@@robe.4841 Hey Robert, thanks for the message, great to hear you’re learning the arrangement! (UA-cam video when??🙌) Apologies for the confusion with the tempo there, in the monthly rush to deadline I appear to have botched that slightly! It is pretty much 94bpm but the indication on the music should read “eighth note (quaver) = 94bpm”. Alternatively you can count it in dotted half notes (dotted crotchets) with the metronome set to approx 31bpm - this will give you a more accurate feel for the pulse of the 6/8 / 12/8 time signature. I’d recommend starting with the 94bpm metronome marking to help regulate your eighth notes when passing through the dotted rhythms, and then once clean switching out to the 31bpm tempo on your metronome and putting your focus more onto feeling the dotted quarter note (dotted crotchet) pulse beats of the time signature. Hope that all helps Robert! Look forward to hearing it!:0) 🎸🎶

Thank you! Yes this helps tremendously! 👍🏼 I will do my best and post a recording hopefully around Christmas time!

@@robe.4841 Fantastic! Good luck Robert!

Thanks for the kind words Alejandro!

This is regarding Cross String Articulation grade 5 study piece

@@ruwanfernandoyamahaguitarc8443 thanks for your comment Ruwan. I’ve only ever taught from the Trinity syllabus so don’t have access to any materials outside of that, not sure I’ve heard of uwl before?

@@DeclanZapala mentioned your name on it Study pieces of London college of music(university of west London)classical guitar books

@@ruwanfernandoyamahaguitarc8443 oh my bad! I only knew it as LCM when I got commissioned to do it a while back! There are hopefully going to be a suite of accompanying videos at some point so keep an eye out for those! As for the "tap strings with i m a" direction, if you tap the three treble strings with i m a so that your i finger lands on string G, m finger lands on string B, and a finger lands on string E (all at once!) it prepares the fingers to then play the following 3 cross-string descending notes. You're essentially planting ima on the strings but trying to make a tap sound as you do it. Hope that makes sense!:0)

Great meeting you too John! See you around soon I’m sure!

Just need to be able to throw a ball properly and we’ll be the full article!😅

True story.

Thanks for the kind words Antoine, and I agree it’s always someone’s first time hearing this music. The UA-cam algorithm favours new content these days so we need to keep putting videos of this music out there in order for it to be heard. And on the topic of certain pieces being overplayed, I think if a few people do perceive something as being overplayed I’d take that over it not being played at all!

@@DeclanZapala Always remember that if someone claims a piece is "over played".....THAT means IT IS an 'audience favourite. And we all know that if something is an audience favourite, performers just play it MORE. :) NO different than "Dueling Banjos" or "Foggy Mountain Breakdown" on the banjo or "Ashoken Farewell" on the violin / fiddle. Keep up the good work. :). Antoine

Thanks so much Michelle, I was lucky enough to spend a day with Dyens back around 2010 (can’t remember the exact year now), and it has stuck with me ever since. He was an inspiration.

Thanks Marco! Glad you like it! I plan to publish a book of my arrangements at the end of this year but if you can't wait that long my arrangement actually appeared in Guitar Techniques Magazine issue GT329 which you can access on their app (search for Guitar Techniques in your smartphone or tablet's app store). It costs about £4 to unlock each issue but that gets you access to the full dots and tab for this as well as a load of other jazz, rock, and blues stuff to noodle around with! Hope that all makes sense Marco! Cheers!

I’m with you on that - sadly a deadline got the better of me this time - these go out on GT Mag each month so its always a bit frantic getting it all written and learned in time for a pre-deadline recording! Definitely planning to do a re-record of this at some point later down the line so thanks for reaffirming my desire to do so! Cheers!👍

🤣🤣🤣 Sorry to disappoint but I’m actually using a Gitano leg rest to prop the guitar up - that in combination with some anti-slip mat over my legs means the guitar stays propped up without any effort from me!:0)

Guitar solo significa per chitarra solista, cioè non è un organico cameristico

@@simoneperri9072 ok..questione di terminologia..guitar solo.... si può intendere quando la chitarra da sola suona più parti...saluti
