Re: Week 4: Tango Tempest @Eric Phillips That's really good, Eric. You mentioned playing with the tonality and I think that's part of what makes some music hard for me to play through.…

Re: Week 4: Tango Tempest @Dale Needles That's one of my favorites of his. I like when a composer takes a traditional form and really pushes it to the limit. I messed with this before and I thought it fits under the fingers…

Re: Week 4: Tango Tempest @Steve Pederson @Eric Phillips Great performance, guys, and a really nice composition. Those harmonized lines are awesome and I love how the guitars never get in the way of each other which I imagine…

Re: Week 3: Waltzes and Whirls @Jack Stewart That sounds great, Jack. And that score looks really nice. I'm trying to figure out FInale and I'm just starting to add fingering.

Re: Fernando Sor Mini Challenge @David Krupka @Eric Phillips The recording I've been referencing is by Segovia and he just plays the notes staccato. And you know that's the way it's supposed to be since he was such a stickler for…

Re: Fernando Sor Mini Challenge @Eric Phillips This is really nice, Eric. There's a lot going on in a short amount of time. Incidentally, this is also on the Segovia CD that I based my etude 6 on so I might have to give this a try.

Re: Fernando Sor Mini Challenge @Jack Stewart Thanks, Jack. Yes, this one played totally straight sounds a little flat to me but I was trying to copy an early recording of Segovia's where he really accentuates the phrases and plays…

Re: Week 3: Waltzes and Whirls @Dale Needles Nice, Dale. I don't remember seeing that on the page with his works, but it could have been because I was avoiding dropped-d tuning for a while. This is very cool.

Re: Week 3: Waltzes and Whirls @Steve Pederson Those are sounding really good, Steve. Hope you enjoyed the convention. And I still have those Parkening books. Decades ago I remember buying them and thinking "Finally,…

Re: Fernando Sor Mini Challenge Probably my favorite Sor study, Opus 35 Nr. 17 or Number 6 in Segovia's set. Recording these is really helpful. Listening to it I realize I need to pay attention to some of the note values more.

Re: Fernando Sor Mini Challenge @ferran That's great, both the performance and the sound. I've been hearing it more and I'm liking the intimate sound of nailless playing more and more. Well done.

Re: Fernando Sor Mini Challenge @Eric Phillips Those are really sounding good, Eric. I wasn't familiar with either of those, but then he has a pretty expansive catalog.

Re: Week 2: Ballads and Barcarolles @Eric Phillips Thanks for the information. I can see how the bowl shape could be difficult to get used to. I had an Ovation round-back years ago and it was a bit of a challenge.

Re: Week 2: Ballads and Barcarolles @Wai That's a great version of this. The campanella section really adds something to it in my opinion. Well done.

Re: Week 2: Ballads and Barcarolles @Calin Lupa That's really nice, Calin. Yepes was my first exposure to this one as well. To me, this is one of the hardest kinds of pieces to play since that rhythm gives me nowhere to hide.…
