Hi dears,

I just like to know your favourite classical guitar song that you play.
I sometimes need new classical guitar song to learn myself.
This topic would be helpful for us to make a best of list.

here is mine ;
J.S. Bach Allemande from Lute Suite No 1 BWV 996 Em

So what is your favourite classical guitar song that you play ?

I dont really have a favorite for all time
but at the moment I love playing this small piece from henry purcell
I have forgotten its name but it is really easy
Il tab it out for you but not right now
 
for the rest I mostly like renaissance
 
at the moment Im trying to figure out
Lachrimae - John Dowland (1561-1626)
from weeds tabs its quite dificult without the music
I do have a couple of lute versions on cd but its never the same

Well i can't really choose a favorite but out of all the songs i can play i favor Bach's work the most.

Alper English isn't your native language is it?

[Alper]

Hi Kel,

English is not my native language 
I'm sorry if I have trouble to tell, what I mean.

Please warn me, if I have a mistake.

Thank you.

its funny but each new tune i try becomes my favourite.but if you hold a gun to my head , right now id plumb for ojos brujos by leo brower, its quite difficult but only very short but the tune is so subtle it seduces you as you play.

[Fong]

La Catedral by Barrios, great tune that one.

At the moment tho I am playing Bach Prelude for Lute Suite no 4, for some reason I thought it was the theme to Antiques Roadshow, but I don't think it is.

Hey guys.  I'm new, but I'm not a new guitar player.  My favorite song to play right now is Rumores De La Caleta by Isaac Albeniez.  Its a malaguena and really fun to play.

[gabrielconroy]

It has to be Bach's Chaconne in Dm

Other than that:

Roland Dyens
Leo Brouwer
Astor Piazolla

I'm working on Albéniz's Cordoba at the moment, but am finding it difficult to make the fast strumming section sound musical...

[Alper]

Hi guys,

Ohh Bach's Chaconne in Dm is one off my favourite too,
what a melodic piece,
I still didnt finished it.

By the way, I want to create a page, "classical guitar pieces best of" in the main page,
with your favourites here, and give tabs with them,

any suggestion welcome.

best wishes.

what about henry purcell rondo
the violin piece in pride and prejudice
I think in the movie its called a letter to henry purcell
it is really a beatyfull song
and to be hounest I have not yet found it

I play Sor's Etude 17 nearly everytime I sit down to practice. I use it as my warm up piece; it doubles as a great right hand excerise as well as having one of the prettiest melodies I have ever heard.
