SUBMIT SHEET MUSIC EXCERPTS for Week 3's Livestream Here!
Hey everyone, so like the rules thread says, in the Week 3 Livestream: Excerpt Clinic" (May 17th), we will be looking at excerpts you suggest, yourself.
These can be from standard repertoire pieces or from pieces I've never seen before. Submit the sheet music for these excerpts here and I will feature them in-stream!
Feel free to choose something related to one or more difficult scales, arpeggios, hard-to-coordinate passages, or anything else you need technical help with.
I will provide one or more possible fingering solutions, technical tips, or a practice roadmap for you.
↓ Reply below with your submissions and questions! ↓

Hi Mircea! My submission is this Mertz Op. 23 No. 6 Capriccio. I used to have in my repertoire and I’d like to bring it back. I remember struggling with mm. 24&25 so before I tackle it again I’d like some RH fingerings that really work. Right now in m. 24 it’s pmpipmim but I wonder if pmpipapm might work better, or whatever you think. Thanks!

Debbie Thank you Debbie! I think all pages were attached successfully
looking forward to taking a look! -
Debbie Good choice Debbie. This piece is in the 'Guitarist's Hour' Vol 3 published by Schott. I've had that book for a very long time (before Mircea was born!) and I keep meaning to have a go at it. This will push me into it :D

Derek oh that’s pretty neat Derek. And there is was thinking it was kind of obscure.
-
Debbie I thought it was pretty obscure but it is in the latest version of Trinity College London grade 6 exam syllabus so not any more :D
-
Derek it’s a great piece so it definitely deserves more attention!

Great pieces were already mentioned here!.
I have 2 fragments on my wishlist. 1st is Johann Kaspar Mertz, le Romantique. The first section (long cadenza style segment.)-
my 2nd piece is a guitar duo: Manuel de Falla, Danza Espagnola No. 1 from La Vida Breve, second guitar part, the 2 fragments in 32nd notes. (Ed. Eschig, Pujol)

Hey Mircea, sorry for the late submission - I thought we were to play our selections and I hadn't made a recording yet. I just now realized you're asking for just the scores.
I have been having trouble with a couple (or more) passages in Sauguet's Solilique. The first passage begins at the bottom of page 2 onto the top of page 3 especially coming into the chord at the end of the first system on page 3. The other passage is the 2nd system on page 4 leading to and thru the chord towards the end of that line. It is quite stretch!
I've included all 4 pages just for context.

I also meant to mention that I will be traveling tomorrow during the livestream so I won't be able to 'attend'. I'll watch it later on video and will be back online for the final broadcast.

Hi Mircea sorry - got to go out so will miss at least first part of tonight. Hopefully catch the later part. Will catch up what I miss tomorrow

How about Tarrega's Danza Mora: (a) Scale at very beginning, and (b) on line 3. the first melody in VII position high E string ( b-c#-d#, etc)-- how to bring out melody clearly without hitting/sounding adjacent strings.
