Just wish I had had you as a teacher Mirella! You make things so clear and straightforward. Very enjoyable.

Thanks so much for this lesson. Loved the tune you chose. Only thing I would have found really helpful would be for to remain silent after each new phrase to give time to absorb the phrase and play it on my own. Thanks again Love your playing.

I like your performance in the MUJI BGM very much :)

What about the ornaments?  How about explaining them too?  To me they're the life and soul of the sound, and the hardest part to get right.

What is the name of the giotár player of Cherrish The Ladies again?
Probably the only ban giotáraí in Irish trad from Ireland?
Why are they some few(almost ZERO) Irish girls on the giotár?
Is there a taboo about that instrument?

[patroberts]

Wonderful lesson. Thanks! What instrument are you using? And what would you recommend for a beginner?

Hi there, I just wondered.

If I subscribe to the course, may I have assistance from one one the teachers?

I'm having a lot of troubles using both hands together.

Is there any where with the music sheet with the bass on your website or any where else ?
