I just shared this with my sister, who is a new guitar player later in life. Coincidentally, this was the first piece of music I learned to play on my nylon-string guitar when I first started during college many years ago. What a fun reminder.
You are my inspiration to learn fingerstyle ... You are my mentor till date and I have learned lots of things marco.... Thanks for teaching such wonderful musical pieces with love ❤... Respect from Bangladesh...
Truly one of the best lessons I've seen on RUclips. I've always wanted to play the guitar. I'm 65, so perhaps too late fo me to learn now, but I wish I had a teacher like you when I was a kid!
Not too late! I am 63 and started 4 years ago. Fingerpicking for 1 year. It was the best decision! It might be that I have to exercise more, doesn‘t matter, I do it for myself. I love it, I have fun. And especially this classical piece sounds so relaxing and beautiful.
This has come at just the right time for me. After a lifetime playing steel strings I was recently fortunate enough to be given an ancient Landola classical nylon string guitar. It has needed a clean, new nut, some modifications to the bridge and a new set of strings. It has a beautiful tone and all I need now, at the age of 77, is to learn a completely new way of playing guitar. I think this piece will be a good introduction, does it have a name?
Chord diagrams..... imagine that the nut of the guitar is to the left, not as it appears 'at the bottom'. For example:- A7 notes A+G are open. I hope this helps. .......... Thank you for this helpful video.
If you turn your phone so that the diagram of the cord stacked one on top of each other then it makes sense it's like we're looking at a negative Peace n serenity
Thank you. I finally believe I could learn to play. My Dad and sister played. I wanted to play in 1969, but gave up the idea. I played a clarinet in a concert band! The video was a s a wonderful blessing. In
Hi Marco, thank you so much for this, I am in love with this piece! The classical guitar is my favorite sounding instrument, but 6 strings is too much for me as a beginner, so I have been substituting it for the Baritone Ukulele until I develop some skills and experience before making the plunge into Classical guitar territory. I have a question for you, that I am just not understanding. What is the difference between the Am you play in this piece and the Am/E ? I must have rewound this video at least a dozen times and your fingering looks identical to me, so I can't for the life of me find the difference. I have been playing the Baritone Ukulele fingering for all the chords and playing along with you, but I can't find any Baritone fingering for an Am/E chord. Is the regular Am chord what I should be playing in its place?
The Am/E is the same fingerings for the higher notes, but playing the low E for the bass note. You'll see he has the same fingering with his left hand, but he plays the E string for the bass note instead of the A string. I hope that helps. God bless
@@CJ-cf7ih Thanks for the suggestion but the pinky is too short and developing strength is frustrating . What I have achieved is creating a situation where the middle finger has to work overtime . It works but never will achieve a level of perfection ,two finger tremolo sadly nigh on impossible .
@@burtwallace5909developing your pinky strength will be so worth it just practice going up and down the fretboard using each finger and stretching your pinky to far notes it'll get stronger quick
I would practice using your pinky. Not that it is an obvious answer because it is a new challenge to overcome and not easy. I mean, I can't do it very well myself. But Christopher Parkening spoke about this in a masterclass that I attended 20+ years ago. He broke his ring finger on his right hand. After that, he started using all 5 fingers for tremolo like Stephan Rak.
Doesn’t classical guitar/pieces require a different seating/holding position? Or is it ok to hold it like the acoustic/ horizontal way as in the video?
@jankafka7330 A classical guitar. Obviously I meant a steel string acoustic. No one calls a nylon acoustic an acoustic, they say classical or nylon guitar...
They are shown sideways in this video compared to how you may be used to seeing them drawn. Normally the open strings are shown on the top, with the string going down. The diagram normally looks like this; 6 5 4 3 2 1 | | | | | | What you are seeing in this video is a sideways representation of the chord diagram so it looks like this instead; 1 ----- 2 ----- 3 ----- 4 ----- 5 ----- 6 ----- Hope this helps clear up any confusion!
Sir, I am 73 years old. I was hoping if I could try your being one of your Patreon. I can belong has more benefits. Please let me try. I've been trying to lof in, but giving my password several times seems not giving satisfaction to whoever is requiring me at your end, because the answer is always " wrong password". If they have to send me code to my recovery email address, there isnt any code coming. How we can solve this. Sir? I just want to try. Its seem fun as I can see at your utube. May I try?

These are the beautiful methods and notes.
One can savor each note before the next note washes it away.
For everyone complaining about the chord diagrams…..now you know what it’s like to be left handed so figure it out
am little confusing about the chord diagrams, until I find it :)
It is insane for left-handed people to reverse the guitar. The left hand does most of the work. God I wish I was left-handed.
@@ggeorge4144 they say God made a few good people and the rest were right handed
Love it when Marco does videos for the classical guitar....❤

Not too late! I just turned 85 and have been playing for years, now just a few minutes each day to relax.

@@richjohn11Im having trouble with playing the C chord but I’m determined to get better! Good luck!

Love this lesson. Thanks Marco
I got this down in a week or so.. Great teaching Marco..Big breakthrough for me..Beyond 1,4. 5...Finally..
For majority of this piece, you can use finger 2 as a guide, and just slide down and up.
Excellent lesson - beautiful playing!
I love this simple peace. I shall practice it for sure on my classical. Great demonstration and guidance. Thank you. Cheers.
Excellent intro to clsssical guitar progressions and picking patterens, which I am experimenting with..Great lesson. Will be watching more
Excellent video. Your videos are very helpful. Thank you for sharing.
私もクラシックギターが大好きです。優しくて暖かい音色☺︎

Classical beginner here, i'm not seeing the recommended "45 degree angle for the guitar" is that important.
Very valuable lesson, and very beautiful piece
Thank you for the lesson. What's the name of the piece?
Again, Great Guitar Lesson Marco
you are Very Talented and explain everything with patience and clarity. Very Much Appreciated.
Just loving it. As I was believe music is the language of the soul.

You are apparently a beginner in the English language as well.
@@TheRealJanKafkado you have a life besides consistently commenting on people's posts being a jerk?
Just curious. You act like a liberal.
Lovely,I am inspired.Thank you for sharing.
Can't use Ring Finger due to accident damage to Tendon . Any suggestions would be welcome . [On the right hand by the way]
You could try using the pinky where you would use the ring finger.

just make this stuff available, don't hide it behind patreaon
Marco cirillo can you please make a video on how to play a kompa song
Nice. sounds familiar... moonlight sonata kinda familiar.
Doesn’t classical guitar/pieces require a different seating/holding position? Or is it ok to hold it like the acoustic/ horizontal way as in the video?
It's OK to hold it normal
Thank you much!
Would love to hear this on acoustic.
What do you think he is playing?
@jankafka7330 A classical guitar. Obviously I meant a steel string acoustic. No one calls a nylon acoustic an acoustic, they say classical or nylon guitar...
Thank you that was beautiful. What brand of guitar are you using? Is that 3/4 size? Thanks!
The guitar is identified in the video description. You don't even have to pay $5 to read it.
I love you marco
What’s the name of the song?
What is it called?
What is this piece called?
If he just told you, you'd be able to Google it and he wouldn't be able to scum you for the knowledge.
But what’s the name of the piece?
What is the title of this song?
The title of this song is a series of words in a specific sequence so you will know what to call it.
dont forget to manicure your nails like you are in interview with a vampire... its the secret to the sound... lol.
Great lesson, too bad if you cannot figure out the finger placement on the video and match it up with his version of a chord chart😂
can you provide the name of the song
Whats with the diagrams??
They are diagrams of the chord fingerings. What is your problem with them?
They are shown sideways in this video compared to how you may be used to seeing them drawn.
Normally the open strings are shown on the top, with the string going down. The diagram normally looks like this;
6 5 4 3 2 1
| | | | | |
What you are seeing in this video is a sideways representation of the chord diagram so it looks like this instead;
1 -----
2 -----
3 -----
4 -----
5 -----
6 -----
Hope this helps clear up any confusion!
❤❤❤
Name of the piece?
cool!

Hai...my bro teach me slowly lesson classical gitar i from Indonesian give me step by step u mentor for me
your chord diagram look confusing.
⛰️🎸
sorry but all your dagrams for the chords were written wrong, revise them,
The chord diagrams are all exactly correct.
This man just trying to help us all and apparently you too and somebody always got something negative to say and the diagram is correct
I'm assuming his diagrams are correct but I've never seen them written that way. Very confusing.
The chord tabs are shown horizontally, rather than the more typical vertical tabs, but they look fine to me.
Sounds like you don’t know how to play guitar at all. These are correct.
Nice vid, but I'm not paying $5/month just to get some tabs for a practice piece that sounds like scales.
If it "sounds like scales" to you, you don't know what scales are.
Thank you
song name??
