Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!

Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary Very nice, Nijwm. Really good dynamics. 

I've lost files during one step or another in the editing workflow so I know what you mean, lol. 

Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary  Hi, Nijwn! nice work! The camera syndrome doesn't show up as much as you must feel it inside. It's good to know that, sometimes. What was very uselful to me at a time was to write down where to breathe. And practise that as much as the notes. Most usually it goes along with the music. You may find the need to breathe in between some motive sometimes and it's good to try and think exactly where. Breathing, is not often included as a content in the teaching process and it's a pitty because it's super important.

Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary but the fact that you noticed about your breathing is already a very good thing, too!! Sometimes it even goes unnoticed!

Steve Price Thank you, Steve. Yeah, losing files is infuriating and frustrating after having done all the hard work of playing the piece, lol.

Ariel Elijovich Thank you for the feedback and thoughtful advice, Ariel. I'm often an impatient and not a detail-oriented guy, something that's not good for a classical guitarist. As an adult learner and hobbyist, the temptation for me is to finish working on a piece and move on to the next.

Learning classical guitar is like gymnastics, martial arts, fine art and Zen Buddhism all rolled into one and involves every aspect from posture, fine motor skills development, breathing and meditation and tons of patience, lol.

Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary indeed it actually is! 

Blaise Laflamme Thank you, Blaise. I do have the camera syndrome. I become too conscious of myself. I usually have to make several recordings before one is usable. That bar 7, that's very well spotted, thanks a lot for that. I'd been playing that wrong all this time. I'll correct it pronto.

Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary Honestly, you came across as confident in the video, and there weren't any of the usual mannerisms and tics that show up when someone is really nervous. Again, nice job. 

Blaise Laflamme You're one of the best guitarists and very knowledgeable and informed musicians in the community, Blaise. I'll take solace in the fact that even the best ones can have difficulties in facing the camera, hard as it might be to believe.

I'll definitely try your approach to recording multiple takes in one recording and select the best one. In fact, I might have tried it on a few occasions. Context is the biggest factor, which you pointed out. 

About the missed notes/ chords, it's something I need to be careful about. I've been learning to read staff notation from scratch ever since I started classical guitar. It's only been a couple of years that I've learnt to differentiate between the G and the B on the staff lines😄. 

Steve Price perhaps, I'm good at hiding tension lol! But seriously, it's because of friends like you who are supportive and encouraging that makes it a lot easier. So, thank you 🙏
