    I'm a pianist and I learned this music on piano and mastered. When I see a guitar player, I can't stop thinking on how skilled they are, I mean, a lot of people would say piano is hard, but I believe guitar is the hardest instrument to play, for me. 😅 And you played this music! You r a god.

      Well uh, guitar is one of the hardest imo. But string instruments are also up there. Gotta worry about how far to shift, but theres tabs on guitars, gotta do vibrato, worry about pressure, speed, amount of bow, location of bow on string, like its insane

      ᄒᄒA시 Just meant the way things are played, the way passages are played softly, more intensely, or embellished. It doesn’t feel overdone or needlessly complex and when there is emphasis it feels deserved. So by statements I just meant that, the right embellishments and mood/vibe and tempo throughout.
