Week 3 - Excerpt Clinic // May 17

Hello everyone! This week, we will be looking at excerpts sent in by you, our beloved community members 😁 🎉

 

Thank you to everyone who submitted suggestions about what to tackle in this livestream. Due to the very high number of requests, there is a chance that we won't get to everything in the time of our stream.

 

However, I will do my best to get to as much as possible, and will prioritize diversity of request sources - so basically, for those that have suggested multiple excerpts, I will choose one and circle back if there is any time left at the end.

 

I will attempt to provide fingering solutions and, where needed, a practice map for the most problematic of these excerpts.

 

Here is a complete list of all the requests that have come in throughout the course of the past two weeks - check the request thread (<- click) for score fragments uploaded by our users!

    How about Tarrega's Danza Mora:  (a) Scale at very beginning, and (b) on line 3. the first melody in VII position  high E string ( b-c#-d#, etc)-- how to bring out melody clearly without hitting/sounding adjacent strings.
