Thank you for presenting this lesson and all the instructions you provide! I have never mastered extended trills. Also; i was working on 2 fingered trills it did not work for me. I extend my gratitude to you for your efforts to delivery these wonderful Videos. Please accept my compliments for beings such a great instructor. These short sessions are worth more that any of the master classes I received as a young man.

Thank you for this lesson. Would you say that finger strength is important. Example, using Finger Strengtheners, Finger Exercisers, lifting weights? I struggle with trills, especially between fingers 3 & 4. Thanks.

First, thank you for this video. It is really helpful for a classical guitar student such as myself. Second, are there any compositions that you can think of that make use of long trills like those that you mention in this video? Thanks.

Thank you for your comment! I'm glad you are finding the videos useful. Usually long trills occur in chamber music or concertos, where another player is playing something more interesting then a held trill. The second movement of Concierto Aranjuez is the most famous example of a held trill... it happens before the two long scales before the cadenza :)

My guitar has a high action because it buzzes when its too low. Is that what's preventing me from doing a fast trill or am i simply lacking trill exercise?

[@StringsByMail]

High action will make in more difficult do effectively do trills
