@Martin Thanks, Martin. I had heard it played by Montes, Tavi Jinariu, and Scott Tennant. Very accessible and rewarding.

@Stefanie Mosburger-Dalz Edson Lopes' website is a real treasure trove. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Gm5cK_XYrfyCR-pKBKhidaymmfZKOh87TsJxJqFMd_s/edit#gid=973991856

@Stefanie Mosburger-Dalz Yes, I found Gary Ryan's book online. I was amazed that the word "easy" is in the title - the arrangements don't look easy to me! I haven't worked on any of it yet,โฆ

@Stefanie Mosburger-Dalz I've actually never played any Piazzola, which is a shame since his music is so amazing. I look forward to hearing your submissions.

@Stefanie Mosburger-Dalz That was great, Stephanie! You have such a strong sense of the rhythm in your playing. I had never heard of this composer, but I'll have to look him up now.โฆ

Barrios - Prelude No 5 in E major This piece is completely new to me. I found it on Edson Lopes' website (score attached below). I'm surprised it's not played more often.โฆ

@joosje So good, Joosje! You convey a very clear pulse with heavy and light beats that make this sound very elegant. Great ornaments as well.

@joosje Beautiful, Joosje! Those verses are very tricky to play. Your playing gives the music a lightness which is perfect for this music.

@Steve Pederson Nicely done, Steve. I like the idea of adding bass notes on a repeat, and I hope we get to hear you play it that way.

@Jack Stewart I tend to think of repeats as somewhat optional. That's part of our interpretive license, I say.

@Jack Stewart It aggravates me so much when I can't seem to memorize just four measures. It takes all the enjoyment out of playing for me. I much prefer when the memorizing simply happens,โฆ

@Steve Pederson Yes, I had heard that from many people as a good strategy. I'm not sure how well it's working for me, though. I just find these endless strings of sixteenth notes so difficult toโฆ
