@Carlo Martins I can only play the beginner's level of his music, Nocturne Op. 4. No. 2 is one of my favorites. If you can handle more difficult pieces, maybe you should try "Schubert - Six Songs".

Re:
What lessons or courses would you like to see on tonebase that aren’t there yet?
How about another In-depth course about guitar recording, a detailed explanation of compression, EQ & reverb, etc. I hope Martin doesn't mind sharing his expertise with us.
