Canzone d'Amore - Classical Guitar

Hi friends! :waving_hand: I hope that after my speed/visualisation thread you wouldn’t expect something like Mozart’s Rondo’ alla Turca …please trust me this is already insanely fast for me :joy::joy::joy:
Nevermind those few unclean notes and…just ooops a couple more of things :face_with_hand_over_mouth: I’ve got so much to tell about the learning process that I prefer to keep it for my LL update. What I want to say is that I’m quite happy with myself for how it is going and the development made.

This is a piece from German contemporary composer Maria Linnemann and…aww…I love this piece! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::heart_eyes::heart_with_arrow:

Thanks for listening, I hope you’ll enjoy it!

Quite beautiful, Silvia. Sounded wonderful and watching your fingers flow over the fretboard in such a fluid relaxed fashion is a treat in itself.

Very nice Silvia. Your transitioning from the lower to higher frets was as David put it in a Fluid and Relaxed fashion. You have great finger independence something that doesn’t come easily. Your hours of practice are paying off

That was lovely Silvia, have to agreed with the first two comments. Mesmerising to watch your fingers deft move across that wide neck with ease, let alone the picking hand. Chapeau, beuatiful.

It’s not about speed, Silvia, not in all cases, at least; more about the sound and feeling, especially with such a beautiful song as you were kind enough to present to us. I know, there are many guitarists, and nor necessarily ‘shredders’ :wink: , who play extremely fast on a classical or acoustic guitar. I love to listen to musicians representing the genre known as ‘gypsy jazz’, and I often admire the speed they show even while playing difficult scales. Paco de Lucia was also known for his extraordinary speed on a nylon-string guitar. However, the classical guitar has its own rights, and there are many pieces written for that instrument in a moderate or slow tempo. Canzone d’Amore is a great example, and I love your rendition of the song.

Thats so nice and played with emotion. It was well done Sylvia :clap:

I was not expecting something that nice this morning, But thats why I enjoy the community so much. The piece was definitely trying to express some love or emotional feelings but there was some tension in parts of the tone. I could hear there were parts the the writer was expressing some hesitation maybe with the message. Lol :laughing: what do in know about german classical music. It did sound lovely coming through your guitar. Great job.

You playing has become so smooth and much more emotionally expressive over the last year. Its cool to watch and enjoy the growth of the different members of the communities. This is a beautiful accomplishment. Thank you for sharing with us.

Picked chord layer and melody blend nicely.

You’re doing quite well, Silvia! The only constructive feedback I can give is that it sounds like there are many places where you use a single finger to play repeated notes. I can’t tell from the video, because it’s not very high-res, but to my ears it sounds like that is what is happening. I would recommend trying to use alternating fingers wherever possible for a more legato sound.
