Are you learning classical guitar or would like to learn classical guitar? ClassicalGuitarShed.com can help you on the journey. If you want to rise to new levels in your playing, it just takes time and strategic work.
To play classical guitar well, you need to know:
* how to hold and touch the guitar - form and positioning
* how to move your fingers and hands - efficient, clean, and fluid
* how to learn pieces - reading music, understanding what you see, ingraining, polishing
* how to craft the music so it is beautiful - swells and fades, rhythm, touch
* how to practice so all these skills improve over time and don't go away
At the root of beautiful playing is a solid technique (aka “the way your hands move”). You may have beautiful music in your head, but if your hands can't play it, it won't come out of the guitar.
But bad technique puts a limit on your playing. Speed, tone quality, and control can suffer.
Good technique gets stronger and more instinctive with every practice. It forms the bedrock foundation for your music.
And you may want to understand music so you learn it more easily and it makes more sense. This can help you avoid the excess frustration and dismay that comes with shoddy practice and prolonged confusion.
But playing the notes is not enough. Like an actor bring words to life, we breathe life into our pieces.
And we can do this in an organized way, day in and day out, reliably. Great musicians can play wonderfully in any mood. They do not rely on emotions. Instead, they create music that affects our emotions. This is a trained skill, not an inborn talent.
Playing classical guitar is a long-term study. It's something we do in our homes as part of our days. We play for ourselves, for the quality it adds to life. We may enjoy playing guitar for others, but most of the time we are alone with our work.
There are methods and formulas for great practice. We can use our time well so that see more progress.
We can fix the problems and erase the mistakes. And we can enjoy conquering the plentiful challenges that classical guitar music offers.
If you plan to play classical guitar for any length of time, it is worth it to get help. It's not something we can do on our own, like folk music.

The best video you've done=and you've done plenty of great videos. The best advice and it applies to everyone. Thank you for having such great insight into music and the study of the guitar. Wonderful channel=I remember John Williams saying Cavatina is a pearl and this video is a pearl
Best advice ❤…. If you are beginner please take good courage in this 🙏
I hv a question, can self taught?
I’m 57 I just want to play 3 or 5 songs I’ll be happy.
Oof, this is gonna take some getting used to but thank you for the tip!

Great content
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Don’t try the Aquila Sugar strings. They are sticky when you first touch them. The trebles squeak, and they don’t last long. I haven’t tried their Nylgut, but I hear those are good. I have heard good reviews on the Knobloch Actives.
So DON'T play like you're flapping a wet noodle? Got it!
Thank you. I am glad that I found your channel. I will start my learning.
If the creed's thing " resurrections of the dead " is true, then the elderly exercise is truly a beginning :)
Dream big. Start small.
So true! Have goals that reflect where you are at and increase ability with many trips to the woodshed! Your pieces for lower ability students are so moving and beautiful in their simple yet sophisticated way!❤
So many great tips. This man is a guitar guru.
So when we think about a pizza, can we go ahead and order?
I have played different music through the years, playing electric, and acoustic guitar. I quit all together for many years. And now at 75 I am trying to learn to play a classical guitar. I am focusing on re-learning to sight read, and mainly doing finger exercises, technique of right and left hand. And just having fun. Thanks for your videos.
For me (started guitar as a 61 year old) succes is being able to make music together with other people and other instruments. And: yes, I am 😊. It’s not high level, it’s not fast, we’ve all passed the age of 60, but: we all play the best we can on our different instruments, we study hard, and we’re having a wonderful time together.
Enjoy the music and the togetherness! You are blessed!
I appreciate your dedication but it’s my observation that your hands are tensed
But why ?
Why no mention on the muting part?
Wow you are gonna make my prof so happy in a week, thanks so much!
This series of 3 videos on the Petit Blues piece are very helpful. Thanks
Is this dude fucking joking lol
❤
None of these work, even in theory, long term. Strings squeak.
Some of your advice has been very helpful for as its called 4 finger technique on the bass. Interestingly almost nowhere is it refered to as it is classical guitar. Im sure its alot easier on bass with the strings being further apart even at that its been a long, ongoing process
I love this channel, keep doing what your doing.
Hello! I love your videos and appreciate them very much! I was just wondering, what piece you are playing in the outro?
It's Capricho Arabe by Francisco Tarrega.
Love this series
Thanks 😊
Thầy giảng quá hay cảm ơn thầy
Mistake #2 was really hard to get rid off coming from the violin.
Wow that’s really helpful. Thanks Allen
Fantastic information
Major scale pattern explained. Me: cool,click You: we’re not going to talk about that right now. Me: WTF!
When I realised the melody leads the strum pattern , it was an aha moment . Always great to see your teaching
It's always good to learn "classical"! Just like ballet will help with every type of dance!
Tell that to Segovia! Everyone’s hands are different.
Thank you Sir!
Very helpful, thanks😀
Perfekt
Felicidades. Supongo que conoces el método de guitarra de Emilio Pujol y el de Pascual Roch. En ambos se explica detalladamente la técnica correcta para pulsar sin las uñas. Saludos desde Madrid.
OMG, the difference in the sound... that's really really cool! Thank you! 👏
He says you dont wanna stick like a comforter in there. 😂 great video as always and thanks for the advice, I'll stick with smaller towel or maybe the sponge idea you mentioned.
How long of a nail is needed? Is nail shape different for strumming folk, rock, blues?
Ufff... it's not easy 😅 Thank you😊
Beautiful! ❤
Love it, I’m terrible at cowboy strumming lol
Жаль, что этот чел по-русски не говорит...
