Re: Group 1 @Borbála Seres This was extremely helpful for me. I've struggled for years with hand position and drifting towards the bridge but it never occurred to me that the problem was in my feet.…

Re: Group 1 Here's a take of the Tarrega prelude. I tried to be a little more free than before as suggested. As I was working on this a little bit of a story took shape in my head which is something I don't…

Re: What courses would you like to see next on tonebase Guitar? @Blaise Laflamme Legnani's Caprices with Borbala Seres would be awesome. Her lessons on what you can do with repertoire on the "simpler" side of the spectrum are game changers.…

Re: What courses would you like to see next on tonebase Guitar? @Ravi It's not a full lesson but Borbala Seres just posted a short video on this topic this morning in response to a question. It was very helpful for me. https://youtu.be/Ln77wBF0nDM

Re: What courses would you like to see next on tonebase Guitar? Great suggestions. I'd really like to see a lesson Henze's Drei Tentos. Also, some shorter pieces like Brouwer's Preludios Epigramaticos and more of Ponce's Preludes and Torroba Castles.

Re: Group 1 Hi Borbála, Thanks for running this lesson. Exercise 1 - This was tough and I struggled playing the notes evenly especially accelerando. I also found that I'm inclined to add a crescendo or…

Re: Group 2 @Blaise Laflamme It's funny I played it as written and I kind of like the half-step dissonance there, lol. What would that be? An F6#5? Brouwer might approve but probably not Carcassi.

Re: Week 2: Deep Dive into Dynamics! @joosje These are really nice takes on 12 and 16. I love the ebb and the flow of the time and dynamics. It really turns these studies into really lovely pieces of music.

Re: Week 2: Deep Dive into Dynamics! @Andre Bernier Thanks, Andre! As far as changing hand position it's just personal preference in this case. I learned just from listening to others and what I thought sounded good to me.…

Re: Week 2: Deep Dive into Dynamics! @Neil Macmillan Nice, Neil. That's coming along well. The repeated notes sound even to me which I think is one of the main things Carcassi was going for so well done.

Re: Week 2: Deep Dive into Dynamics! @Carlo Martins Very nice, Carlo. I've always liked 7 and think it's very dramatic. 6 never really appealed to me on the page but seeing it played well makes me want to take another look at it.…
