Week 3 - Tears of Joy 🎉

Final week of the Lágrima Challenge. Time to put it all together and play it through, from the first notes to the Da Capo. 🎉

We close out with a Watch Party on Friday November 6, 5pm CET, so post your performance video here to be featured: a single phrase, one half, or the whole piece, rough edges welcome. 🎥

Still working through the Lágrima Track? Post where you've got to. Every bar counts.

One last question: what can you do now that you couldn't do three weeks ago?

    I have not had as much time to work on my Lagrima variations as I would have liked recently. This is where it sits right now.

       Very good indeed Eric! Love the harmonics at the end

       This is really nice, Eric. I agree with Ron; the harmonics are a great touch.

        Thanks, Ron and Steve. I do wonder if the harmonics section at the end cuts a little too close to Tarrega's original. That said, I think Britten's Nocturnal does something pretty similar at the end as well (not that I would ever put myself within a thousand light years of Benjamin Britten).

       Just my lay interpretation, but I think that the theme is clear, but the mood is very different, so it would be a good way to bookend a variety of variations. Nocturnal is a great example, and so is Lennox Berkeley's variations.

       Your variations are really well done, Eric. As is your performance. Definitely keep going and perhaps considering having it published. Great work!
