All of these are great suggestions! 2 of those are in the works now. Stay tuned for more details.
Love to Learn Tango en Skai,one of my Favourites
I will not probably ever be able to play Sueno en la Floresta but I would truly love to have it as a lesson from Taso :)
That piece would be a phenomenal addition to the site!! Barrios!!
Thank you! That would be fun to do for sure (now to learn the piece....)
The first song I learned. (Long forgotten!)
What is the name of this piece?
@Kevin it’s Sons de Carilhões, a maxixe-chôro by Pernabuco. For a while this was incorrectly ascribed to Villa-Lobos
@avrongoss - Thanks, appreciate the info.
I bought the Tabs for this piece from Yenne Lee's website. Got as far as the intro to the harmonics. I'll try again before long to finish the piece.
Yes Very Beautiful
Nathan - Wow, I mean just wow! Imagine being able to play like that! It's almost a paradox, i.e., "truth is honey, which is bitter". Thanks for sharing.
You mentioned a tutorial with Tavi explaining how to pluck the strings the way he does - is/was there a tutorial for Farewell? Of course, I have a long way to go before I attempt it, but I really want to try in the future. I'm still working (and now making progress) on Lagrima and Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, so I have plenty to keep me busy.
That comment stood out for me as well - lol. Also, same here for me with Lagrima , "I'm still experimenting with how much emphasis to put on the tear drop parts"; my version sounds too mechanical with absolutely no feeling - argh! IMO you have to get the tear drop parts right or you blow the entire piece. However, I feel I'm making a little progress so I'm still motivated. One thing I really like about these tutorials is the fast track section - such a great learning tool! The slow tempo and the bar annotations really help with my practice. I use extensively with Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring. Good luck with your El Testament d'Amelia project.
Another great post Nathan! His right hand seems so relaxed and effortless - so graceful It amazes me that these folks play with their eyes closed at times and not miss a single note.
I would love to see a detailed breakdown of 'Gato' by Jose Pierri Sapere.....it is a gem of a piece but tricky in parts....wonder if Tavi and the fellow Elite guitarists could help with fingering on it??? Here is a version on YouTube for those not familiar with it:
Also Villa-Lobos (any of his wonderful work) please!
Love to have included in Lessons..Agustin Barrios Mangore.Prelude in C Minor
This would be awesome! It’s a great piece and distinct from the others.
This piece has my vote -- exquisite. This was the performance I just watched on YouTube and second the recent motion to make it available. It seems to be Intermediate level though near the ending becomes Advanced. That is about my speed. Dan
PS: This thread is becoming too long to figure out what is new, what is being attended to, and so forth.
So much beautiful music to learn - so little time! Would love to see some more early music...
Air and Variations - Frescobaldi
Lachrimae Pavan - Dowland
Melancholy Galliard - Dowland
CANARIOS! Please ;)
Great idea! We will figure out who would the best to teach this piece. Thanks Valerie.
Yes please!!!!!
Canarios has some really interesting technique. I just got through it, and would love to see a lesson on it to help me polish it
Yes, I particularly the like “off-beat” style of accompaniment.
@valeries1 I pulled it off by watching Fernando Espi performing the piece on this video. Scrub forward to 1:40. I’m sure I don’t have it down perfect. Yet

I’d love to see a lesson for Oblivion

Thank, Ramon. But I’m going to wait forTavi. Classical 🤘
I'd also enjoy learning "Ständchen". Beautiful piece of music.
I think it's my favourite of all the ones I've found.
Agua Y Vinho - Egberto Gismonti

This performance by Celil Refik Kaya is the best I have heard on Youtube. He is an amazing guitarist
