    Here is a left-hand reduction of the first 8 bars of Recuerdos to help you get started! 

     (fixed a wrong fingering in bar 7, thanks to Blaise Laflamme  for catching that!)

      Blaise Laflamme I guess the rare technique of having a barree with finger 2 belongs to the upcoming workshop of strengthening all fingers by funny exercises... 😀

    • Robert yeah a barré with finger 2 but lifted in the middle to let the G string ring, that's indeed a rare technique only used by a former magicians!  😂

      Blaise Laflamme 😂 Therefore, it is called the "Siegfried&Roy-Barré".

    Nothing like a good challenge... I'm a very rusty player who never was good to begin with and have found tremolos extremely difficult. Just joined this site with hopes of improving so I'm glad to bite on this opportunity despite it probably being way above what I can learn in two weeks with my current skills. Please count me in if there is still an opening!

    Hi Martin,

    @Martin Is there still room for me to join this challenge? I haven't played tremolo in a very long time.  It's never been great, so could really use some directed attention. Thanks!
