to the Girl with the Flaxen Hair, as we don't hear that one too often.

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @joosje I love these so much, Joosje! Aguado’s studies are full of charm and elegance, and each one has such a clear pedagogical purpose, given to us by Aguado himself.…

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @Blaise Laflamme Thanks, Blaise. I'm not sure if Coste intended these to be in any way progressive. For instance, I think #5 (which I skipped) is one of the most difficult.…

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @Derek Wouldn't it be fun to take your guitar there and play the piece in the cave!

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @Derek Very nice, Derek. It's so dramatic. Is this named after the cave in Scotland?

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @Jack Stewart Thanks, Jack. It is challenging, but when played well, it is very effective. I'll see if I can get it there.

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @Rick Lord What an incredible start, Rick! Such beautiful tone and phrasing! When you go dolce (like at 0:35) my heart melts. Thanks for the score - this is one I’d like to play someday too.

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @Martin Thanks, Martin. I skipped number two. I was thinking of doing them all sequentially, but some are very difficult and I would never get even close to finishing by the end of the challenge.…

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! Coste - Op 38 No 4 This study really is one of my all-time favorites. It's short and fairly simple, but just so beautiful. I would put this alongside more well-known pieces like Tarrega's Lagrima,…

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @Wai Thanks, Wai. Tarrega might be a good place to start. He has so many outstanding miniatures you could play, such as Lagrima, Adelita, or Marieta. Mertz also has some great intermediate pieces,…

Re: Week 1: Wanderer over a Sea of Fog! @Blaise Laflamme Thanks, Blaise. I'm not planning to do the whole opus right now, just some of my favorites. The whole opus would take me too long, as several of them are quite advanced.

Re: What are your difficult passages? @RENATO I disagree with you saying "is not that difficult". I played several Barrios pieces in the April challenge (none as difficult as La Catedral 3rd movement) and my left hand has never been so…

Re: What are your difficult passages? I think I recognize that score you posted above, @Martin . Is it from Sor Op 60 No 1? I've been looking at some of the etudes in Coste's Op 38. I really like number 6.…
