Great summary of lesson books. I like that way you included examples from each book playing in the background during discussions. This tells me you've actually tried them, which makes your advice all the more interesting. I would have never considered the Julio Sagreras book before listening to your review. You have changed my mind! Great explanation of the Scott Tennant book, in the past I didn't see much sense in using it.
Thankyou-very informative, I'm half way through Noad's Volume 1 which combined with Tizoc Estrada TH-cam videos is great way to learn. The other books I'm using for technique are Kappel (The Bible of Classical Guitar Technique), Gilbert Biberian (Liber -the Book of Guitar, Vol.1) & Scott Tennant (Pumping Nylon)
Hi Narayan, I enjoyed your interview in the CGC Academy podcast. These are very interesting recommendations. I particularly like the Sagreras Leccione. They are just amazing to play.
Thanks a lot for such informative video. This is truely inspring. Im a beginner and learning by myself. Kindly suggest the first book I should go for and Pl let me know if these books are available in India, if I want to purchase.
Question from an absolute novice: Is it possible to teach oneself to play classical guitar--with no prior training--from books? Or must one at least begin with an instructor before he is able to go off on his own?
@@Nanjayal do you think one can self taught themselves classical guitar and play it professionally without a teacher and just by books and through online? I want to be a classical guitartist and violinist but my country doesn't have a single classical music teacher :(
@@psyche_333 Yes you can learn through books and online instruction. But choose your online instructors carefully. Some books I would recommend are, Solo Guitar playing 1 and 2 by F. Noad, A Modern approach to Classical Guitar by Tim Duncan, and books by Aaron Shearer.

I used to have the book of Frederick Noads too, brought back memory.
Excellent review Narayan. Thank you & warm regards, Mark

Noad's Book I would be my suggestion. It should be available with Furtados online in India. www.furtadosonline.com/classical-guitar-tutors/10058/48
Do not learn by yourself e believe me u will develop bad habits which will ruin everything
Thanks...❤..
cool

Yes you can do it. But having a music teacher will help you improve much faster
Yes I learnt through books. But get a teacher if you can or at least with people who can play.

I want to be a classical guitartist and violinist but my country doesn't have a single classical music teacher :(

I M a fairly advanced classical guitarist and let me tell u can’t learn on your own. Proper technique is the key to be able to play.
What are some books for you to learn music pieces?
Some of the methods covered have great pieces to learn, especially the Noad Books I and II.
You can also get "100 Graded Studies For Classical Guitar" by F. Noad.
Thank you
