Need Advice from Classical Guitarists

Featured Replies

Despite what my friends might tell you, I am NOT the worst classical guitarist in the world. But I am probably among the top ten. So I would like the opinion of someone who, unlike me, can really play the instrument.

Before I take this new piece too far in this direction, can you tell me if what I've written is even playable?

I'm particularly concerned with measures 14 and beyond. I realize that playing the lower part at mp and the upper at ff is not realistic--I just told Sibelius that for the audio export--but, assuming the notes are playable at that tempo, is it possible to make the melody stand out like, or close to, the way it is in the recording?

Thanks for your feedback. I really appreciate it. I'm kind of in--no, not kind of--I'm definitely in over my head here.
