schubert...I do not think that she is actually playing it. Recuerdos is a challenging piece to perform (well) on a classical guitar. It takes time to learn it on the level of the beginner, more time to learn it on the intermediate level, years to learn it on advance level and many devoted years to master it. The piece is hard because of left hand position which is not easy and right hand tremolo technique which is challenging classical guitar technique for many classical guitarists. In tremolo one plays bass notes with the thumb followed by three (or two depending on the chosen technique) repeated higher notes, plucked with the ring, middle and index finger. Although you must not move your right hand but fingers only, you can see that fingers are dancing at the player that actually performs the tremolo.

Jazz for aficionados
I'm going to review records in my collection, and you'll be able to decide if they're worthy of your collection. These records are what I consider "must haves" for any jazz aficionado, and would be found in their collections. I wont review any record that's not on CD, nor will I review any record if the CD is markedly inferior. Fortunately, I only found 1 case where the CD was markedly inferior to the record.
Our first album is "Moanin" by Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers. We have Lee Morgan , trumpet; Benney Golson, tenor sax; Bobby Timmons, piano; Jymie merrit, bass; Art Blakey, drums.
The title tune "Moanin" is by Bobby Timmons, it conveys the emotion of the title like no other tune I've ever heard, even better than any words could ever convey. This music pictures a person whose down to his last nickel, and all he can do is "moan".
"Along Came Betty" is a tune by Benny Golson, it reminds me of a Betty I once knew. She was gorgeous with a jazzy personality, and she moved smooth and easy, just like this tune. Somebody find me a time machine! Maybe you knew a Betty.
While the rest of the music is just fine, those are my favorite tunes. Why don't you share your, "must have" jazz albums with us.
Enjoy the music.

Mary Jo, I tired them all, and they opened. Must be a Balkans thing. I am probably under age.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJh_B6xcFuA Cheers |
O10, not south side, more downtown Chicago I guess. This was my introduction to Jamal six decades ago and I still enjoy it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7Sktqhz6GI&list=PLr94Z3tn0F9uUCeLR3FwEQ6Np4iW71TKo |
