      Is classical guitar busking a thing? And whats the best way to approach a business like a cafe about playing some classical guitar with a tip jar or something? I have a little portable amp I bought for busking classical guitar at some point, but I haven't tried it yet. I haven't gathered the courage yet, and am not sure what to expect.

    Hello Beatrix.
    Here's a suggestion for a technique video: I'm a beginner level guitarist and today I noticed that there is a clicking noise when the RH nail/s makes contact with the string/s.
    As a guitarist you want to eliminate unwanted sounds of course and you also don't want to practice with poor technique, that likely is the cause of this issue, so as not to ingrain bad habits in your muscle memory.
    It would be nice if you could adress it in a future video of yours.
    Have a nice day.

      @genji4433 11 місяців тому +1

      Hey there!
      I think the solution to your problem will be to shape your nail in a way, that your fingertips get to the string first, and it only touches your nail when you push it into your fingertip.

    • @Seepferdchen91
      @Seepferdchen91 11 місяців тому

      @@genji4433 Thank you for the suggestion :) It raises another question for me though: Don't you ideally want to hit the string with the nail and the fleshy part of the finger at the same time?

    • @genji4433
      @genji4433 11 місяців тому +1

      @@Seepferdchen91 the ideal thing is for it to hit the flesh, and from there, slide onto the nail. The transition between them should be really smooth, that way there is no ugly sound. Figuring out the ideal nailshape for you can take some time, but these are the basic principles of it.

    • @jerryrobertsguitars
      @jerryrobertsguitars 10 місяців тому

      no, in my experience flesh first by the tiniest possible amount, and the string must slide easily onto the nail from the flesh. I had a couple of lessons with Narciso Yepes in 1974. He pointed out that he could play perfectly straight across, no angle of the nails to the strings and produce no clicks. He did it by touching the flesh of the fingertip so close to the nail that the string could not bog down into the fingertip and release suddenly to the nail producing a click. It works. of course some Angle of the nail on the string is more forgiving. @@Seepferdchen91

    I appreciate you want to help, I wish to share this with you: money is to do with condition which means it is apart of conditional love. Music comes to us though true love, which is to say unconditional love, and is why musicians naturally manifest music without conditions such as accepting money first. I don't mean to disagree with what you're saying, I think this truth is helpful to identify though when wanting to know why so many musicians go unpaid or work hard and paid very little because in the whole grand scheme of things, we are all sowing that which we wish to reap, which in the case of a musician, is unconditional love. This is why I enjoy accepting donations for my time/music if I ever play rather than ever get involved with being paid a fixed amount to perform the same tasks with the same conditions etc

      I would charge them as well. A smaller fee but a fee. Why? It helps establish in their minds that you are a professional and this is not just a hobby. Friends and family seeing you as a professional will make it more likely that they will refer you. Most and the best clients/students come from this source.

    Over 20 ways to START MAKING MONEY as a MUSICIAN today!
    From performing at local venues and open mics to offering private lessons or session work for other musicians, there are numerous ways for musicians to generate income. Additionally, exploring opportunities in licensing, synchronization, and music supervision for film, TV, and advertising can lead to substantial earnings. Creating and selling merchandise such as t-shirts, posters, and CDs can also be profitable. Utilizing social media and online platforms to promote and monetize music through streaming services, Patreon campaigns, or crowdfunding can also provide financial benefits for musicians seeking alternative revenue streams beyond traditional album sales or live shows.

    Notice how attractive musicians also do much better financially and in marketing themselves; looks are everything.
    Musicians are paid low because they are in low demand (especially in Classical music) and the current supply satisfies the demand. The market is unfortunately not asking for more musicians, they are just asking for beautiful people. It's terrible but it is what it is :(
