Thank you, 🎉

Perhaps you could give us a method of learning all the pitches on the Guitar. When I am looking for a pitch I have to figure it out often.

Improvisation is exactly what Sor wanted to teach his students.

Bar 13 and 14, I think Sor meant us to let the notes ring, the A and F rings together then, B and G together, C and A, D and B... The writing at the top of the page says '' Do not lift a finger that's pressing a string until you need it elsewhere''.

Very nice👌 subscribed 👍

Thank you for applying modern functional harmony to Sor. I see at times it can get unnecessarily complicated. Are you familiar with the Rule of the Octave (RO), figured bass and other harmonic rules from the galant era? RO would explain for example the presence of a D in an F chord. Thanks again for the time and dedication you put in this videos.

Thanks this is great!

Amazing teacher! Is your name somewhere on the video?

Very nice explanation. And I must say I enjoyed Little Britain greatly.

Something very basic that I have trouble with, and need to practice without the guitar, is simply naming notes in reverse order. I'm not sure why, but I find it easy to count backwards (7 6 5 4 3 2 1) but find it very hard to say (G F E D C B A). Even in writing them out just now, I had to mentally say "A B C D E F G - ok, so the first note in reverse is G. Now count again A B C D E F G - ok, the second note is F, etc). This especially when I get to A and have to reverse wrap around to G. Hard enough in C major with all natural notes, but in another scale with sharps and flats, and my head wants to explode 🙂 I may be slightly dyslexic. In any event, I really appreciate your lessons and intend to purchase your Segovia Scales course and look forward to it.

Great advice! From what I can tell, you play with quite short nails. I go back and forth between very short nails and no nails touching the string at all, and prefer just enough nail to strongly support my fingertips. Do you have any comments on this topic?

I just memorized all 24 scales. Im a self learner and just getting into music theory. I found your videos on segovias scales quite inspiring. Made the practice of these scales that much more harder. Thank you for all the videos you post. Ill be rewatching all your videos.

I remember being taught that repeating note pattern another thing i was taught was to pluck the string but pretend to pull towards your elbow on the right hand the most difficult was all of the above but also relaxing the right hand and the wrist to let it drop down to the proper position i've neglected playing classical music for so long thanks for the vids appreciate them

I got a 100% on my test cuz of this Ty

What I struggle with is how to play 4 notes on 1 string with left hand. There are few whole steps and its not clear what is better to stretch or to switch position.

Needed it! Superb teaching

This is great, what to do with my thumb when playing rest or free strokes with my fingers has always bothered me and it's never mentioned or discussed in tuition books.

Very clearly stated and demonstrated. Iluminating!

The most constructive and comprehensive video on TH-cam. Thousands thanks for your contribution on practicing the Segovia Scales.

THANK YOU for your well-explained lesson. You have a way of leaving nothing unexplained. So many instructors online leave you hanging without explaining their reasoning for the practice, how it's done in its entirety, and why it is helpful to practice the exercise. And it helps to be taught to hear the color and voicing. I will be viewing all of your videos.

Thanks you! The "Rest Stroke (probably more ridged ) is where the fingers extend downward and the thumb anchored. In the "Free Stroke " the fingers are more curved and the thumb follows. Now after 8-10 years of playing the Phrygian scale, I can try to figure out what I'm really using.

So helpful. Thank you

This is a godsend

Thank you So Much!!!!

Thank you!

Thank you for this! Appreciate it! On another note: are you a Bruce Lee fan?

This song is beautiful thank you !!!!!!!!

very helpful!

Excellent tutorial about Brower's Estudio Sencillo No. 2 (Coral). Can you do the same to the other studies? Please? Thank you very much for sharing with us a little master class. Salute you from Bogotá, Colmbia.

fantastic video, but that is why there are so many methods books by the masters , SOR, TERREGA, AGUADO, CARCASSI AND GIULIANI.

Hello! in this example, when we take the G scale, and we raise the 4th degree, are we in Lydian G or C # Lydian? I'm having trouble with that! Thank you for the explanations!

Very Nice ! Thanks!!! Your book on voicing is on the way, so should be Nice to explore it!!! Thanks again!

Your description of these concepts are very evocative….cool.

Hello everyone. What should I explore next? Any requests? - Dan

wow that is some seriously nice work. I have a question regarding Linear Expressions - Pat Martino by Pat Martino. On page 11 you see a Gm7 chord and 2 scales. My problem is I do not understand all of the numbers, or the numbering system. Example: on the A string "4, 5, 6, 8". I see that this is the Gm scale. but "5, 6, 8". I do not understand. In addition, the numbers do not match the treble clef. I would like to purchase the book, but if I cannot make total use of the book. No point. Thank you in advance for you answer.

Thank you very much!
