5.0 out of 5 stars The Dirt on Classical Guitar Playing, October 9, 2005
By 
This review is from: Art of Classical Guitar Playing (The Art of Series) (Sheet music)
This book is really helpful to those
seriously interested in classical guitar.
All the stuff your teacher never told you
about tone production, nails, and lots
of tips on overcoming technical difficulties
like the bar and tremolo. Solid book,
a real enlightment and great help for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars cool book, May 26, 2000
This review is from: Art of Classical Guitar Playing (The Art of Series) (Sheet music)
This book turned out to be very helpful towards learning to play the guitar in the classical style. As I followed the page by page process of his teaching, I found myself learning in leaps and bounds. There are cd's included which helped me learn some of the songs. Having previous familiarity with music and the guitar helped me advance in this particular style quickly. However, learning to play classical guitar is a lengthy process so I still have many hours of playing left to do. But by the time I get to the end of this book I will have become much better!
