This is the best free classical guitar lesson I have ever encountered. Thank you so much. I hope your students realize how lucky they are.
It's somewhat easy to learn if you're just "playing the notes". But to master it and play it with dynamics and feeling is a totally different beast.
+Frank Seymour Indeed. That actual challenge with this piece is to get music out of those few notes and that is much harder than just playing it with correct notes. It is so easy to get guitar to sound thin and nasal especially accompanying parts.

I love this corner of the guitar universe. I love your delivery and your lessons. thank you!!
I only started classical guitar a few months ago. Covid Lockdown starter from the southern tip of Africa. I watched many classical guitar instruction videos. I am learning LáGrima now. I couldn't be happier to come across this video. You are SO well prepared. You know your theory. You know EXACTLY what you want to say and HOW to say it. Very calm and excellent explanations. I won't follow any other classical guitar instructors any more. Thank you very much.

Thanks
Thanks man
Very structured and logical approach to learning! Instaed of just memorizing fingerings and rhythm you really dive deep to point out the subtle keys to this piece. Big thumbs up!
Thank you so much for this video. Absolutely beautiful way of teaching a piece. Don't worry about the ones in the comments who say its "easy" and "talking too much". If they don't understand the beauty and passion with which you teach the piece, they obviously have no idea what classical music is and how it should be played.
I love this piece and you understand how to interpret it and teach with clarity how to play it.
What a Great in-depth Lesson! Thank you for taking the time to post. Purchased the workbook. This piece seems so simple on first blush but drawing out the true heart and soul of the piece is quit challenging. Your workbook and lesson in invaluable in starting to understand this piece....measure by measure
Wow-what a great tutorial - thanks - lots of tips that made my Lagrima sound so much better than I have been playing it for the last 20 years.
Just wanted to add to the constructive posts here in regards to the lesson. It's excellent - well planned and executed with great production value and lucid commentary. Too bad some offshore trolls are attacking your viewers. Don't let this discourage you from future posts. I imagine many are greatly appreciative of your efforts.
Wow, What a presentation !! that's excellent, you are a TRUE teacher.
What a tutorial! Thank you for posting this. As a beginner, I feel like I now a have a tool to really help me get into the pieces. Thanks again.
Great playing. Also it is simply awesome to hear your exposing the real depth in this piece by looking at all the elements. Thank you.
I forgot the name of the song, and I did a UA-cam search on "classical repertoire" and found your video. Thanks a million!
Excellent! An eye opener. Best lagrima tutorial video on youtube in my opinion. Thanks for posting!!
jaurous Very kind of you, thanks.
Totally agree with you!
Dr. Powis gets his points across clearly and succinctly with a
short example. It is by far the best instructional video I've seen on
the Internet on all subjects.
Simon's video lesson got me re-examine how I play Lágrima. He gave me some new ideas and made explicit somethings that I had been doing intuitively.
I purchased the workbook - very reasonably priced. Since, I've received a few additional lessons for free! - left and right hand technique and practice technique. They are what I've needed for awhile - my last lesson was many years ago with a long hiatus in playing; my technique in all areas has degenerated. The left hand technique lesson has already improved my playing.
Thank you.
Oh man!, this is amazing. Thank you very much!, you are a fantastic teacher thank you!. Blessings!. and i hope you had a fantastic year!.
This is one of four pieces for ABRSM grade 5 I'm doing. This video is invaluable for seeing how this should be played.
Very nice, thanks for taking time out of your life to do this!!!😀
Thank you so much for taking me for an other level of learning and understanding guitar and music all together as well. You are very good teacher. Please stay on tube and share with us your self :)
What a beautiful piece of music. You really played that piece so wonderfully with a solid color of lagrima.
Great work! This is helpful for me both as a player and teacher. I'm gonna try the idea of separating melody and bass with my students more now. :)
This is superb. It's so helpful to be so explicit. I struggled with this for months and made little progress and that was with a classical guitar teacher who mentioned nothing like this. It's as if he expected me to be able to play it by intuition. He did little more than show me where the notes were! Having watched this it makes me realise how poor my first three teachers were. I thought it was my fault even though I practised for 3 hours a day for 10 years. I understand everything in this lesson having misunderstood all of it before. It was as if I was asked to build a house with no tools or plans!
Good work mate! Very informative, has made me look at the piece with a completely different perspective than before. keep it up. I'm going to your website to check out the books.
I like that you provide detailed theory in the beginning. It is important. Serious approach.
Thank you - lovely presentation which helped me a great deal!
Thank you very much. I have a greater understanding of the piece and will definitely purchase the workbook. Thanks again.
Best guitar tutor on youtube by miles. Intelligent, musical and succinct. Thank you.
This is pure gold-dust to me. I'm self taught, don't read music but my enthusiasm is not lacking. I've managed to learn quite a few pieces to date, my favourite being Koyunbaba. But lagrima is one of my other faves. It's a beautiful piece with many aspects and I'm so glad to have discovered this video. Everything you say makes complete sense and is enormously helpful. I'm aware that this is a relatively simple piece, but strangely - it's the one piece that I have found very very difficult to do justice. I feel very clumsy when playing Lagrima, and I think you have touched upon my problems in this lesson and I can't wait to sit down with my guitar and apply your advice. You are a great teacher, you are very articulate and precise. I wasn't confused at any time while listening . Thank you very much for giving your time and experience for FREE !!
You guys really need to purchase the workbook. It does help tremendously!
Marvelous...I'm going to start learning right now, Your teaching is excellent. Thank you
I love this piece. I love the way you teach and the workbook is amazing.
Simon, I really appreciate this resource. I have a BA in classical guitar performance and I teach privately, but I will be subscribing to your teaching to help hold my own teaching accountable. Keep up the good work!
P.S. I found this because of your podcast.
This is the best teaching of Lagrima I’ve seen so far. Very well structured, explained, and demonstrated. Really appreciate it and thank you 🙏 for letting us learn it through your YT channel. So 👍. You are a great classical guitar teacher!
Thank you Terence for the nice words! I am so glad you like the channel and the teaching
Well said Terence!
I love classical music in guitar :) Thanks for sharing your knowledge to us
Yip.....good stuff. Well done, well presented, well played. Probably best guitar lesson I've ever found online.
Just wanted to leave a compliment to offset some of the ignorance of the comment section. Many are sure to recognize the level of competence exhibited in your videos. Kudos.
Thanks for the tutorials & I've now purchased your workbook for this piece.Having just got back into playing the guitar ,this site & your presentation and attention to detail are greatly appreciated .
Mean...
You place this piece so beautifully. Thanks
Excellent presentation. Based on it, I purchased the very reasonably priced workbook. This was my way to show my support for this free posting. Even more so, I have have benefited from the materials. They have enhanced my understanding of the piece.
+Frank Green Thanks Frank, I appreciate your support!
Fantastic teacher! I wish I were in NY to take lessons from him. Excellent instruction.
BOPilot5517 Thanks, but by the looks of your profile picture I think I would rather come to your corner of the world :)
great, great and once more great!!!
Great lesson! So helpful to me. Thanks for sharing!
Very good! You are a good teacher. I play and teach guitar also and your lesson is a very good guide for playing Lagrima. Thank you so much.
Hi Simon, please do more in depth guides like this for other songs, like Maria luisa for example. This ones really good, and there's lots of applicable lessons for how you approach playing pieces in general.
This helps a lot, so thank you for making this video
Excellent lesson. Very well analysed and explained, technique as well as interpretation. Shows how much thought and effort needs to be put in, in order to play well. I wonder though if playing the melody with rest stroke might not be a good idea.
Great video, I have learned something new although Lagrima was a part of my audition to musical school.
(Felt in love at 17:48 😊 )
Inspiration just listening to you present the piece!
Beautiful music. Beautifully presented. Gracias!
Thank you for the great lesson!
Extremely good teaching! Thanks
Love it. This is what im going to try to teach myself after work. (For a long time) :)
Terrific lesson! Thank you
This one of the pieces I was rehearsing when I did not have the time anymore to play the guitar ... 11 years ago..
My teacher played it ... but did not explain the 'composition' in all of the dimensions which are explained in this video.
And yes, experts will say it misses things or things can be explained in an other way.
I get motivated by this video to start practicing again.
Big thanks !!!
Very glad to hear, Jan! Happy practicing.
Thank you so much, You are a great teacher!
Great lesson - thank you! I love the way you de-constructed the piece - this was really useful..!
Hi! Thank you for this video class! By the way I am teaching this piece to my students, and many approaches that you show are also the ones I use in my class.
Wow amazing!! Subscribed!!
Enjoyed it,thank you!
What's wrong with people. 442 thumbs down? Really. I think its a very detailed and well-explained tutorial with lots of helpful info.
It is a great tutorial... but there is one glaring error... just like the note he tells you not to make stand out like a sore thumb. He calls the main note of the piece, the E... high E on measure 8 an accompaniment note... It is the tonic resolution note... so I was like, what? Also, not everyone understands that there are fine details to playing perfected classical guitar pieces
Fantastic teacher!!
now I understand more . Thank you so much
Very good lesson. I had already know how to play this piece but you explained it so well that i wanted to watch the whole video. It is very interesting the way you explain all the parts of the pie.ce
+Rennoly Grisnen Thanks very much Rennoly. I put a lot of thought into my lessons on ClassicalGuitarCorner.com so I am glad you found it useful! I will aim to make some more. Any requests?
I am learning a piece called xodó da baiana by Dilermando Reis I think it will be interesting to know what you think about this piece and which way we can approach this piece.
+Rennoly Grisnen Great composer! I try to stick with music in the public domain so I do not infringe copyright. Any older pieces?
What about choro da saudade by Agustín Barrios?
or another from Tárrega, like Isabel
You're so kind. Love form Korea!
great work,thanks
I like the lesson. Thanks a lot
Thanks for sharing that video Simon... it is amazing because I picked up the guitar just tonight and played that piece... as well as Adelita. They both share the E major E minor format. A comment was made about how easy it is to learn the piece, and when you start adding Dynamics and paying attention to your phrasing and utilizing all the colors that the guitar has to offer, then you are truly playing!! And I am in total agreement. That separates the amateur from the professional. And like you said the idea is to take the music and create your own interpretation and individualize how you approach the notes, and create something special and beautiful. The Lovers Concerto by Bach and the Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven are next on my list. Going to be a challenge... But well worth it. Thanks again for the insight... And Enjoy the holidays.
Hi Kevin, thanks for your thoughtful note. Yes, the fine detail in a piece is one of the beautiful aspects of our journey. Even though it can be challenging it provides a lot to explore.
So beautiful! 💗 dreaming about a classical guitar and hope to start learning this year. Although my acoustic guitar is so bulky, I find it easier to learn a ukulele.
Can you guys make a video comparing for example entry level yamaha guitars like c40, cg122c/s , and 142 and Cordoba guitars for beginners. I'd also watch reviews & demos of 3/4 & travel size guitars.
this is beautiful!!!!!!
hey bro i like this piece u nailed it,,thanks
thanks for the lesson! quick question: how can i move between two distant fingerings without unwanted open strings resonating? bar 7 for example, i understand that the open e string gives time to prepare barring of second fret, but in between, i get the open d and b strings resonating in between positions...
thanks!
You make this seem so easy.
Thank-you for your teaching video, it is very helpful to me.
+dkhanhvn You are very welcome, I am glad it was helpful. What lesson would you like next?
+Classical Guitar Corner May be Romance by Bartoli but if you have time, thanks again :)
Thank you, very much.
thanks for sharing. 😊
That guitar has a beautiful clear treble tone . Ive always been into electric guitars for the last 25 years and steel string accoustic . Playing heavy metal and grange like Nirvana . I was always under the impression that guitars that have nylon strings were for people starting out with guitars until they can go to steel strings . Only recently I learned that a nylon guitar is a classical guitar all on its own , and has nothing to do with people learning to play guitar . I cant believe I only learned about this after all these years . I really like classical guitar now and have a Yamaha nylon guitar. I would like to get a Cordoba Spanish guitar c3m and use that to get real good till I can get a Cordoba c7 which is even better in sustain and over all quality . To be honest I think I even like classical guitar better then steel string guitar as the sound makes it so therapeutic.
Amazing that this is free. So well done .
Good job sir.
Thanks I've grabbed the book....
Glad to hear, Priscilla! Hope you enjoy the book.
what a tutor and tutorial
I'm a huge rock guitar fan but this is just beautiful.
thank you man
Hello. Good job!
Thanks Simon I'm not there yet but one day soon.
Thanks for teaching the correct pronunciation.
Did you like our Choro or Chorinho ? Brazil for me has most increrible classic guitars pieces
You should list GENTE HUMILDE by GAROTO means humble people
VERY GOOD!
Wonderful
Hi, I think that it is enough to read a well-written text that Tarrega. Yours
WOW. Just a minute, while I burn my guitar. You are so good.Thank you.
Is there an app to tune classical guitar?..... thank you
any ideas on canario, with tab ta
thanks
the best
Hi,just came across you here on UA-cam,I wonder if you can help me with my grade 3 classical guitar exam.Will be able to teach skype lessons
Thanks
dude you're a really good teacher thank you. I found everything you said relevant and succinct. People who want more guitar! less talk! are never going to have the patience to learn classical songs properly :o)
Sam Lee Hi Sam, thanks so much for the kind words. I work hard to prepare the lesson in advance so I can communicate well, I am glad it worked for you.
Classical Guitar Corner I hate to break to you...but you lost at the beining because it's simply too long....if you have to show people how you played the fucken scale it's not going to help them...especially on a fucken guitar without inlays. god damn it. I hated retarded music teacher that has to complicate the living shot out of everything.
kim young Then get a god damn book, Idiot. You didn't pay a penny for this lesson. It's not his problem you're really stupid to realize it's valuable information.
Armando Urquidez There's other scales aside the major....such as the
Natural minor.
Harmonic minor
Major harmonics
Double harmonics minors
Melodic minors
You keep it simple and build triads/chords/mode using EVERY OTHER NOTE...and get back to me when you master the lesson Ive given you....
Stop calling the modes within those scale exotics scales or give them retarded names..
Learn them..bitch.
That's a total of 35 basic modes...
Donate the money to homeless children,....
Basic pentatonic..with the various option notes.
minor
R............b3..x..4...x..5..............b7..x...R
Major...
R...x....2....x....3............5...x...6.............R...
Get back to me when you can play it forward, back wards, upside down and inside out...
Again...don't be a dickhead. Donate the money to children that really needs help...
Armando Urquidez haha dude you're hilarious, good burns :o)
this other guy seems insanely angry but there's the outside chance he's a musical genius.. it's a tricky balancing act I'm sure.
78 thumbs down, that's how you weed out non talented people. great lessons!
정말 감사 합니다. 라그리마
