Re: Watch Party for "Music YOU Love Challenge!"
@martin I looked at the calendar to get an idea for a theme and the only thing for March on my US calendar was St Patrick's day. That made me think of folk or folk themed pieces.

Re: Week 3: Show your Flowers!
@Barney That's awesome, Barney. I always liked De Falla going back to when I first heard the John Williams "Spanish Music" tracks. So much of it fits so well on the guitar.

@Dale Needles That's really nice, Dale. I love how even his more accessible music has some modern vocabulary mixed in. It always keeps it interesting to play and listen to.

@Eric Phillips Really nice work, Eric. Number 5 was one of the first pieces of Sor's I really loved. I've tried to play it off and on over the years, but it's so deceptively difficult and so hard for…

@Dale Needles Nice, Dale. I hadn't heard this one so I had to look for it on Alfredo's site. I can see it being played as a set with Campo Arado and something else.
