Hello Beatrix, thank you for playing my piece! Did I hear you say that it's a French song? Well, it isn't. but it has been played by a few famous French guitarists among others since I wrote it over 30 years ago... All my best wishes, Maria

Thank you so much for these pieces. I’m 74 and my hands can’t do what they use to I’ll be playing Vals(I’m a newbie with classical) on my 57 year old classical that I bought in high school. Back then I didn’t know the difference between a classical and a folk guitar. I’m sure glad I kept it. It sounds heavenly with the aged wood.

Beatrix, here in Australia I sit weeping at my desk as I listen to you play these beautiful pieces so exquisitely. I am 56 years old and received my first guitar when I was 13. I fell in love with it back then as I taught myself from a beginner level classical guitar book. I have not played for decades and thought I may have lost my musical spirit, but I recently bought a beautiful new guitar and you have inspired me to begin again. Thank you. ❤🎶

Some pieces I like - early to late intermediate that I still enjoy playing many years later because they are so beautifully written; the form of each is very well balanced. 1. Pagina de radio & Verde Alma - Maximo-Diego Pujol 2. Maxixe - João Pernambuco 3. El Negrito, El Marabino, and Vals Venezolano 2 - Antonio Lauro 4. Val en re mayor (Drop-D) - Francisco Tárrega 5. Pepita & Rosita (2 Polkas/Drop-D) - Francisco Tárrega 6. Sonatina Estudios 1-8 - Julio Sagreras 7. Tango (Drop-D & G) - Francisco Tárrega 8. El Columpio (Drop-D) - Francisco Tárrega 9. Sonatine, Op. 71 (The Rondo is especially magnificent) - Mauro Giuliani 10. Vals Solano & Campanillas - Eythor Thorlaksson Their is no order of difficulty here.

Hey there, Beatrix! I love watching your videos because they inspire me to keep practicing. I was a guitar major all through undergraduate and graduate school, but shortly after had given up playing. That was 40 years ago. The great news is... I was back practicing at least 4 hours a day this past year and loving it! Naturally, I had lost a lot of technique... so I work a lot on hammer-ons and pull-offs (mostly left hand) in order to gain strength and endurance. Thankfully, it seems to be working! I am now able to handle grade 6 pieces with moderate success. I just love playing again... my ultimate goal is to play at nursing homes and local events once retired (in a couple of years). If I continue making the excellent progress I have been, this will be very doable. Thank you for all the inspiration and all your beautiful playing! I enjoy all your uploads!

But it really brought out some wonderful sounds and moments for me. Quite nice. Thanks. I'll be improvising with some other pieces too, if you don't mind too much.

Hey, the only hard rule in music (that arguably isn't talked about enough) is that if it sounds good, then it is good. Coming from a bedroom metalhead trying to expand his technical repertoire (well, I'd hardly call it a "repertoire" right now), nothing wrong with adding your own flair to things, because at the end of the day we pursue this hobby for enjoyment, be it our own or that of others, so if that involves breaking the conventions of a genre, then so be it.

Bartolome Calatayud is amazing foe beginners. I bought a guitar book from his pieces graded from easy to difficult...allegedly, and I'm in love with it. 90% of the easy pieces are very melodic instead of the noisy show off of the modern guitar masters of the moment. "Easy" one to learn that is beautiful is called NOSTALGIA.

Thank you for this very helpful video - really useful to me as a guitar teacher! I was so impressed by Kurpie Etude when I came across it in the Trinity syllabus that I contacted Tatiana, and she sent me a friendly reply (thanks Tatiana!). Another set of very simple and effective beginners' pieces is the five Hugh Christie Pieces by Geoffrey Twigg, originally published in the Guildhall syllabus (before it was merged with Trinity), and I think later published by William Elkin. Number 5 is my favourite. Also, I wanted to say how nice it was to see you playing in front of the Lánchíd (I think?) that spans the river between Buda and Pest 🙂

Hi Beatrix! I really love your channel. You're very pedagogical and I also like your playing very much! When it comes to recommendations for easy to intermediate-level pieces, "Sempre solo" and "Souvenir" by Maria Linnemann are also wonderful. Those two, as well as "Canzone d'amore", are all extracts from her beautiful "Suite for Lovers", and the three pieces can very well be played as a suite (I like doing that! Sempre solo - Canzone d'amore - Souvenir, in that order). As to making the melody stand out from the accompaniment, "Souvenir" is a very good example and exercise. It's all just eighth notes, but because of some being in the melody and others in the accompaniment, it sounds much more sophisticated than it is. Keep up your great work, Beatrix, you're very inspiring! Warm greetings from Belgium, Anja.

Heitor Villa Lobos, Etude n°1 It a very challenging piece to properly play (it's very fast). But it's an amazing base to work on your arpegio since the piece only have like 10 chords to learn and the arpegio never change. You don't even need to learn them all, just alternate the first two again and again. And even if you play it very slowly, it's absolutly gorgeous. It's also very efficient to work on your dynamics.

I would recommend Skye Boat Song arranged by David Russell. It's a beautiful traditional piece, but it's also the theme song for Outlander, so you might get some fans that recognize it when you play in front of people. I just like the way the melody is so simple but because it jumps all over the fingerboard it gives an interesting playing aspect.

So, oddly, 'Tears in the Rain' by Joe Satriani, an acoustic piece by the instrumental rock guitarist. What I like about this is the great use of anchor points, movable shapes, pivot points, and fretted-open string arpeggios. A great beginner+ piece. Also 'Fandanguillo' by Moreno-Torroba - made me really think about WHERE I voice phrases - I probably changed how I play this three or four time. I bumped into your channel by chance as it actually turned up while I was searching for stuff on wood-turning. THUMBS UP!!!

20 yrs ago I played classical guitar as a beginner and was in a classical guitar ensemble my senior year in high school. That first song was one of the songs I learned. Brings back good memories. I feel like it’s too late to learn classical guitar again now at 36. I haven’t played since then. 😓

Hi Beatrix, I loved the wonderful simplicity and enchanting melody of the Vals, and.....as a beginner, I could approach it with great confidence. I am a great lover of Bach. I would be ever so appreciative if you could recommend a beginning level piece by Bach, if there exists such a thing! Also, I would love to hear you play anything by him. Thank you for your beautiful work and energy.

I recommend Andantino, Op. 241, No. 5 by Ferdinando Carulli. The opening picking pattern is reminiscent of the popular Beatles tune “Blackbird” that Paul McCartney played on acoustic guitar. Your book “Top 11 Exercises” is excellent!

Wow, this video is amazing! 🎸 The pieces you introduce are all great and suitable for all skill levels. I really appreciate how you explain each technique and playing style in detail. I’m especially impressed with ‘Nightfall’ and ‘Flamenco Piece’ - they sound mesmerizing! Thank you for sharing these wonderful pieces. I will definitely try to practice them. Looking forward to your next videos! 🎶

It’s not a classical song but one that started making me feel like I was progressing is the intro to Love Song by Tesla. Hope that helps someone! My family still requests it to this day.

Nightfall Panteleimon Michaeloudis. Really enjoyed the bass notes and how you varied the intensity. I really liked the ending with its slowing down and just the dynamics. It really caught my ear far more than any of the other pieces.

Little Romance by Luise Walker. Low-intermediate but not short, with development, very romantic, different technics (simple but impressive for the listener), many possibilities of personalization/interpretation. Love this one!

Thank You Beatrix. I was looking for something new to play. I've been becoming more dissatisfied with popular music and classical music is appealing to me more and more.

Yes!!! I got so excited hearing you mention Calatayud. I rarely ever see his name come up in the classical guitar world, but his music is so pretty and accessible. His Suite Antigua (all 3 movements) is very beautiful, and not too challenging. A few years ago, I got a Spanish guitar book that was filled with his repertoire, and unfortunately for me at the time the book didn't include tabs 😂 so I have Calatayud to thank for forcing me to learn how to read standard notation for guitar lol

Hi, thanks for this helpful and beautiful video. Maria Linnemann's Desiree was one of the first pieces that I was able to play well because it was easy but beautiful enough to make me really put in the effort. I also am loving Leo Brouwer's Études Simples. I'm a professional organist and I'm learning classical guitar for fun.
