This free video guitar lesson is for the beautiful fingerstyle guitar piece "Romance". It is very well known in the classical guitar world and is a great workout for using bar chords.
All of the video guitar lessons and TAB for this song can be found here: www.guitarlesso...
Take your time with the stretches, especially in the second half of the tune. Learn to adjust the pressure of the bar chord to be able to use as little pressure as possible in order for the notes to sound in the chord. As long as you are focused on minimal pressure it will eventually become second nature.
For the right hand, try and practice the arpeggio pattern by itself on open strings before adding the left hand. It is very important to get the prepared strokes down comfortably before putting the two hands together.
Have Fun with this beautiful piece!

THIS WAS THE FIRST SONG I LEARNED ON GUITAR AND I COULDN'T FIND IT TIL RIGHT NOW. I just randomly came across My Chemical Romance's songs, and the intro to one of their albums is a sample of this song... Immediately sounded familiar and I followed the crumbs to here... My god.
Cool!😊
This was my first classical piece 🎶
My first piece as well.
I'm here from the mcr one too lmao
Me too! First thing I heard that made me want to play. Mad 🤣
that barr chord at the 7th is a nightmare
Robert Crowther Ikr
I have found that if you hold the guitar that rock style way where the guitar is horizontal it's really difficult. I have been doing that for two years with electric and have gotten really good at barres on that and the Jimi Hendrix thumb over the neck thing. But now that i am getting into classical i do indeed realize that you have to hold it in that classical fashion to do the barres far down due to the way the classical guitar is built. Barres are generally easier if you hold the guitar in that classical fashion
small tip that worked for me for the barre chords of this piece: try moving your index finger a little up. Notice that when he barres his index is sticking out above the fret a little.
Omg this is my first song on guitar I'm crying
I thought I would never learn how to play
I'm getting there
Thank you so much!
Best feeling in the world

im 2 weeks in playing this song only, still trying to learn it. takes time
EDIT: I've finaly learned it, now just gotta practice it into perfection
+Freddy Olsen started this one yesterday, having problems with the bar chord part, I get this muted sound because my finger is not pressing hard enough, not sure how to get past this
Adro Nader i had exact same problem, what u can do is just bar the 3 lowest strings. (the string 456) it makes barley any difference
+Adro Nader (adro191) For every barre chord take a minute to figure out which strings you actually need. Sometimes a full barre is not necessary and will save you energy and make the chord much easier.
boogie3478 problem occurs when u are going to try to learn new songs, so many songs require you to be able to barre the chord
+boogie3478 I agree, dont bother barring the E string to make it into a B. Sounds the same, infact i think it sounds better.
This was one of the first songs I learned on guitar when I was 14. My first guitar was a classical my grandpa gave me, and he taught me this, forgot how to play the whole thing until I saw this, it came right back!
For anyone stuck on the bar chord, you have a second option. You can do a half-bar (which is way easier), and instead of playing the `E` as a bass note, play the `A` string, keeping the melody line the same. But be warned, this makes the transition to the seventh position bar harder. Hope this helped.
It took me forever to figure the second option out. But you’re right, it gets harder to transition. I guess I need to build more calluses
barre on the 7th frets and holding down the 11th fret with a pinkie, this is hell
lol that's so easy
@@Max-dr6rz well aren't you cool fuckwit
I could do that… my hand is tiny
@@Max-dr6rz nah uh

So, I bought a classical guitar and my dad gave me a classical guitar peice to learn. I decided to take a brake and look up somd classical guitar videos on your channel and I fing this video. Upon listening to you play it at thd beginning, I realized that ths piece you are playing in this video, is the exact same peice my father gave me. Small world huh?
Did you learn this song back then?
Sometimes for bar chords you have to build a callus on your left index finger as well as build the strength of that finger. For the part with the 5th fret barred if you can bar all the strings you can just bar the 1st 2nd and 3rd string with the index and play an open A note for the bass note. As for the Bar chord at the 7th fret you're gonna have to build your strength. I was surprised to see i couldnt barr the chords anymore. I've been playing too much heavy metal. Beautiful song though. Thanks for the lesson.
OMG THANK YOU
I was revisiting this song on my guitar and this 8 year old video popped up in my recommendation the day after. I am convinced that we are being recorded all the time.
I know this is an old post and you probably don't pay attention to it but I'll comment on it anyway. I've been a guitar player for over 45 years semi-professionally and this is one of the pieces I have played. I have seen this played over the years in so many different ways - it's like seeing a dish made in different ways. But you play it the "traditional" way. So many players spruce it up and fancy it up that it's like trying to put legs on a snake or gilding the lily: they put too much sugar on the cereal. I'm sure you know what I mean. Anyway, thanks for showing it the plain, simple way. Cheers, mate! John.
Hey, there is a link in this video's description that takes you to the page containing all the video lessons for this song as well as the TAB PDF that you can download. Have fun! Carl..
Thought I was a natural until I started to hit the bar chords....
man fuck the bars...
I'm assuming you're still in the beginner zone. Just keep practicing and eventually you'll get it! Good luck.

I bet you could do that now, it only took me 1 week to get used to bar chord. And im a fucking idiot when it comes to guitars
My guitar doesnt do that, sir.
Itty Bitty Titty Committee 😂😂
mine too
@@eriksatie8038 😂😂
Did your guitar gently weep
@@pranavrk9752 must be since it's feeling pity for me...😂
If you're finding it hard to do the barre chords and have tried a number of different things, consider a different guitar: 3/4 classical, electric, flamenco guitar, etc. It might make a difference.
Hi, I have just started playing again after 15 years, long story. I wanted to familiar myself with some tunes I used to sit and play. Romanza, Stairway etc. I love your youtube video lessons and have enjoyed some recall. My mechanical memory is slowly coming back, very slowly. Your videos are so easy to understand and visually great, as is your verbal tuition. Thank you so much.
PS I would love to see you do the same with Etude in E minor, but I know it's not a request show. Keep up the brilliant work.
Every single dam time I go to youtube and type in how to play a song 100% of the time Carl already did a tutorial on it
I really wasn't expecting this song on this channel but here it is... Dude you are awesome!! Keep up the great work
I was in the Army in 1987. Was stationed at ft Ord CA. This spc e-4 named Swabba showed me how to play this. i could fake it a little. i never new the name of the song or the artist. well i finally found it is a really old classical song named ‘Romanza’. Now i can continue learning it 🤣🎸😂👏 thank u!!!
Hey Carl, absolutely love your channel and have been supporting it for as long as I can remember first starting to play guitar. But anyhow, I was wondering if you could kindly create a "classical" guitar lessons playlist on your channel, it would be fantastic. While you only have a handful of classical lessons on your channel, including this one, that opens up room for suggestions, which you can then build off of that. I'm really glad to have you back man, keep up the guitar mastery! Thank you so much for being such an awesome guitar instructor. In my opinion, you're the best on UA-cam. Perhaps all around, haha.
I like that you start playing as soon as the videos begins. Good lesson and well explained
We called it "Jeux Interdits" in France because of the movie. It seems like it's a piece teached to a lot of beginner classical guitarist. I'm so happy to learn it ! Sounds magical !! Thanks Carl for your lessons
j’aime français 🇫🇷
For the bass note on the first two barre chord, you dont have to barre all of the string. You could just play the A string while barre-ing the GB & e string. As it is the same sound as the 5th fret of the E, G, B & e strings, therefore making it much easier for those with smaller hands or not strong enough hands to play it properly.
Thank you so much
love you!
I'm literally stuck on the bar chord, that's all. It's so frustrating :/ I need a new hand
SadBermuda
Push the guitar with your fretting arm towards your body when hitting a fret chord.
@@zain4019 The downside is when you push the guitar like that it makes it a bit out of tune when doing a Barre chord.
@@Max-dr6rz my fingers are not fat enough to play bar chords :(
My technique for bars is to push my elbow away from my body so my arm is as close to perpendicular to the guitar as I can, since I usually play with my elbow tucked in at the side. It stops me from trying to do the bar with the side of my finger and more with the softer part (can't think of what that part of the hand is called. Also, to practice bars, use your index finger like normal, but put pressure on your index finger with your middle finger until you get all the strings sounding right so you know how much pressure to put on. Also don't practice bars for too long because it can really hurt your wrist and make you want to avoid them as much as you can
Try sliding into the 12th fret thing with the pinky it makes moving to the bar on the 7th a lot easier
i used to know how to play half way of this song but it’s been years and i’m so happy to find and learn again
So awesome and nice...and you didn't even take one call or even even touch your phone during the whole lesson! THANKS SO MUCH!
thank you so much for this video. you made it so easy to follow along considering I'm a beginner!
I learned this 20 years ago when I was a lot younger and playing classical. I put the guitar down for a long long time and picked it up again about 8 months ago I STILL can't play the 7th fret bar chord. It is so very frustrating. I just can't get that note on the B string to sound good.
Try sitting in another way. And try and flatten out your finger. ;)
That B on the 7th fret is a SOB
I dont know why but this is quite easy to learn, but idk what makes that barre so hard for you guys, I only play bar chords to be honest 😁 I found the pick pattern annoying if anything
@@user-gt1kd1mh9l I agree I'm an electric guitar player
@@user-gt1kd1mh9l I am confused too i play guitar actively for 3 and a half months and can get the barre chord easily :D
Thank you really much it was really help full.. My only problem was the bar chord at 5 & 7 I really cant get them clear
The smoke on the water of classical guitar
Very nice Guitar 🎸 Lesson so far..
Indah Nya... Subhanallah..
Alhamdullilah Syukur...
Have been playing it wrong for 10 years! Thank you for the right version!
My picky finger hurts😭😭💔
I here by grant you sir a congressional medal of music bravicimo bravo you sir are a damn good teacher took me some time but i finally got it after quiting and coming back 6-50 times thank you sir sincerely some guy you may never know
I learned this piece when Frederick Noad taught classical guitar on PBS (New York) way back in the late 60's. Should be easy for me to get it back. Thanks for the refresher.
2 days in learning this as my first song. I’ll be back once I have mastered it.
Just discovered this now ... last day of my covid19 quarantine ... and learning some new cords
Thank you for this, bud
Cheers
the best romance i've heard ever. :'[ make me feel really sad
Heya. Thought I would share my thoughts as hopefully it will bring some joy like the rest. I first picked up a guitar nearly a week ago and I have been playing or practising plucking ever since (hence the painful fingers whilst I type xD). I was recommended this tune from some random person on the internet and came across this video. I'm only up to the first bar as we speak after two days, but this video has helped me out practising no end! It feels like I am progressing, nailing everything up to the bar after lots of repetative practise and alot of fails, and it is amazing. Sounds and feels so great. Thank you for this video! It is strengthening my fingers for other random plucking tunes and is just a great help. The dislikes can go do one, you're a great teacher for someone who wants to go it alone
my index finger is crooked and literally can't DO ANY BAR CORDS EVER. like it's not strong enough because it was broken when I was little. it's so frustrating because I'm fine with guitar , I'm really good ( not to be full of myself lol) if only I could barre :((
hi, what about now?
Break it back in to place! That will show true dedication to the guitar gods. (Not sarcasm guys.. really.) Plus that would be an awesome story, or maybe just try a smaller neck. Idk lol..
My fingers are all bent and it’s impossible for me to barre the whole fret and I’m so angry! I was learning the first part so easily until the barre chords. I’m frustrated ugh..
she knows how to spell barre that’s now i know she’s good
nothing sus about that
Is it really because you broke it? Try doing it with other fingers, it might just be strength problem
Thank you Sir. I knew saving that guitar for years was worth it. This theme had been in my mind since childhood. Always comes back when I think of Spain and Sheldon ever gave it the necessary attention until your easier methodology came into play. It would be a joy to finally able to interpret it on my own guitar. If I only know a piece of armonios guitar, let it be this one
I'm a beginner guitar player and this video is really helping me learn. I appreciate you making this video man!
As a total beginner I really can’t get my head around the first chord what you mean there
This guy is an amazing teacher
so far the best lesson....with free tab and notation....thanks brother.
The teaching method is very simple❤️❤️❤️thank you sir...🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰
Beautiful and easy to learn. Thank you very much.
you have the best guitar channel. it was very helpful
I'm in love with this music
@Topdoginuk Hey Tony, glad I could help! Great to hear from you again. :)
My chem got me here, and because this sounds so pretty
You are wonderful and sincere, and I follow you with interest and learn a lot from you. If it weren't for your teaching, I wouldn't have loved the guitar, and I hope that you will continue to teach the pieces using the open chords method, like albinony , monamour , moon light ex. Half of your viewers is mine when I learn from you 👍🎸👍💞💐💞💐👍🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
This piece of music has been on my mind for a couple of days so I searched for a video of it and found this excellent video from a very good teacher - I shall definitely be practicing from this video to try to learn this piece (even though I have an electric guitar).
Thank you for the lesson, I hv been stuck in bar 9 and 10 for ages, your lesson is very helpful
I didn’t know this can be played without tremolo. Nice!
I just finished learning this, thank you. I love it!!
i love classical guitar
it's 12:30am and i have my classical out learning this
Many thanks. One of the best lessons I have learnt
Wow well teached great angles so I could pause to get the chord right and perfect the song tysm 🤩
That song is amazing it's so peaceful and beatifull I'm currently learning it it's quite fun if you set your mind to it
Aula divinamente fantástica!❤🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵
Brilliant lesson, thanks so much, my first classical piece ever, delighted with myself
I'm totally recommending this in my lessons series; great lesson!
Hmmm really want a classical guitar now! :) Doing this on a steel string is a bit awkward because hitting the low E gives to much bass for me and ruins it. Must buy a classical :)
Let me recommend the Yamaha c40. Its pretty damn good and pretty cheap too.
***** Thank you :)
No problem. The only thing about the c40 i could complaint about is the strings that you get with the guitar. They are pretty low quality and breaks after a few weeks. But a simple restring ficed that issue :)
***** Oh nice :) Thanks. I think I'm going to get one then.
***** Nice! Might get one actually. Thank you :) I decided not to get the other guitar as the one you mentioned is better.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! GREAT LESSON! Gotta work on that 7th barre chord but I finally got it!!
Everything on this lesson is so clear. Thanks ur actually nuts ♥
Thank you so much for being so clear and patient. I am looking for the major parts ?
Well you couldn't have timed that one better Carl! I'm just about to teach someone this piece but, I'd forgot how to play it! This was a great refresher reminder. Oh, and beautifully played I have to add. I'm gonna take another listen to enjoy and, to learn from.
Hope you are well. Tony ;)
This lesson it’s really help me❤️ subscribed!
This music was in " Autumn in my heart " Drama. Love it
First guitar lesson ever tutor gives me this to learn, cheers
You are just great. Thank you so much.
I did the Frederick Noad class too. His 2 books are still available and probably the best out there to learn guitar on your own.
+Alen Ajhorn
Instead of trying to simply press down, try resting the side of your finger over the strings so that it's a more bony feeling instead of the more cushioned part of the finger. Though indeed it might be the strings and the tension necessary for tuning them correctly making them harder to press down.
It is a very nice instructional video. Thank you so much.
Your video helps me a lot. Thank you
love is divine 💯
Amazing job! Thank you so much.. you just encouraged me to start learning classical guitar!
Keep the good work :D
10 years ago…
so simple, yet so effective. Merci!!!
Very helpful! Thank you so much:)
Great video, thanks a lot for posting the tutorials. much respect!
Thank u very very much for giving such an easy tutorial...,really its great.....
It Took 1 hour and done phew ! What a piece
Awesome lesson ... I really love this style of music and you make it so easy for us to learn it. Thanks so much for doing this and I look forward to seeing more of your lessons.
thank you for the lesson
Complicated piece if you want to play it well (including string vibrations with the little finger). Bar chords aren't simple, they involve finger extension training, adequate strength, and precision. It is an excellent fingering and pivot exercise. Hard track, not something you learn in a day, it involves a lot of training. I love songs like that, I think they lead to concentration, perseverance and understanding the importance of practice.
Guitar's beautiful. 🧡
helpful and easy to follow, i got it after some practice and im a complete beginner with no musicality, so thats saying something
Hi Carl, I am really enjoying your piece of work. My question is : If I am into classical guitar, should I learn all the basic of guitar first ( e.g strumming, chord etc ) or directly jump into this? Regards
Great video! i dont go for any guitar classes or anything and this is still really easy! good clear instructions :D learnt the 1st part! now onto the next! thanks!
Thanks for the small intro compared with the time you need to invest in order to play page 1 :-). But its worth it -- up to part 2
Thank you for the lesson.
Thank you for the tutorial!
I'm almost done the part 1 while still stucked at those 2 bar chords.
Practice more then you guys will find out how to make the strings vibrated! XD
Thank you so much:) this is a wonderful lesson, the best I found for this piece by far....I'm just beginning and and my small hands are having trouble with the stretches and putting enough pressure on the chords....but I'm obsessed with getting the hang of it! and hey; practice makes perfect:)
Great lesson Carl thank you. Sounds great on my Lowden, thanks again.
One of my favourites
Thank u .... I have learned within 20 minutes
Good work, pls put out more tutorials like this on classical music
