Re: Week 2: Strings Attached
@Steve Pederson this is good Steve. You have your left-hand shapes figured out already. The recording is nice, it is sounding very crisp and punchy! What microphone are you using?

Re: Week 2: Strings Attached

Re: Week 2: Strings Attached
@Steve Pederson hi Steve, thank you a lot. The humidifier is for both the guitar and for myself. During winter and early spring, it gets to 30%RH or below; it makes the skin so dry and irritated.…

Re: Week 2: Strings Attached
@Wai this is a nice listening because Gaspar Sanz is one of my favorite composers. I am into the taste of his music. You have very nice trill execution and clear articulation. Great works Wai!

Re: Week 2: Strings Attached
@Steve Price you are coming along very nicely with this sophisticated piece. The rythm is not the most easy one to grasp, to me. Ponce music is usually like that and you are doing very well!

@Steve Pederson you have a very clean playing. The fingering is already in place. It is evidently a great progress you made. Looking forward to hearing your next progress.

@Jack Stewart good choice for piece Jack! I watched the video in your link - it sounds very sweet on a bird-eye-maple guitar. A not too long piece but is packed with a lot of left-hand…
