(Old Submission Thread, 2020 - Mar 2021) CALL FOR RECORDINGS for upcoming Virtual Masterclass with Mircea Gogoncea
This thread has become too long, and is now therefore closed for submissions. Feel free to use the new thread to submit videos for future virtual masterclasses with me! Same rules as always apply.
Announcement:
Following the success of the first Community Virtual Masterclass on December 13th (<- click to watch), we are once again looking for submissions for the next Virtual Masterclass with me.
A new date and time will be announced once we have 2-3 suitable submissions. So please, go ahead and submit your videos to us by replying to this very thread!
Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis (no deadline), so if yours doesn't make it into this upcoming masterclass, we hope to be able to use it in a future edition.
How Virtual Masterclasses work:
- You send in a video of yourself performing a piece, movement of a piece, or even a passage from a piece.
- Once we have 2-3 submissions, I will run a live stream specifically for you, giving you tailor-made advice for your own playing!
It's like if we were doing an online lesson - except others get to see it and hopefully also benefit from the advice I'm giving you. Here is an example!
It's basically an exact replica of an in-person masterclass: you play for a teacher (in this case through a recording), and they work with you while others watch.
Why?
- Have you been watching the live streams and wishing you could ask me a question relating to your playing specifically? Now is your chance!
- Share your music with others and grow by watching them, too.
- It's basically a free online lesson for you!
What must you know?
- It can be something you recorded specifically for this, or a preexisting recording you already have.
- All levels are welcome! My advice will be tailored to your specific level, and in the past, we've worked with everything from beginners to full-on concert players.
- You must be fine with other people watching the video and your performance, as it will be embedded into the live stream itself. I will start and stop it as if we were doing an actual, in-person masterclass.
- I usually spend about 20-35 minutes per submission.
- While I will try to feature everyone, if we get a lot of submissions, your video might not be immediately featured. In that case however, we'll run more of these very soon!
Where and what to submit?
- Submit right here, by replying to this thread!
- You can either attach a video directly from your computer, or paste a link to a YouTube video
- (If you opt to use a YouTube video, it can be unlisted - no need to make it public!)
- Please also attach a link to the sheet music.

Hey everyone! Since this thread is becoming too long and difficult to navigate, I have decided to create a new submission thread, which is now pinned to the top of this forum!
All the same rules apply: submissions are accepted on a rolling basis, with no deadline. Anytime you have a piece or passage you would like to work on, simply submit your video in the new thread.
You can still comment on previous submissions in this thread, but do use the new one for new submissions. If you make a mistake and accidentally submit here, no worries - with my nifty admin powers, I can move your reply to the new thread. Looking forward to future editions!
Thank you to everyone who submitted so far!

https://youtu.be/QWa_dPXZeQo Hi Mircea, great idea, here's the piece, there's a lot of tension and I think I haven't breathed
Thanks -
Giuseppe Gasparini Thank you Giuseppe! Very happy to see this. No need to send the score for this, I have the Gran Vals handy. All the best!

https://youtu.be/5vEuUiwzEcs Hi Mircea, here I'm playing Lagrima by Francesco Tárrega.
thanks for any feedback!
-
Vilio Celli Thank you Villio! Very happy to hear from you! I hope to feature your submission very soon!

This is the sheet music I used.
thanks Mircea

Hi Mircea here's a video of Cavatina by Stanley Myers. Originally written for the film 'The Walking Stick' and later used as the theme for 'The Deer Hunter'. It was the first take and I've hit the open 6th string E instead of the 5th A at one point and fluffed one of the closing chords but as it wasn't too bad (my opinion!) I thought I'd use it although it may be more me playing it rather than performing it! https://youtu.be/1aGVXdSH2qs. The music attached is copyright but hopefully OK to copy it for educational purposes. Thanks for considering it.
-
Derek Awesome, thanks for sending it in, Derek! No worries about any mistakes - this is designed to be a lesson, so it makes more sense to play music that is not fully in your fingers, rather than pieces you've been playing for a long time!
-
Derek not sure if you got the score

Thank you for your submissions, Giuseppe Gasparini , Vilio Celli and Derek !
Your videos will be featured in our upcoming virtual masterclass on Monday, November 30th at 11 am Pacific Time (2 pm Eastern Time, 8 pm Central European Time).
If the time doesn't work for you to watch them live, they will continue to be available as a recording on our main LIVE page: https://app.tonebase.co/guitar/live
I will make a separate thread for the upcoming live stream soon. Looking forward to this a lot!

Robert Thank you Robert! That is very good to hear! Happy New Year and looking forward to watching your video soon

Mircea In two days I will publish a video of "Un Dia de Noviembre". What a coincidence that on January 7th, Martin will have a lesson on this subject!
-
Marek Tabisz That is wonderful! If you do, and you want to get some advice on it, make sure to post it here! Then we will have enough material to host a brand new virtual masterclass very soon
-
Mircea Tomorrow evening.... My score is Chester Music like Martin's. I wrote a bit about this publication in Martin's thread about "Un Dia ..."
-
Marek Tabisz Awesome! Very much looking forward.
