Sustaining Notes on the Classical Guitar
Many beginner classical guitarists struggle to make their playing sing. Their playing sounds jumpy, and this is often because they are thinking one note at a time and not about longer phrases. By thinking about sustain when we play, we can create beautiful phrases which really help to create a melody that sings.

Lesson: Barre Chords for the Classical Guitar
Переглядів 10 тис.2 роки тому
Playing barre chords on the classical guitar can be a major obstacle for many beginners. Many people believe they require a lot of strength, and that we need to press very hard with our first finger. However, the opposite is true. We need to stay relaxed so that we can be accurate with our finger placement. It is also important so we can play other melodic material or anything else that is unde...
How to Read Music for the Classical Guitar

Note reading on the classical guitar is an important skill for any beginners guitarist. Learning to read music is an important skill for any musician, but for many musicians, reading is very difficult and time-consuming. We're constantly having to stop and work out the notes, and when we do that, not only do we find it difficult to play the notes, we're all unable to think of other things like ...

    Great thanks. I am not a classical guitarists but on the side I have been learning Bourree in e minor. A nice rhythmically uncomplicated piece I can work out a bar at time. I am here because I wanted to know how to heck to dampen a note so they aren't ringing out all over the place. Now I know there are two types of thumb strokes - a rest stroke and a free stroke. Now I need to take it to the next step and learn to execute a desirable rest stroke and free stroke. Thanks.

    On the road to good barre technique, this is step 1. Maybe it goes without saying, but I'd like your take on the following: Step 0 should be to make sure your guitar is setup properly! So many beginner guitars have too high an action, both at the nut (fret 0) and at fret 12 (from too high a saddle). And most beginners aren't going to go to a luthier (at least not right away) to have the guitar properly setup. The closeups in your video look like your guitar has a pretty low action, making it inherently easier to do a proper barre without buzze (pun intended).

  • @mad-scientist6027

    Placing all my fingers close to the frets doesn't seem to help man, I have to apply massive force to avoid muting. I even start struggling with open chords due to exhaustion. It's not like I haven't played barre chords before, but it was easy on electric. Why is it so hard?

  • @davehumphreys1725
    @davehumphreys1725 Рік тому

    Thanks for the video. However, a problem that I have been struggling with.... for 45 years...... is this. I can lay my index finger flat across all 6 strings, apply a little pressure, and get a reasonable sound from each string. Obviously, it gets a little harder further up the neck. BUT, as soon as I place ANY other finger down, my index finger gets pulled out of position, and the chord breaks down. Another problem is that the G-string INVARIABLY ends up right under the middle crease of my finger and the resulting note sounds dead or I get the inevitable buzzing.

    One note, like C, can be played in several position, so I like tab better since it clearly tells me which string and fret to play this note.

    • @hunkeychunkey

      When you learn where all the notes are, you won’t need tabs to tell you which one to play

      You don't need to change them very often, but after a while they will start to lose their colour and sound, and after a very long time they will start to become quite damaged - so probably best to change them one day.
