@Bart Versteeg it won’t take much for you to polish this one off, Bart. Looks like most of the hard work of learning it is already done.

Anything by Sor is a great choice. You’ve kept a lot of this in your fingers over the past half century 😉 @Bart Versteeg

@joosje Nice playing Joosje. This one is big in the hands (meaning stretches) so your connecting everything really well with nice tone and legato. I’m looking forward to your ongoing work with this…

@Eric Phillips Beautiful choice Eric and off to a great start. I look forward to your progress. Ponce was such a great composer. One of my good friends named her chihuahua Ponce!

Re: Week 1 - A New Hope 🌟
@Blaise Laflamme this one is definitely good enough. I love it. Some parts of it remind me of Jorge Morel. I’m wondering if he was an influence.

Re: Week 1 - A New Hope 🌟
You are playing this so well already Nijwm. The voices are well separated, steady tempo, and a nice even flow. Keep up the great work. You’ve come so far in a short amount of time.…

@Blaise Laflamme Well THAT didn’t take 6 weeks! 😉 Such a beautiful piece, Blaise. And our excellent phrasing and articulations really showcase just how nice of a piece it is.

Hello everyone! I'm in the middle of painting my house so please excuse me for not contributing a first video. I'll be going back to Capricho Arabe that I started a couple of years ago but then had…

Re: 🎯 The Etude Challenge — what actually surprised you?
Thanks for the question Martin. I worked on Sor's Opus 6 No. 11. A few things surprised me about this piece. One is that it's deceptively challenging. Some people refer to it as the "pinky piece" and…

@David Krupka I love the stability of using the footstool but my lower back does not! I tried a lot of different supports and my favorite is Le Support from Thomas Viloteau.…

Re: 🎯 The Etude Challenge: Study Pieces, Serious Progress - Week 6
@David Krupka great information, David. It makes sense that the small size makes it difficult to hold. My Torres is a 610 scale but I’m able to attach it to my Le Support and it works great.…

Re: 🎯 The Etude Challenge: Study Pieces, Serious Progress - Week 6
@David Krupka that’s exactly the reason why I had to let it go. The guitar is much easier to play and even that is a challenge for my hand. I do entertain the idea of trying a baroque guitar.…

@David Krupka I typically tune my g strings to an f# and use a capo but I agree with you that nothing necessarily needs to be changed. I’m glad you like the idea 😁
