Last week, I mentioned doing more classical work. We've been pretty occupied this week, but I had time to lay down one of my favorite pieces. It's a horribly complex piece, but fun to play once you master it.

I doubt we'll be here late tonight. So, rock on!

Beautiful. What brand guitar is that?

That's just a GC32C. That's all I have down here for classical guitar.

Glad ya liked it! I was saying last week that I needed to do some. They actually take less time than the normal music we've been doing, so that helps quite a bit.

This week's piece is a challenging piece, but it came out okay - I think. Well, at least so far folks like it.

That's totally delightful. It's like some kinda dance song they'd play back in the day for those cool dances they had in France and old time Europe.

It's a wonderful song once you figure out how to play it. It has a weird sort of rhythm that goes with it, but once you learn it then it just sorta fits - like it's the natural thing to play in those circumstances. On the complexity scale, it's pretty high up there - but it's worth learning.

Outstanding as usual. Bright and lovely and so skillfully played.

It's a wonderful piece, as are many of Diabelli's works. I'm glad ya liked it - and was pretty sure you would like it.

It's an advanced piece on the piano, and a monstrously difficult piece on the guitar. It required some practice runs (and a bit of remembering) before I could play it at the quality needed for public consumption. There are a ton of 'runs' and they're all different. If you mess one up, you might just as well start over.

Even with the time spent practicing, it was still quicker than doing a full piece with all the different instruments.

Music like this, with your skills, deserves to stand alone with out any other instruments. It allows the listener to focus on both qualities. Of course loud, raucous Rock has it's place and is fun and thrilling but this kind of music/playing is a whole higher level of enjoyment.

Oh shit, did I just practically say "turn that shit down in there, kids". Lol, where did the years go?

This sounds great! Awesome playing man. I don't know who Diabelli is but a lot of this one reminds me of Mozart. You killed it man. Excellent playing. Fuck yeah!

Awesome playing man.

But of course!

It's a delightfully hard piece on a piano. On a guitar, it's hard as fuck. Anton Diabelli died in the mid 1800s. So, you wouldn't know 'em. I told you that earlier. It's pretty obscure, especially on guitar.

I am not familiar with him at all, but I did listen closely three or four times already and you just don't miss a fucking note... incredible!
