Who was Dragonetti and what did he actually write?

[@guitarhero5080]

Thanks for the shout out Jason and I love this video! Please do more of these! Maybe on Bottesini and Sperger? Would be so cool to have Gar Karr here as well!:)

You bet, man! I hope you're doing well--I miss you! It was so cool to see your video at the top of search when I typed in "Dragonetti Concerto." You rock, Aaron!

This is great! I've been interested in learning these, and this came just at the right time. Thanks Jason.

[@doublebasshq]

That’s great, Dan! I love these pieces and Bob’s new edition. They’re such fun to work on!

[@irissagar1080]

I've actually been doing these waltzes all year with my prof instead of regular etudes and even writing a paper of Dragonetti's left-hand technique! There are some pretty whacky descriptions of his use of the thumb in particular. These pieces have been great for learning ornamentation and interpretation, I hope they become more standard repertoire :) I'll have to check out this edition!

[@doublebasshq]

That’s awesome! I’d love to check out your paper when you’re done with it! 😀

[@irissagar1080]
