marianneParticipantI wanted to try the Tennessee Waltz but don’t have a high G on me. Was still fun learning the Tremolo picking etude ๐

marianneParticipantLovely submissions everyone! @grannieannie beautifully sophisticated composition as Andrew said! Love some of your peculiar choices.
@katazumiri that was so cool ๐I enjoyed going through the harmonics course from beginning to end and capping it with Amazing Grace. I decided to learn and record both versions as I felt they complimented each other. Started with Evan’s then with yours Andrew, as I felt the F chord on measure 13 provided a nice variation/touch as a start to the ending.

marianneParticipantItโs been a very hectic monthโฆ!
I am focusing on harmonics this month as it is not a forte of mine.Execution: I will work through the harmonics course. I have never tried the tapping so that will be interestingโฆ
Application: I will then apply it to Amazing Grace hopefully.
Evaluation: As I go through the course, I will be trying to improve on the cleanliness and success/hit of the natural harmonics, relearn the artificial ones as I had only tried those once before and then aim to learn the tapping ones which seem unreachable right now ๐
Nicely done @The_Bumble_Bard!

Hello RC101 friends,
I chose for this month the incredibly beautiful fingerpicking etude n.28. What a melancholic and pleasing chord progression AJ. Thank you!!
I also felt it was a perfect tune that worked well on both low G tenor and baritone and wanted to compare the sounds, so they are back to back.
This week has been particularly rough as a young work colleague passed away after a horrid accident. I dedicate this interpretation to her memory.

marianneParticipant@karenj it is really a challenge but one tip is to really try to keep your fingers pressed down the whole way (which is harder when you are playing 2 simultaneously) and also for me having my nails cut short enough where the ‘meat’ of my finger tip is solely doing the work ๐
These have worked for me but am sure Andrew and the RC101 team have more tips to offer!
Stick with it!Nice take @Dianna!
