Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Barney Yes, great description of Ben! I haven't come across any references to Alexander technique yet. I'll notice though, as I progress through the book.

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Barney I'm enjoying the book. Before I bought it I asked myself if I really needed yet another book about the guitar. 😀 Now I'm glad I bought it because it's different from other books I've read.…

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Steve Price Ah yes, with the tied notes. I've seen it both ways now and each way lends itself to effective interpretations.

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Steve Price Thanks for sharing this lesson by Jonathan Leathwood. What a coincidence... I just started reading his book Guitar co-authored with Richard Wright.

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Barney I enjoyed watching Jonathan Leathwood's video. I had never heard of the "scoop and skim" method. I'm more used to pressing in more to the sound hole to bring a note out as @Ariel Elijovich…

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Ariel Elijovich Thanks, my working copy looks exactly the same (except with the tie lines that my teacher drew in). However, in my Eschig edition (2006) there are tie lines.…

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Ariel Elijovich Thank you, Ariel -- I appreciate your support! At the end in m16, my teacher drew in ties on the DGB chord, so I'm used to playing it just once (on the "and" of beat 1).…

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
I recorded Brouwer 9. Well, at least it shows where I'm at with it right now. @Ariel Elijovich Thanks for your helpful videos. I'll continue to refer to them as I work on this.

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Blaise Laflamme I love your interpretation of Brouwer V. You bring out a different feel to each of the rhythms -- nice contrasts. And I'm going to have to try out bending the notes in m9!

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Marc Adler With etude #9, I've been struggling with keeping the tempo slow enough. I start off thinking I'm playing it slow enough, and then hit those tricky parts and realize I must have sped up or…

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Marc Adler Good idea trying out some options to see what feels best. Going into m5, I settled on using 2 as guide finger to F#, 4 on C, 3 on D#, then sliding the same formation to m7,…

@Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary That's such a good reminder you bring up about receiving compliments with grace. I've heard Dr Simon Powis talk about an experience he had after a concert that stuck with him…
