Nice one, Badford 👏! I'm glad you took mine and other viewer's suggestion to make the entire opus into one video! It flows so nicely to hear everything in a row! I listened to the entire video though the app on my Blu Ray player while making dinner, so my Mom and Grandmother also listened. I let all 3 ads play. Then I logged in to my laptop to comment and listened to the entire video again (no mid roll ads either time, hooray! 😁)
Thanks. Got the book. This completes the perfect format -- PDF to buy/follow, videos per study, and now this complete playthrough of them all in sequence. I am also playing it to listen to while I work -- I had listened to these over the years, but they were usually partially represented and mixed in with other works on the disc.
Found your website a year ago when a sudden and unexpected need for me to learn to play the ukulele for a work event led me to dust off my guitar with frayed and rusty strings that hadn't seen the light of day in 15 years. Your free lessons and book had me hooked. I think I stayed up many nights for a couple of weeks devouring the pages. I eventually got your Vol. 2, then switched back to ukulele when I found Ukulele Corner's classical arrangements. Now that I got Sor's Nos. 1, 2, and 3 learned on ukulele, I really need to switch back to guitar! The uke versions sound so quaint next to the guitar! 😂
A wonderful performance. Very musical. I have enjoyed your lessons and I must say you practice what you teach at a beautiful level. Thanks for playing all 25 Sor studies in succession
Sor is my absolute favorite . This guitar work is perfect. I bookmarked it. I am not as accurate as this gentleman, but have a unique approach. I play outside, in the woods. Search Daniel Hake classical guitar. I do several Sor pieces.
thank you for putting the studies together. Very cool thanks, I am up to Study No 6, and have been using your 1 piece at a time.. I am going to be going through your lesson plan, and graded books. Again thank you.
such excellent job to put the 25 pieces together which makes it easy to convert to mp3 then i can put on ear whole day, like it so much, thank you, you are champion.
Thank you so much for this collection! I have been wanting to learn this and opus 35 for some time, I’ve started with the easier of opus 60 and a couple of opus 35 but this will be invaluable help, together with your guidance on the individual studies you posted earlier, to complete this opus. Any plan to do the same for opus 35? 😃 So many beautiful studies there too! Thank you ☺️
Thanks for posting this. It's been couple of months since I started learning CG, mainly following your first book. I am trying to add a bit more to my daily practice and I am wondering if this study is a good place for the beginner to add. I spend about 30 min to an hour every weekday and about 1.5 hr to 2 hr on weekend going over C (one octave) and G (two octaves from your video) major scales and going over a few pieces from your first book for the purpose of right hand exercise (like those with p-i-m-a patterns) and two previous pieces for keeping getting them better and one new piece to learn. I can play "Flow Gently, Sweet Afton" comfortably at a bit slow tempo. I have also tried to add Giuliani 120 Studies but I am making very slow progress since I am finding myself not relaxed enough for even 1 and 2, causing some wrist pain. Thank you!
Hey, I've heard several times that Sor used to play without nails... I'm wondering if there is any document in which he explains his technique because i'm trying to play without nails but it just sounds awful and i have the feeling that it's mostly a technique thing, but idk. In case that there isn't any Book by Sor on no-nail technique, i think any book explaining it would be great to me. This pieces sound beautiful by the way (your execution); I wonder how did it sound when Sor played, I can't believe how different the sound (and the feeling) is without and with nails
I don't think there is a huge difference in the technique. I have friends/colleagues that play without nails and they sound lovely. It's just a bit warmer and less crisp.
You need to press down more, also, use justified strings or aquila nylgut, or even real gut. There is no difference in technique, apart from the fact that Sor placed his fourth finger on the soundboard. Look into lute technique as it is essentially the same.
I happen to have, Julio, Salvador, Sagreras Books 1 through 6. Which I'm finding very cool. I am in Book 1 and Parts of Book 2. Just want to improve my playing adn the endless journey into guitar and music thanks

Bought your book and am working through these studies. Thanks for the high quality videos and lessons! From a fellow British Columbian 🇨🇦
Thanks so much Derek! I really appreciate it!

Next is Sor op. 31 and 35.
I'm still on your first book. I can't wait until I can read and play pieces like this. Very beautifully performed. Thank you.

thank you for all this hard work, then posting it for free. you sound fantastic.
Glad you enjoy it!
Tack!

Uke Corner is great, do you know about Simon's Classical Guitar Corner site?
Beautifully played! Been practicing Study no 3 for a while now, it's a great right hand practice.
Things start to get interesting in no. 7
A wonderful performance. Very musical. I have enjoyed your lessons and I must say you practice what you teach at a beautiful level. Thanks for playing all 25 Sor studies in succession
I bought the book, thanks for the play accompaniment
Great, see the video list under the book info as I have lessons on each piece as well.

"icing on the cake"! ... super addition to an already remarkable bundle! ...thanks
Thanks, I had some requests to put all of them into one video.
Your work and performance is very inspiring.
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
Very good technique and tone. Well done.
Thanks for listening!
This is great, I have the music in front of me following note for note, watching both hands, getting the feel of everything. How much do I owe you.
Good to hear, yes just following along with the score is actually great practice.
Thanks, is great to have them this way for practice time.
Thanks, of course I also have lessons for each one at the book page.
Grazie mille. Thank you. Perfetto.
Thanks for watching.
Op60. No5 is my fav.
Thanks, a great addition!
Glad you like it!

So many beautiful studies there too! Thank you ☺️
I think the next etude collection will be Carcassi's Op.60 or Regondi if I can get the manuscripts but Sor Op.35 could be in the future.
Very nice guitar sound. Is it cedar ? Well played too. Thanks.
Yes, it is, you can find all my gear info here: www.thisisclassicalguitar.com/classical-guitar-store-reviews/
Marvellous !
Thanks so much!

I would just stick to my Vol.1 and 2 methods before trying anything like these studies. Plenty to work on for now.
Bravo!!
Thank you!

Ya, the Sagreras is good!
Beautiful. I have about 2/3 of these memorized...but, they don't quite sound as nice as yours! : )
I wish I had your right hand technique
Where can I get the notations?
There is a link in the description. of the video or go here: www.thisisclassicalguitar.com/25-progressive-studies-op60-fernando-sor/
