Thank you for explaining that and what Led Zeppelin used from that. you played very well thank you for posting

Thank you what a great explanation of musical theory loved it

Excellent video with many good fingering solutions. First bar alternate fingerings: Use fingers 1-2-3 for the d-minor chord and finger 2 (4th string) and 4 (5th string) for the bass notes. I prefer these fingerings because the 2-4 on the 4th string is an uncomfortable stretch for my hand.

E major Pentatonic?

I like this,do more from opus 114!

very helpful analysis, and great performance, thanks for doing this!

Hello Joachim, congratulations for your videos. I found your channel a couple of weeks ago and I appreciate very much what you are doing, it is great to see someone talking about music and understanding the guitar and music in a deeper way, I myself am in the same quest and interest. Keep up the good work, best wishes from Costa Rica!

Im so glad I watched the entire video. Brilliant ! I completely agree about reading music.

Thank you Joachim, very interesting video! 😊

Thank you so much, Joachim! You continue to expand my view!

Hey, really enjoyed the tutorial. There is only one thing I think you got wrong. Sor described this study as "an exercise simply for finding notes." However, "he continued by following the indicated fingering, and by taking care not to lift a finger until it´s needed for a lower or open note". So I think in some passages you could hold some of the notes longer (for example 12:20). In that part from Db to Gsus there was also a little rhytmic issue. But that´s just my opinion. Maybe I got it wrong too :) I am really glad to see videos like these. Love from Slovakia ❤

I like the honesty of you channel. I will learn this one as you did, my memorising is similar. Thank you for this video n adding the score, I think your tone and legato are superb

This is a great video, I agree that the guitar is extremely difficult to tune. And as we develop a very sensitive ear the slightest out of tune note can hurt. I subscribe to you and will look at your other videos

Thank you for this fresh view on this old topoc! 😊

Yes, having more than one way to tune is very helpful.

Some models of classical guitars have compensated saddles so that the lengths of strings are "compensated" to match the notes when they are fingered at specific frets.

Sehr interessant!!

Why didn t you use a proper tuner instead of a phone toy?

Nice explanation. I enjoyed your discussion on the tuning quirks of our beloved instrument! ☺️

Thank you, Joachim! As an older player with high frequency hearing loss, I am always looking for more definitive methods of tuning. I have found that the Peterson StoboClip tuners offer a "sweetened" tuning for classical guitars (CLA) which has been a big help to me as a good starting point and for frequencies that I no longer can hear.

Thank You....Excellent !!

Love it. Great analysis.

Excellent. I like your style and demeanor, and how you think and communicate. I subscribed.

very tricky exercises)))

I like the ones where the down beat falls on a different finger as they all get a chance to be the one adding emphasis.

hi Joachim, thanks for this clear education of this approach with analysis and structure. It helps me with practice (fingering) and interpretation, BUT also by learning and playing by heart. It reminds me of the saying of Johan Cruijff (late famous soccer player) "you see it as soon as you get it".

Very interesting Joachim.😀

Thankyou Joachim for your wonderful musical knowledge 🤩

The part of Tarrega's Lagrima feels to me like it would fit into some arrangement of Autumn Leaves. Turns out the notes are THE ULTIMATE TEARFUL MUSIC FORMULA ;)

As an electric guitar player who also took up classical guitar I find tabs are adequate. These days you can figure out tempo quite accurately by watching RUclips videos. Many classical guitar books also come with audio samples. I'm a pragmatist, not a perfectionist. That's why I drive a Volvo not a Ferrari. Learning notation is too much hassle for my personal needs and time schedule.

Tablature is quite a useful tool in that it may imply suggested fingering ideas but it is only effective if you can read music also. A lot of modern musical notation will include tablature for guitar to be used effectively together. I have read somewhere that tablature is as old as musical notation itself.

Notation obviously. ❤

Thanks for pulling that together so brilliantly.

A very useful video

Great advice! Thanks!!

I have two guitars made in Yulong Guo's shop. Absolutely beautiful instruments that sound incredible. Up until recently I had never even heard of him but i had the opportunity to buy two guitars and I took it.

Great analysis. Thanks for uploading.

This piece is one of the few Bach works that can be played without really difficult fingerings. Two remarks. First. There is still another way to play the first bar: easy and legato. Second. Bar 15 is the most difficult spot, but if you play for a few years and have a good guitar this gives no problem at all. Taking the bass an octave higher is typically one of those mistakes that guitarists often make while attempting to perform Bach on their instrument. But at the same time they lower or even ruin the musical quality of the work. So don't do this, it is not a minor adjustment. I have a strict rule: if I cannot play it exactly as the master wrote it, I don't learn the composition.

I played electric guitar for years before I took the plunge and started classical. So many great composers like Sor, Giuliani , Carulli and many others. I've certainly enjoyed my fauré into guitar, it's good for strauss relief. Where have they been haydn all my life? Learning more about guitar is certainly on my chopin liszt.

". . . and so that problem is solved." Yes, but at some expense to the composition. Another solution might be to go ahead and play the low F with extra emphasis, then followed by a very short phrase break as you simultaneously let it go, muting the 3 base strings with the RH thumb as you guide LH fingers 2,3,4 up the trebles just in time to play the arpeggio. Yes, the bass sustain will be broken, but it will actually attract the ear of the listener to it and provide an interesting and dramatic effect which can sound intentional. Another solution that some with large hands and/or well developed stretch between LH 1 and 2 is to play and hold the low F and use 2,3,4 on the 5th fret. (Then consider the following A bass with 4 on string 4, fret 7, F with 1 fret 3).

I played this for the first time on Friday and immediately noticed the fingerings. I went to look for some advice for guitar, but only found keyboard lessons which did actually help with stylistic choices, though. This video is perfectly timed 😁.

I am so glad that the original uses the higher F, so I don't feel like such a cheat on stiff hand days.

Wonderful to listen to this great performance with this so interesting and beautiful instrument of the time🎶💐🎶Thank you!

Magnifico Joachim!!!! You must be a good teacher!

This is wonderfull Johakim! I realised that I need to work harder on those Gavottes if I want to be as good as you! Félicitations !

Great lesson today.

Great video. I have a PDF of the original and have played through some of the pieces. I didn’t pick up that each of the sections were for different levels. And that the two preludes and the Morceau can be played together as a short suite. Makes more sense now. Thank you for your work.

Very interesting. Thank you.

A very interesting topic about a great Guitar composer! Thanks a lot Joachim Geissler!

blew my mind with the sarabande motif
