I like it but I still think a metronome might help, however I do love that piece, I am also working on it

Hey Juan nice post. The only thing I really noticed were a couple of buzzing notes but gee, that's nothing. What I liked was how steady and unrushed it was. This is one I would look forward to a review on. Good work.

Juan,

Your hard work is paying dividends. This version is very smooth and unrushed. You also seem to have mastered Neil's fancy fingerwork no sweat.

It is sounding great!

Good work.

Hi
I think you have made good progress on this compared with your first video.

I think the bit where you go up to the 5th fret and then play descending thirds is still sounding a bit rushed. All these notes are still 8th notes and so should be the same speed as the other notes.

Other than that its pretty much perfect

Very solid. That sounded controlled, relaxed, unrushed. I liked that you do the more difficult fingerings that Neil describes.

Good work Juan, much cleaner on this take and you are obviously more confident as your your right hand looks more fluid.

Excellent video

Juan, I suggest you take a look at Neil's review of Abilio's post of this song. Neil gives a fantastic explanation of a way to practice the passage that Mark refers to. It's really worth a look.
