You have really strong fingers. I’ve been playing guitar for 40 years on and off, bands and bands etc and this year have been learning classical. With a pick I can shred and it’s amazing to learn what you can do with your nails. Great channel 🤘🏻🙌
This is so helpful honestly. I've never had a teacher and I can pretty easily play stuff like Lagrima but I have such a lack of knowledge on pieces and studies so I love learning this easy stuff that benefits my technique cause a lot of days I just feel like a terrible player. My right hand needs a lot of work I have bad technique from playing acoustic and anchoring my pinky so I don't shake
I highly recommend this free online course by This Is Classical Guitar, it is the most THOROUGH class I’ve ever taken, and it eases into even music reading, but in a way that is just so simple to get piece by piece. He even takes you hand by hand through positions and things for situations like technique and his yet channel has a plethora more of helpful tips and tutorials. You gotta do the free handbook and the corresponding video together and make sure to watch all the orientation and introductory videos, I like it so much so far, I’m comfy playing even with a regular steel string acoustic. God bless! 😊
I’ve played classical for 45 years, but only studied for 5-6. It was great to hear you play a number of the pieces and studies we used…to a higher standard than me of course.
Nice 🙂. I found some pieces I've studied too. Unfortunately I was not as good and busy as you and didn't become a professional. You are a really excellent player, and it's nice to hear you speaking about your when and what playing. Thank you for sharing.
Dang your smart! And quite good as well! I could never learn to read music for some reason. I'm a new fan of yours by the way,😁 I was wondering, how long have you been playing?
Not only your tutorials, but also by watching you play helped me a lot. I play guitar for like 10 years, but I had lots of bad habits that I was able to correct them thanks to you
I am struck by how much you loved the music you played as a child! Your love of the music, it seems, would have played an important role in you becoming who I regard as the best guitar player in the world and my favorite guitar player ever! Thank you for the time and effort to answer people's request and produce this video.
Yeh but can you play wonder wall..by Barrios.with full feather headdress ,in the style of a chopan nocturne whilst holding a can of fosters.....no ? See me....nice one lass
Alex will be my online teacher when I get a good classical guitar that should be delivered soon. I have been playing on and off various guitars over 53 years and never had a lesson. Having been a language teacher I can see perfectly well that Alex is a born teacher. I have always wanted to play classical guitar but never acquired any technique. I lived in Spain for many years and love Spanish guitar music. The discipline involved will be a challenge for me, but the rewards will come. Her technical attack is nothing short of thrilling and very inspiring.
The journey can be just as fun as the final destination. I will download and play some of your cited pieces and vicariously enjoy your beginner's classical guitar journey 🤗🌹❤
Great video. It was good for me to see some of the work you did early on. I’m looking forward to being able to make my own list someday. Thanks for sharing
This was an interesting video and I always love to listen to you playing guitar. I also like it when you explain things, it's just a bit challenging for me because I'm not English. Doesn't matter, I understood everything.
i've never learned to read music or music theory but i've played many of those pieces just by ear and tab. it's great to see your progression. I started in high school with electric: metallica, black sabbath, iron maiden, rush, ect. now i play classical 99% of the time.
These beginner vids are great. i wish you had a roadmap series for beginners. i like how you point out the certain techniques that translate to other pieces. I've been wanting to learn classical guitar for a long time, but figuring out where to start and learning to read sheet music are the 2 most intimidating things. Congratulations on 200k, Good luck on your journey to one million.
Oooh Vuelvo al Sur feels like the piece i was waiting for!! Thank you very much! Easy enough but absolutly beautiful 😊 PS: In case this is not a rhetorical question at 12:19: The camera is on auto settings, so it constantly adjusts white balance and focus. Sometimes it re adjusts itself wich leads to a more yellow picture or focus on the decoration in the background instead of you. I don´t think it takes away from the video! But if you´d like to avoid it you can set the camera manually.
Just started my classical guitar journey at 31. I'm a month in with a teacher who is quite excellent. It was very interesting to see your journey, and I'm looking forward to seeing how mine goes
Beautiful music, outstanding personality, and such a beautiful young lady, You have your whole life ahead of you and your so structured. We all have our talents and I unfortunately with three guitars still can’t play a tune though I truly hope to play just a tiny bit as well as you some day…
Hello Alexandra. My brother's name is Alejandro. Which pronounced in Spanish sounds a lot like your name. I'm also a musician, a guitarist, like you. Actually my favorite guitar player, after you, would probably be Paco de Lucía, or Francisco Tárrega, or Angus Young. I'm argentinian. You play Piazzolla. Cheers
I just got my order of "Play Piazzolla - Easy guitar arrangements..." and i absolutely love it - very musical. What are your thoughts about this question -> Play /Practice pieces with or without hearing them before?
I did view both segments which you had prepared for us. I would like to share my observations with “you” (Alexa), since you voiced some uncertainty about whether you had accomplished what you set out to do. Additionally, in recognition of the important fact that I am a member of the over 200,000 (ever increasing) legion who follow your valuable contributions to many, many important topics. I hope that my thoughts here, will prompt the contribution of even more people to share their thoughts as a measure for you just how significant having information, no matter how low value some may feel that it is, presented by an informed person is. When the presenter sets forth information from their own experience, they naturally do so in a fashion that makes sense to them. Whether their recollection is categorical, historical or “any other fashion of recollection” (I apologize. You see Alexa, you are not alone in having a loss of memories!), what becomes more important for those who are listening, is that the content become attached to the person presenting it. This allows for a formation of the content by each individual viewing the video, into a “personal shape” of their own rendering. We “students” aren’t readily aware of the transformation that is happening in micro-measurements of time, being totally engaged by our charming expert who is master of the concept. I hope that you find this explanation useful. You are so much more than a professional performer. A musician of profound comprehension. A UA-camr with 200k! You are a person of exquisite passion who cares enough about those of us who appreciate your accomplishments that you demonstrate your loving kindness in video form. I am truly grateful to you. JimR
I played some of the same pieces in college. Just not anywhere as smooth and clear as this amazing artist but it’s fun to know everyone plays the same music.
Вас копируют, вы можете гордиться, даже платье, только другого цвета, а пьесу вашу играет Видович, но до вас ей далеко, исполнение и собственное равнодушие к музыке всё портит...
Watching your beginner pieces certainly makes me realise how much more practice and theory I need but, that's why I wached. Well, that and wondering what your voice is like as I had until now only seen the videos where you are performing.
Oh yes, those Carcassi studies repeatedly brought me back to playing guitar for almost 50 years now. It's not getting easier but I still can play Lágrima and BWV 996 is still on my list ;) Thanks for making me remember the seventies when I was about your age and tried to study guitar which did not work because I am born lazy xD
You have really strong fingers. I’ve been playing guitar for 40 years on and off, bands and bands etc and this year have been learning classical. With a pick I can shred and it’s amazing to learn what you can do with your nails. Great channel 🤘🏻🙌
Aaaargh! After Vuelvo al sur, Lagrima sounded easy.
Great video 👍 please make videos on carcassi 25 etudes. That would be great help
The wonderful artiste' Alexandra Wittingham, Thank you for inspiring so many🐾...
Have you seen how long her proximal phalanges are? No wonder she's good
You played Lovely
Excellent tutorial, very helpful! Thank you!
So talented. When were you a beginner?
Congratulations for the great class.
Hardly boring! Thank you for a look at your early years with guitar and what you worked with to get to where you are now!

@@featherquill9476 ok
Embrace Alexandra.
Здравствуйте. Подскажите пожалуйста, что за произведение было сыгранно Александрой на 11:12 минуте ?
勉強できました。次の回を楽しみにしています。別のピアソラ、リベルタンゴを覚えるのに苦労されている。次はガンジでお願い、、、
Fascinating video. Such a great idea. More like this please! Really appreciate your descriptions and reasoning. Thanks.
I’ve played classical for 45 years, but only studied for 5-6. It was great to hear you play a number of the pieces and studies we used…to a higher standard than me of course.

Please make the similar video for intermediate level! It is so helpful!
ごめんなさい。タップミスしました。許して下さい。子供の時に写真
最高です！😆
Beautiful playing, Alexa! Please play some BACH.

Thank you, really enjoyed this compilation and has inspired me not to give up

Fantastic choice of pieces. I love them too.
Great video. It was good for me to see some of the work you did early on. I’m looking forward to being able to make my own list someday. Thanks for sharing
Carcassi's No3 three brings back memories of my audition back when I was at the Conservatoire many years ago!
This was an interesting video and I always love to listen to you playing guitar. I also like it when you explain things, it's just a bit challenging for me because I'm not English. Doesn't matter, I understood everything.
Hi,Whittingham that's very nice tutorial n I hope u make more tutorials again
When you have a time
Please try to play a J,S,Bach’s Chaconne
Beautiful Alexandra thank you! These pieces sound so much more lovely when you play them! I'll keep practicing.
Great! Thank you!
When I see a sweet, beautiful and talented woman, I subscribe!
Be calm. Explain more show.

Саша, когда уже научу Вас говорить по-русски

What is the music in the intro to this video please?
Do some Villa-lobos etudes. Blow a few minds!
A natural teacher you are. ♥️

Good rambling. Thanks.
Which piece of Guiliani is played in this video?
I'm off to find that Gary Ryan book now.
Leo Brouwer brings back nightmare:-)
I never could and still cannot appreciate his music
Leo Brouwer is a little special, for true, but some pieces I really like a lot: Un dia de Noviembre p.e..
Beautiful music, outstanding personality, and such a beautiful young lady, You have your whole life ahead of you and your so structured. We all have our talents and I unfortunately with three guitars still can’t play a tune though I truly hope to play just a tiny bit as well as you some day…
Thank you.
Damn, she so pretty. Marry me!
Thank you for teach me.

You are so beautifull

時間と資金の都合が付けば楽器を習いたい🎸🎷🎻
アレクサンドラさんの軽妙なト-クに心がときめく💓

Alexa não vê nós mano.
Que triste!😭
Thankyou for this
I’m a late starter but love the sound of this music and the way you explain
I played some of the same pieces in college. Just not anywhere as smooth and clear as this amazing artist but it’s fun to know everyone plays the same music.
Amazing playing and guitar class presentation Really like the Piazzolla piece too Thank you for sharing 🎸

To me Vuelvo al sur actually seems more challenging than Lagrima
Great video! could you possibly put the names of all the pieces?
Always good to warm up on the familiar easier pieces. I see you started on steel strings. Probably switched to nylon to read notes.
Lovely sounding guitar.
love the sound, music, playing - tis great
Здоровья вам Александра, давно вас не видел, но хотелось бы и послушать , и не уроки...
Oh yes, those Carcassi studies repeatedly brought me back to playing guitar for almost 50 years now. It's not getting easier but I still can play Lágrima and BWV 996 is still on my list ;)
Thanks for making me remember the seventies when I was about your age and tried to study guitar which did not work because I am born lazy xD
Alexa, you are wonderful!
Classical Guitar is a riff gold mine .
merci pour ce partage.
talented girl .. keep it up
Thanks, Whittingham 🌇
I love you idol👍🏾
Thx
