WEEK 1: Select And Practice Your Piece! 🕴

Stefanie Mosburger-Dalz that was great! as you said, while some work remains, you already have done a lot as a foundation for this beautiful piece. Can't wait to hear your progress, bravo! 💪

Blaise Laflamme oh thank you so much, it was the first time I managed to get through;-), had already made some videos today and it was not fluent, and then I decided to stop and did one more just for fun and that was it!......relax......not easy

Jack Stewart thank you!

Stefanie Mosburger-Dalz haha... welcome to the club of recording! By chance you did the last one 👍

Stefanie Mosburger-Dalz Beautiful! I've started this piece many times, only to move on when it just got too difficult. You have made such incredible progress very quickly. Those chord voicing are so difficult, but your are managing them quite nicely already.

Steve Pederson that was, what I told my teacher some wheeks ago, that I feel lost above the 12th fret and that I urgently begged him to now let me go and change that... doing this makes me feel more secure, more familiar with the whole fret, more free. So start doing it, it just goes further above...I took some wheeks to handle it to let the tone not be dead, but step by step it grows;-)

Eric Phillips I have to work a lot on muting, on flageolett on shifting softly, on how to move my hands above 12th fret to let the tone stay alive, the score looks simple, but it has a lot of themes to really work slowly on. But I am glad I did that step out of my comfortarea- and thak you for coming up with Barrios in the challenge of Latin Music-I did not know about his music and now feel so enriched!

Stefanie Mosburger-Dalz hi Stefffi. Sorry for my late reply. I finally took some time to listen to all you busy bees, and share my reflections. This is already sounding so good. You have really good control in the high positions and chord changes. Congrats! It’s not an easy task to let the upper voice sing and keep the middle and bass voices clear and rhythmic without accents. This is a piece that will grow in time, as you keep playing and refining, and it’s so beautiful. 

joosje Thank you so much- you can imagine, how much I worked on it since Roman gave it to me, but in this video I had luck, I was just giving up and as Douglas Adams wrote -we have to miss the ground to fly;-)....I did manage to leave the ground for some seconds but now I am back and try to get that again...
