Thanks!

[@davidjaggs]

Thanks, so kind!

[@snowfiresunwind]

This has to be one of the most beautifully played performances of this wonderful Barrios piece - the voice separation you achieved is immensely impressive.

[@davidjaggs]

So kind, thank you. 🙏😊

[@robchirico4794]

These lessons/discussions are a treasure. Thank you! There are actually 4 volumes in the original Stover series. In addition, he has published a new 2-volume edition with 132 pieces. I haven’t seen the new edition, so I don’t anything about new inclusions or differences. Thank you, again.

[@davidjaggs]

Thanks for the info! I'm old school so didn't know!

[@robblaikie5201]

Beautifully played and a great lesson. Just love the sound you make on that Hauser

[@davidjaggs]

Thanks for watching Phil. I can't take all the credit for that sound! HH had a lot to do with it!

[@jillyhoward4920]

Beautifully calming, really enjoy listening to your expertly arranged pieces. Even though I dont play myself I still really enjoy your playing. ❤️👏🌹

Fantastic lesson. I really appreciate the subtle distinctions you make, and the clear explanations of the thinking behind your musical decisions. Very helpful.

[@davidjaggs]

Nice to hear that, Paul. Thanks 👍

[@joelstauffer1950]

A most beautiful piece played exquisitely with Tone/Taste/Touch on a magnificent instrument! Wonderful sir! This is what we all aspire to...

Great playing and tutorial. It's a beautiful piece one of my favourites over the years. I was expecting a slide at about 0:28 but then later on you said you'd taken some out. I always felt this piece had a kind of swing to it. Great video 👍👍

[@davidjaggs]

Thanks for watching 👍 Hope you didn't mind the missing slides!!

[@birdman4274]

@@davidjaggs Not at all. You play how you wish it still sounds great. I think it's just that I'm used to the slides 👍

[@paulhennessey51]

Fantastic lesson. I really appreciate the subtle fine points you emphasize throughout, and the clear explanations of the thinking behind your musical decisions. Very helpful.

This is wonderful. Super helpful and inspirational. Your videos are a marvel. 🙏

Thanks 👍🙏🙂

[@nijwmzen29]

Barrios is my favourite composer. Such beautiful melodies, but technically so difficult, especially for the LH. Your lesson is going to help me a lot. Thank you.

[@davidjaggs]

I'm pleased to hear that! 😊👍

You should get a Toress in good shape and let us enjoy that too! I'll donate the first 5 £

[@davidjaggs]

Ok, you set up the crowd fund and if it only raises a tenner we'll just go for a beer!

[@Materva-hv6sz]

David I recently came upon an article from years ago about your skills as an arranger. Do you have any books or video series or online courses about the arranging process? There is so much for steel string players and arranging on KZbin, but not a lot of information about arranging with classical technique

[@davidjaggs]

Hi there, I haven't actually done anything like that. It's very much an instinctive thing I feel, also partly creative. I may have said that in the interview? I'd recommend a good knowledge of harmony, know about 1st and 2nd inversions, 9th chords, 3rds and 6ths, jazz too if possible, and lots of playing of other people's arrangements that you like. Try to hear in your head how you'd like it to sound before you start. I know none of that is very helpful, if you're really stuck drop me a line.

[@Materva-hv6sz]

No I appreciate your time and advice. Thanks@@davidjaggs

[@ClaudioPallone]

Fantastic lesson again. Brilliant. What strings do you use in your guitar (brand and tension)?

[@davidjaggs]

They're basically d'addario pro Arte medium with the exception of the g which is carbon. You can get them in hybrid half sets, snn-3b (basses) and hgn-3t.

[@userAA]

Nice playing & good tips! Meanwhile, I think it's about time I ask whether the poll you took a few months back about the pieces we like to hear on your Hauser was a prank. Because it seems you completely ignored us all...

[@davidjaggs]

Things take time! Actually Barrios was a suggestion.

[@userAA]

@@davidjaggs Surely, that's true. I had the impression that you like to prioritize the suggestion. Anyway, your answer was convincing. Good to hear it wasn't a prank!

[@davidjaggs]

@@userAA I don't prank my subscribers! They are important to me. Remind me of your suggestion. Was it Asturias?

[@davidjaggs]

Also bear in mind I've got a shed load of work to get through with this new book!

[@userAA]

@@davidjaggs I didn't know about your new book, so wish you all the best with it. Sure, that's a lot of pressure and I didn't mean to add to that. I actually had a lot of requests which included, Asturias, Alhambra, Préludes 2&3 by Lobos and Sonatina guitar by Berkeley. But now that I know how much you already have on your plate, I can be very patient and enjoy the pieces you upload from time to time. Cheers!
