Absolutely wonderful piece of music that I’ve always wanted to play. You’re gradually doing tutorials on my favourite pieces of music, how about Hallelujah, the Jeff Buckley version or Cançion Mixteca from Paris Texas by the incredible Ry Cooder. Thanks for sharing your wonderful tutorials, you have rekindled my love for the guitar.
Thanks Rob I absolutely love Malaguena. One of my favorites Spanish guitar classical guitar pieces. I have my own version on the baritone ukulele thanks again that was great❤❤❤
Fantastic. The first piece I was taught at age 12. I could site read music within a month and was loving my guitar. I then got sent for my first guitar exam and the examiner shouted at me and called me useless because I couldn’t play ( hadn’t been taught) a scale with no open strings, 1976. I didn’t pick up a guitar again until 2004.
Awesome job, Rob! So good that I'll forget how you butchered the words "Malagueña" and "Tárrega" almost beyond recognition. Thank you for posting this wonderful song. Cheers, Dave.
Fantastic Rob, can't wait to down load and have a go, give me something to get my teeth into, or should I say fingers. Thanks for an other great tutorial.
Thank you for this Rob, it's a beautiful piece and has made me think that classical music is maybe more my thing on guitar! I am a 'returning beginner' and I have just got to grips with a slow version of part 1! It's going to be a long haul to get through it all 😅. I am playing on a steel string acoustic and my fingers seem to be hurting more than when playing chords! Maybe I am a bit more tense while I learn it. Would you recommend getting a nylon string classical guitar or should I persevere?
Excellent! Thanks so much Rob for sharing. Only that I believe Malagueña was composed by Ernesto Lecuona, a Cuban composer, not Francisco Tárrega (Recuerdos de la Alhambra).
Interesting. I’ve got a book featuring Tarrega’s compositions including Malagueña. To be honest, I was surprised to find that he had composed it but I checked the music and tab and it’s the very same tune. 👍
This is what I found: Ernesto Lecuona, often called the "Cuban Gershwin," wrote "Malagueña" as the sixth and final movement of his Suite Andalucia for piano. The piece refers to the southern Spanish port city of Malaga and is a flamenco-style composition. Lecuona was a legendary Cuban songwriter, composer, and pianist who created over 400 songs and was highly influential in Latin music. The Suite Andalucía holds significant importance in Ernesto Lecuona's career as it exemplifies his ability to blend Cuban and Spanish musical traditions. Inspired by his Spanish heritage and time in Andalusia, the suite showcases his mastery of classical forms infused with Afro-Cuban rhythms and flamenco influences. Its most famous piece, Malagueña, gained international acclaim, transcending genres like jazz and pop. The suite solidified Lecuona's reputation as "the Cuban Gershwin," demonstrating his skill in creating evocative, regionally inspired compositions that resonated globally www.songhall.org/profile/Ernesto_Lecuona?

I will try my friend lol. It seems a little like a surgeon showing you how to do a heart transplant on a YT video but I'll give it a shot!
Can you teach some John Denver songs, starting with leaving it on a jet plane from his greatest hits album with that iconic intro

It’s always better to play classical music on a classical guitar. Wider fingerboard and softer strings make it easier. 👍
🤟
Wonderful, what guitar is that please Rob? 🙏😎

I was wondering why I have heard people play several of Tarrega's songs but never this one. That is the reason. It's not his song.
👌ran out of paper 🤪
First song Keith Richards learned.
Would you do a tutorial on spanish romance clasical peace 👍
Good idea; I do know the piece (John Williams Arr). I’ll give it a go maybe. 👍
@fennahrob6934 cheers can do bits of it would like to learn the full peace 👍👍
