@Nora Torres-Nagel Thank you, Nora. At this speed, I am not even trying to relax in between each stroke. Is that even possible? Maybe all the very slow practice with relaxation after every stroke…

Ferrer - Minuet Op 38 No 1 Here's a short and straightforward piece by Ferrer. It does have a few tricky slurs.

@Martin Hi Martin. I don't really understand what you are saying I should do. Am I playing the first 8 measures of Recuerdos at 70bpm (sixteenth notes)? If so,…

@Wai Well, I think it's wonderful, Wai! Nothing about this is butchered at all. The section from about 1:35 - 2:30 looks pretty hard to play, but the arrangement is very beautiful.

@Jack Stewart I actually find that they can only handle small amounts of me playing, and it has to be something at least a little exciting. If I tried playing this piece, or An Malvina,…

Ferrer - Nostalgia (May 23) I have continued working on this piece by Ferrer, and I'm pretty happy with it at this point. I recorded this one behind my desk where I teach.

@Robert Thanks for watching, Robert. I'll be honest, I'm just doing the work to try to gain a bit more independence in my right hand. I've never really had a strong desire to play tremolo pieces

@Stefanie Mosburger-Dalz I'm discovering a lot of pieces by Ferrer that I like. I'm surprised we hear him so infrequently. Someday, maybe when I retire,…

@Marilyn Blodget These were both so great, Marilyn! I'm so glad you're joining in. Like Jack, I prefer the guitar version, but I am very biased.

@Wai Thanks, Wai. I hear several mistakes, but I need to remember that not everyone will notice or care. The overall effect of the music is more important than some mistakes.…
