Lamentos do Morro ("Slum Laments", maybe?!?!?! - someone can help me? 😊)

I studied these piece during the first week. It's a good piece but I didn't get the hang. Maybe at week 4. Thank you for listening!

  Blaise Laflamme Yes!! Bellinatti did an unpayable service to the Brazilian Music, researching and publishing Garoto's Work. It's a great job, in two volumes. I like the original version, which is in Volume I, and that is which Bellinatti plays. Thank you for listening!

  Dale Needles Thank you for listening! I'm working on some hidden phrases and I confess that the rhythm is a bit difficult for me... I learned the Milonga before the Samba... 😄

  Eric Phillips Thank you! I think I can improve this swing... 🙂 In fact, as I said to Dale, I need to "reveal" some phrases that are still hidden in the harmonic mass. I'm sure will be an interesting job. Today I was working very very slow, and some phrases were smiling for me!

Here is a small sample of three of Carlevaro's Microestudios (#1, 3 & 6). Chanterelle published 20 of Carlevaro's Microestudios in a four-volume set in 1990s.

  Dale Needles Interesting. This is my first time hearing these Microestudios, they sound beautiful and mysterious. One more book I need to buy. 😂

  Wai Wai Definitely check them out. They are a good complement to your Brouwer's Estudios Sencillos. I recommend starting with the first volume which has the first five microestudios. Also, there is a great youtube video of Carlevaro giving a lesson on these five studies. (240) A Guitar Lesson with Abel Carlevaro. - YouTube

Barrios - Oración (Apr 12 update)

Thanks to Moyses, I'm using a new fingering for a particularly troubling measure. Overall, this is getting better, with fewer big mistakes. Unfortunately, I played the accompaniment too loudly again in many places.
