Great sound, beautifully paced. Much appreciation for posting this.

Beautiful on all aspects

Beautiful! Thank you for playing this piece. One of my favorite albums is “Solitude on Guitar” by Baden Powell.

[@LFUFMNX]

I have watched/listened to this performance numerous times. I love it. What a piece, and what expressive playing with good tone and on an instrument that radiates. I doubt my small hands could handle that 664mm, especially that first chord.

[@janeenraeheller5887]

Gorgeous and peaceful.

[@epicurhyss4014]

So pleased that this unsung masterpiece can nevertheless Garner some appreciation here in 2023. Very well performed.

I don't know what make of guitar Ashley normally plays, or how it sounds under her fingers, but...
...she might want to consider buying that Ramirez...

I didn’t know Baden Powell was also a guitar composer ! It sounds amazing !

Baden Powell de Aquino (1937-2000)?

Very smooth playing. Relaxing. I heard Ashley play some other Brazilian pieces. Superlative player.

Amazing!

Sublime! 🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@onesandzeros]

Sounds great. I see this is a 664mm guitar. That F chord at the beginning looks like quite a stretch. That chord is in Sor study 8, iirc. Thanks Ashley and GSI.

[@LFUFMNX]

The lowest note is D# (6=D)

[@francescodefendi3201]

@@LFUFMNXthe chords at the beginning maybe a Eb7 with 11# (tritone subsistution) going to D6

[@LFUFMNX]

@@francescodefendi3201 Maybe, but the sheet music says D# for the lowest note.

[@onesandzeros]

​@@LFUFMNX thanks, going back to listen again, it obviously isn't an F major chord, I was just noticing the hand position. Her index finger is on the first fret of the sixth, and her pinky is on the fifth fret of the first. So it's similar to the shape I was thinking of.

[@LFUFMNX]

@@francescodefendi3201 I believe the score I linked below that shows a D# is actually wrong and it IS an Eb, and I believe you're probably right about the flat-five substitution. Well done.
