Lágrima, Preludio by Francisco Tárrega (1852-1909). PDF sheet music and video for classical guitar. Comes with both a notation edition with left hand fingering and a separate tab edition. The level is intermediate (Grade 4).
This is one of the most famous pieces in the guitar repertoire. Lagrima [tear] by Francisco Tárrega (1852-1909) is a beautiful melody with some nice accompaniment below it. The simple melody integrated into the accompaniment pattern is a nice challenge in legato melody as well as voice independence and balance. A few challenging shapes and the Barre are a bit tricky but so short that it is all manageable.

I don't post in YT or actually social media period. But, I could not resist doing it here. This is probably the best lesson i have seen with practical advise that actually matter. I have seen many musicians playing like a computer! giving every note the same value. This reminds me what Texas University Professor Adam Holzman said during the 2018 Brevard summer festival "we are all equal but, notes in a piece are not all equal."
Thanks so much!
Oh my, I used this piece for a music school audition 40 years ago. I stopped playing classical guitar many years ago and am now getting back into it. Thank you for this website and for having this lovely piece in a lesson!
My pleasure, hope you enjoy!
You are an inspiration
I can only agree with what has been said before: it is by far the best teaching exercise I have ever seen on UA-cam. Great class, compliments and many thanks!
I've played this piece for warmup for years and never thought of many of your ideas. Wow, brilliant work. Sure enough i accentuated all the cheap ones you talk about avoiding. THank you maestro.
I just sent a little gratitude to you ($$) to help support your valuable work. I have an excellent formal instructor in Alex Rockwell of Nashville, but whenever I come to your page for reinforcement, I'm always learning new things. After 50 years of playing folk, rock, and blues mostly intuitively, I recently started classical study, and in a good way it feels like I'm starting all over (it's hard, and also rewarding with lots of practice!). You helped me with Carcassi Etude No. 1, with my general technique and musicality, and now you're helping me with Lagrima. Thank you, Bradford - and warm regards from Detroit!
Thanks David! Greetings from Canada.
I’m so impressed with the amount of detail in your instruction, awesome, thank you so much.
Thank you, Bradford, most helpful and beautifully played on that magic guitar of yours.
Cheers....John (Wollongong, Australia).
Glad it was of help!
i found a really nice decoration for this piece. at 0:30 following the chord, it is a 2 part hammer-on instead, that is 7-9-10 on the G string.
This is the first piece I'm learning for grade 5 ABRSM. These vids are invaluable in getting into a piece. Many thanks
Thanks for watching!
I'm currently learning the piece and this video, not only showed me how to deal with the problem areas but more importantly enjoy and feel the music like it's meant to be played. Thank you.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the video, that was the piece that made me want to play classical guitar! Really helpfull explanation.
Excellent lesson, and wonderful approach to breaking down the piece. Thanks.
Thanks, enjoy!
I've seen many lessons of this piece on UA-cam but this is the nicest presentation about the melody
Thanks so much!
@@Thisisclassicalguitar no. Thank you. I've got more drive to learn this now.
the best explanation how to play lagrima in yt seriously ive been search many video like this but this is the best and you win the competition
Thanks so much!
this is really the best lesson for lagrima out here, thank you!!
Thanks, glad you liked it.
Great tutorial, so systematic and thorough. Big fan of your channel. Thank you.
I love F Tarrega , short pieces. The B7 chord is defiantly something I work on or well worked on quite a bit. Keeping the timing and rhythm smooth and Arp. notes so they don't sound out of place if that makes sense. Dynamics I suppose. Thank You for this lesson, and all you do for furthering music really cool.
Thank your the PDF :), interpretation and class.
Thanks for the awesome video.... It helps remove a feeling that there is mystery how to play this song well... It's so great to hear someone explain all of the true considerations involved to play the song at a higher level... I appreciate this so much.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you. I'm working on this piece and these tips are helpful.
Good to hear!
How is the progess going?
A really pretty piece, another fairly easy one for me to work on. The hardest thing for me is playing with expression on classical guitar, though I am getting better. As I mostly play electric, the hardest thing for me is right-hand work.
Well, you can always study lots of right hand exercises on open strings. Once, my student broke her left arm and we just practiced right hand patterns for 6 weeks and she was amazing after that!
Thank you! This is a great help. You are such a good teacher!
Thanks, glad you found it helpful.
Thank you very much for another perspective.
Congratulations Bradford. This is the best tutorial of Lágrima I've ever watched on youtube (I've seen many of them). You're so didactive! All crystal clear and with the right emphasis on the details that need to be highlighted for a good interpretation of the piece. Thank you very much!
I appreciate so much your lessons. They are very helpful. Thank you!
Oh man, that string noise was killing me on the first and second measure. I kept trying to alleviate the issue by lifting my fingers more, but then it wasn't as legato. Thanks for the tip.
Hope it helped!
Thank you for this video- I learned a lot of great tips not only for this piece but music in general.
Thanks, glad it helped!
Such a beautiful piece
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent lesson on this great piece. Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Thanks a lot for the great lesson of Lagrima. If you share also Endecha&Oremus from Tarrega, I will be so happy.
That is a beautiful sound.
Thanks so much!
Really useful tips! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you!
This is really helpful,
thank you!
You're very welcome!
Thank you, i following this n i can play Lagrima because of this channel too. But what next song to learn? I think i should to learn it step by step, maybe you have that program in this channel? So people can learn classical song in here step by step; I love the sound of classical guitar. Once again thank you so much.
Sorry i can see from your link in description n i can see songs in grades, that's help a lot n maybe there's a song i love in it so i can learn more. Thank you
Thank you so much! I really enjoy your lessons. I was wondering if you could make on for cajita de musica by Francisco Tarrega. I can’t figure out how to do the harmonics
Great suggestion!
Great lesson!
Thanks! 😃
UA-cam needs to optimize its algorithms, simply guitar ads are so cringe, most people who watch this channel will never download it.
Ads, I know, a pain sometimes.
thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
thanks Teacher
Excellent
The videos in this chanel are so helping and its greate. But which fingers did you used for the part going like : "E D C B" i cant figure it out and ıf you see this and help me i would be so thankfull. Thank you.
Did you get the score? I have fingering on it.
Amazing as always, what level would i need to be to play this? I've been doing your method nearly every day as a beginner for about 4 months
This is about grade 4 or 5. I'd recommend working up to it gradually, you can check out my educational series if your want: www.thisisclassicalguitar.com/learn-classical-guitar-education-series/
@@Thisisclassicalguitar thank you!
Excellent as always. Is that a Cordoba C12 you are playing?
Thanks! It's a Cordoba C10 that I use for teaching sometimes. I have a Douglass Scott guitar arriving this month!
I bought a Cordoba C12 because of your review awhile back. I love it. Thanks!!!!!
Cool, that's great. Ya, the C12 is good.
thanks super explanation
How do you make the transition to the barre section in the first part sound alright? I tried to take as much time as I need, but it just sounds like I'm hesitating.
One thing, technically the barre comes after the first two notes of the position change so you try to get the 3rd and 4th fingers first and then the barre. Practice it slowly with a metronome to force yourself to get the timing and then just relax it all. It's very subtle but helps the otherwise tricky shift.
@@Thisisclassicalguitar thanks Brad! I'll keep that in mind, for this piece and for others with similar requirements.
TYSM
Are rest stokes used at any time during playing the melody ? thanks
I use all free strokes here when actually playing the piece so that everything sustains but rest stroke can be used as a practice method to bring out the melody.
I need you as a teacher ! Where can I find you ?
I'm in Canada!
Why does lagrima by tarrega has A# in 7th bar as the piece is entirely supposed to be in E maj scale?
The first half of the piece is in E major and the second half in E minor. But the A# in Bar 7 comes from a secondary dominant chord. To put it simply, it is an F# major chord leading to the B major chord which then leads to the E major chord. Chords and notes from outside the key can be used, often the function is to create a dominant chord (the five chord of a key) of a dominant chord. The theory can be confusing but it happens in pieces ranging from classical to jazz to pop.
Is there any special tuning needed for the guitar? Or is the eadgbe ok?
Just regular tuning for this one.
Could anyone help me understand the sheet music for this? I'm a beginner to reading it but I thought the first two notes are E and G# but on the staff it looks like just E and G?
If you are a beginner,i suggest you start from something simpler than this,there are notes that will confuse you,it is better to practice playing on the 3rd and 4th string,learn some techniques like bar chords and hammer on-pull offs and then come back,hope that helps
The key signature is E major (the four sharps at the beginning of the line next to the clef). This indicates that F, C, G, D are all sharp unless otherwise noted. Ya, you should integrate 5-10mins a day of method book work starting from the beginning. Not so much that it kills your enthusiasm but just enough to make progress in reading.
@@Thisisclassicalguitar Hello Mister Bradford,i want to ask you something,i am learning this piece and i am doing it section by section,i am at the bar chords on part 1.I practiced for like 3-4 hours,will any problem occur with my fingers because of the bar chords?
@@Thisisclassicalguitar Appreciate the response. After a lot of google searching came to the same conclusion. Thanks!
It'd be helpful to have the camera zoomed in closer.
