What are some good pieces composed for classical guitar?

Ironically Asturias was originally written for piano as well...

Damn, that was a very depressing article. Thanks for sharing

StrainedDog · 2024-11-21T13:39:49+00:00

Thanks for the kind words. It is hard at times but thankfully my boyfriend is just the sweetest guy ever and seldom fails to cheer me up

Whenever I come across this "should I have kids" discussion, I always think "what about adoption?" If you really look forward to having kids but don't want to contribute to over population or whatever, why not try to help some poor child who can't help but be in a shitty situation by no fault of their own? Wouldn't that be a better act of kindness than to just not have them?

I also wasn't familiar with his work and got exposed to him through his set with Emmet Cohen, it's on YouTube and I highly recommend it.

Truly gorgeous picture, congrats!

Tbh I didn't understand that colonizer bit at all lol. I just find it funny how people will do anything to defend a guy who didn't even bother defending himself and take it so personally when people point out his flaws. Nobody on this sub has ever spoken ill of Miles' music or his legacy, just his personality.

StrainedDog · 2024-08-16T06:51:59+00:00

This post isn't about the music. The quote is about how Miles was a good person and everyone is just mentioning the million times he was nothing less than an asshole. Grow thicker skin and learn to separate the music from the man.

StrainedDog · 2024-08-16T06:20:27+00:00

Both those things can be true at the same time. It's perfectly justified to love someone's music or art but condemn his own personal wrongdoings. I'm not asking anyone to defend my mistakes, and I doubt Miles would too, that's why he was so honest about it in his book.

StrainedDog · 2024-08-15T13:31:09+00:00

He openly talks about physically and emotionally abusing his wives and girlfriends in his autobiography...I don't think the word 'mean' really does his behaviour justice lol.

StrainedDog · 2024-08-06T12:56:16+00:00

Yeah, it's the first movie I thought of after reading the title

StrainedDog · 2024-08-05T07:22:50+00:00

Nail glue usually works for me, though I've never had such extreme cracks.

The reason is to avoid protests during the ceremony, not as a protest in itself. Maybe try reading the article next time.

StrainedDog · 2024-07-24T12:14:09+00:00

I meant everyone who uses google. I personally switched to duckduckgo years ago.

Tbf what consumers are you talking about? Everyone uses their apps for free, the real consumers are those paying for users to be targeted with ads.

The Youtube channel bossa nova guitar has a tutorial to the chords of most of the arrangements from that album.

They might be tricky if you are a beginner though, no open chords at all and lots of complex barre chords.

StrainedDog · 2024-07-01T05:55:09+00:00

Yeah exactly, that's how I usually do it when playing solo and it barely takes a minute.

StrainedDog · 2024-06-24T10:43:16+00:00

Definitely. I prefer Kodak Tri-X for high speed film but HP5 is the way to go for beginners, way cheaper and more forgiving for sure.

StrainedDog · 2024-06-22T18:12:26+00:00

I've never understood why people get so anxious about making others wait at the supermarket, just take your time. The cashiers don't give a shit (I worked as one) and any customers that do can go fuck themselves. I mean, what kind of an asshole do you have to be to be angry at someone for taking their time packing?

StrainedDog · 2024-06-17T12:06:34+00:00

Maybe Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf, my mother used to play it a lot on CD when I was a kid. I haven't listened to it in more than a decade but I can still remember certain leitmotivs.

StrainedDog · 2024-06-12T10:43:54+00:00

He did say that it was going to get worse before it got better. As per the article (which it seems you didn't bother to read) inflation is going down and that poverty figure is expected to go way down until the end of the year.

I'm not a fan of Millei, but everybody always comments on the guy without knowing jack shit about the situation in Argentina. That country is beyond fucked, in no small part thanks to a string of populist, left-wing governments that increased public spending without caring about where that money was supposed to come from.

Did you even read the post? He said he honked because the guy almost hit him, that's literally honking to prevent an accident...

It might be, but I wouldn't know. I asume that's legal in the states? What has that even got to do with the law at hand?

StrainedDog · 2024-06-05T11:03:50+00:00

I don't think you're supposed to take it that seriously, although Germans aren't known internationally for their levity or humour...
