Anyone here play guitar? (classical) If so, do you play anything by Francisco Tarrega? I think he's pretty great!

I am only up to simple pieces by Sor. It is a very difficult instrument to play.

Perhaps because you keep trying to rap while playing it?

Yeah, Tarrega is great. I basically cut my teeth on his works, and I know a good many of them. I would say his Danza Mora and his Capricho Arabe are two of my favorites to play. His Recuerdos de la Alhambra is classic.

I do classical guitar and have to agree that "Recuerdos de la Alhambra" is THE piece to play. The thing I find odd with classical guitar is that I have electric guitars, steel strung, twelve string and all manner of electronic music stuff but I always find it's the classical guitar I pick up and play. You can't beat it.

hes good for beginner guitarists, most his pieces are fairly easy.
prelude in e is a good starting song for classical guitarists it sounds good easy to play and chicks think your dope.

I know EXACTLY what you mean, I'm always doing that 😛

It might be because you literally can just pick it up and play, unlike electric where you might be messing about with amp settings and tunings!
