Re:

@martin hi Martin, I’m sorry I need to drop out of this concert. I’ve been experiencing some nerve issues in my hands. I’ll be seeing a neurologist this week for a diagnosis but in the meantime I’m…

Re: Technical Passage Mini Challenge
@martin I agree with you Martin! I also prefer to not play the barre in that passage. It is definitely the trickiest part of the piece. And I like your ornaments. They sound very nice.

Re:
What lessons or courses would you like to see on tonebase that aren’t there yet?
This is a big one… I’d like to see Tonebase offer an accredited online conservatory degree, like Berklee, but for classical guitar.

Re: Week 1: Monsters come in all shapes and sizes!
I am late to the challenge but as they say, better late than never. I am currently working on Sor Opus 6 No. 11 for one week. I don't know if it's considered a Monster but it is for me because I've…

Re: How many pieces do you work on at a time?
I practice 3-6 hours a day depending on what other projects I’ve got going on. This gives me enough time to practice sight reading, warm ups, and technique.…

Re: Guitar sizing
Hi David, if you are in the US there is a Kenny Hill World Player model in 628 scale length. I have an older student in his 80s who doesn’t have great flexibility and this is a good guitar for him.…

Re: If you could master the technique of any guitarist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
@David Krupka thanks for the links, David. I appreciate it and I’ll check them out. I joined the UK lute society when I bought my lute. It is, indeed, a good resource.

Re: If you could master the technique of any guitarist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
@David Krupka thanks for the encouragement David. You’ve given me something to think about so I’ll maybe put those extra strings back on! My lute is made by a student of Lorinczi’s, Gagyi Denes.…

Re: If you could master the technique of any guitarist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
@David Krupka it’s made by a local luthier in Romania. It’s an 8c Renaissance lute. I don’t play with nails so I get a nice lute sound but I really can’t handle those double courses.…

Re: If you could master the technique of any guitarist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
@David Krupka That's very true, David. I did the recent Tonebase month long master class with Thomas Viloteau and he had me work a renaissance piece with serious performance practice.…

Re: If you could master the technique of any guitarist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
@Jack Stewart a few anecdotes should not give us the right to call Segovia a bad teacher. He may not have been the right teacher for some but for others he was a very good teacher.…

Re: If you could master the technique of any guitarist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
@David Krupka Thanks for those links, David. It would be remiss of me to not swing the pendulum back a little bit on Segovia. He played everything with a romantic interpretation and for early music…

Re: If you could master the technique of any guitarist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
@Robert St Cyr todays players need to study the poetry inherent in Segovia’s playing. Sure, the recordings are sub par but you need to remember none of his recordings were edited.…
