Andres Segovia – Bach Prelude Cell Suite 1

admin — Sat, 09 May 2009 06:19:53 +0000

Andres Segovia, was one of the most influential Classical Guitartist
of the 20th century. He really opened the door to developing
the classical guitar repertoire and he did that by commisioning
compsers and making his own transcriptions. This is one of my
favorite arrangements of Bach’s Prelude from the 1st Cello Suite.

Have Your At Least List

If you are serious about getting better as a musician and specifically a guitarist you’ve got to practice every day.

The only short cut is practicing every day.

However, sometimes life gets in the way and prevents you from putting in your 1, 2, or 3 hours of daily practice.

What is the solution for when something stops you from practicing your normal allotted practice time?
