Hi Jaxon, I am very happy you enjoy this unique ToneBase production at my home. Well it’s about what we can consider as playing Chopin if we were pianists. Tárrega was a trained pianist and he genius is that he succeed in recreating this unique and touching spirit on the guitar. Both in his performance and his composition. I can’t get tired of performing his mazurkas in my entire career. All the best for the New Year (with new La Leona videos…) Wulfin

It's not just the attack on the strings or the hand position but also the fact that Tarrega played latter in his life without nails (the sound changes completely, the piercing attack is gone) and the Torres was gut strung (a completely different touch and sound).

@WulfinLieske Год назад
Dear Bruno, I do agree absolutely. Still let me remark, that once we go back to the original form of his artistry we have to awake and kind of rebirth what we have enjoyed and learned with our own words and visions. Otherwise we would only need to listen Tárrega’s own recordings and interpretation (if they ever would exist) and art stands still. This is the challenge of all classical (notated) if we want to keep its masterpieces alive. My very best regards Wulfin

@@theodosios2615 Tarrega had 2 years to reajust his technique. Pujol met him after his 1st no nails recital. After Segovia it became rare to find no nails guitarists. For a no nails modern practice check Tommy Emamuel, steel strung guitar well amplified, not classical music.

@@CaptainPupu Lieber Captain, you put your compliments in wonderful words - thank’s a lot! Yes, art is more than plucking some nylon or animal strings. We get an inner emotional impact from the beautiful sound of the instrument itself. This inspires us to create a vision on the music with this sound. Then “plucking&grabbing” is guided by our brain and once we hear the result we counter check it with our initial vision how to perform. It’s a circle within microseconds, the faster and precise this works, the better. Well that’s it, couldn’t put it into easier words, sorry. Best regards Wulfin

I love Tarrega and this guitar. A few historical errors were made in this video that warrant correction: -The lute right hand position was thumb out (like guitar) for 200 years (1600-1800) which leads directly into classical guitar. He is referring to renaissance lute pre-1600. Common misconception. -Lutenists often used nails in the Baroque period too. - About historical pitch, read "the story of A" by Haynes. Pitch was relative until very recently and people played higher and much lower than 440 for most of history. - You are using synthetic strings and it would be lovely to hear this instrument played with gut as Tarrega would have heard it. It's a shame modern guitarists never experiment in this way. Edit: I don't mean to attack anyone. I like the video and the artist here. I'm just adding corrections to some common misconceptions.

Dear Brandon, thanks a lot getting into detail. My motivation to perform La Leona since about 1990 more than frequently was both to unlock the secret and to understand the genius concept of its construction and artistic utopia. So after establishing a repertoire of “early music”, such as Francesco da Milano, Luis Milan, John Dowland I was aiming to find new visions for interpretation Bach on the guitar, finding out that for my standards Torres is nirvana. Well finally I ended up performing almost any kind of repertoire including most of my own compositions. It’s the absolute and uncompromising quality of the musical diction which is unsurpassed. No matter if I use gut or nylon string, with or without nails, or 415 or 428 (as I do). It is more about inspired than about historical correctness. And want I learnt with the 1856 Leona I can take to Santos, Hauser guitar as well. She is my best mentor and musical ear-trainer. My compliments for your channel, Brandon and all the best for 2023!

P.s., I apologize for abruptly abandoning my previous message, Wulfin. I believe I was going to elaborate upon the grace and ease with which you share such wonderful swaths of knowledge regarding not only the whole of the guitar but that particular instrument that was crafted in the 1800s and that you've owned and performed with over the course of the last thirty years. Your mini documentary, my friend, has reignited the passion that I first felt as a child in the early seventies here in Seattle when I would sit out on my small family's back porch as my mother sang and played at the Maple Leaf Tavern across the street from our home. Elvis Greatest Fifty Golden Hits vinyl LP was the first time I was truly moved in an emotional way by listening to the playing of a guitar. I'd no idea who Scotty Moore or James Burton was. But I had 24-hour access to my mother's nylon stringed guitar, and I learned to tune the instrument by ear, of course, as there was no tablature in the back pages of Guitar Player Magazine. But I spent many an hour reading interviews with Julian Bream, Tal Farlow, Paco de Lucia, Lenny Breaux, Andres Segovia, etc. I'm sorry for rambling. It's been such a pleasure being sent upon this thrilling hunt for knowledge so new to me. Thank you very much.

As a very young and very amateur violin student years ago I could only dream of playing on a quality instrument. My parents could neither afford private lessons nor a quality instrument. It would have been much the same if I had wanted to study classical guitar. I gave up the violin to study architecture and I deeply regret not taking up the guitar at an early age. I have been enjoying the works of the many Spanish composers and the many professional musicians who perform their works worldwide. I enjoy these performances immensely. As an architect I was intrigued by the architecture and engineering principles of the design of the Tarrega guitar, and that of others, for that matter. Your discussion of the length of strings, the dimensions and volume of the body and the picking styles and how these things effect the sound is very informative. I did not hear anything about the wood or the string materials but that's another variable. I don't know if Tarrega's guitar or any other can be compared to "Paganini's Guarneri Canon" using these same criteria. However, I am certain that the performance room or hall acoustics would have a lot to do with the overall perception of the sound. A poorly designed concert hall would have devastating effects on any performance no matter how gifted the performer or the quality of the instrument. I have noticed that many artists today perform and record in ancient buildings with cavernous spaces and hard surfaces that can reflect or reverberate the sound. A mixing engineer can mitigate the acoustics of performing in these spaces but a live audience experience would be totally different in my opinion. I have always believed that a good architect orchestrates his designs in the same way that a good composer builds a symphony or a concerto. The same is true about a master craftsman constructing a fine instrument or one a fine piece of furniture. It's all about the principles. My apologies for the lengthy comment!!

Hi to all the aficionados out there, I would like to post some ideas on sound aesthetics of the classical guitar. Reacting on the entire bunch of your great comments, be them enthusiastic or critical, it’s about tuning, strings and nails. If you play on an Torres type instrument, low weight, low resonance and tune it around 430-435hz, perform romantic music with the “spirit of Tárrega (as I exposed in my substantial ToneBase tutorial, you will have a pretty dark and expressive melodious sound. This will be enhanced by the typically low string tension and action with very easy vibrato, slur, glissando. In my experience this goes perfectly on standard top quality nylon strings. I use SAVAREZ cristal, alliance (only for the 3rd) and Corum standard tension. Maybe you are a bit closer to gut with the good old Jimi Hendrix, sorry Segovia Red Augustine. Nylgut is another cup of tea (better no nails). If you have the right attack both apoyando and tirando (like John Williams for ex. ) and the equivalent perfect nail shape YOU ARE ON THE GOOD SIDE! If you are a nerd burning for authenticity or new adventures cut them off, get the expensive gut (great animals, though!) and here we go. That’s the good thing with all the crazy guitar folks around the planet, lonesome nerds at times - BUT HAPPY! And that’s how this great platform ToneBase and others can exist and are such valuable contributions to our “lonely heart-club-band”. Here we go, thanks for your patience and passion! Have a nice day/night Wulfin🎉

Hi Jeff, thanks a lot for your interesting question. In fact I had recorded my CD “El Canto de La Leona” with gut strings by SAVAREZ for 1st and 2nd. The remaining strings are SAVAREZ corum. I have experimented a lot with gut strings entirely. I recognized a slight profit for the trebles, but only for a few days since they do not like nail attack and start to fray, getting pretty rough and break. So I decided for entire stringing with SAVAREZ Cristal and Corum. The unique quality of La Leona remains in a slightly different shine but artistically absolutely convincing. Especially when tuning down to 428Hz and performing in the style of Tárrega. Finally we do not aim to go back, but to bring him into our present time keeping up with his style and spirit. La Leona has the chameleonesque ability to serve for many styles, even in the field of contemporary music. With my very best regards and all the best for 2023! Wulfin

@jeff110128 Год назад
@@WulfinLieske Your definitely right about gut strings getting chewed up quickly by nails. It is unfortunate because they are so expensive. When I first tried gut, I had long nails and that didn't work at all. Now I have short nails (the nails do not go past the end of the fingertip) and the tone is much better. Not sure if the string longevity is improved at all. I recorded a CD of Regondi on an early Romantic guitar. My intention was to use gut, and there is a fine maker of gut strings less than 3 hours from where I live. But I ended up using Aquila Ambra 800 strings. The trebles are Nylgut and the basses are rayon-core to simulate the silk-core strings historically used. Aquila also makes the Ambra 900 set, which is intended for Torres-style instruments. I also have a replica of Tárrega's Torres SE114, and I recorded some Tárrega on it with nylon strings. I have since put gut strings on that guitar (with the Aquila 900 rayon-core basses) and plan to re-record those pieces so people can hear the difference. All the same, thank you for your nice video!

Consider also aging of the wood, finish, and glue. Others have noted the gut/nylon string factors. It's also interesting to ponder how people of that time would have heard this instrument, not being conditioned as we are now to so much noise from machines or expectations due to the necessary limits of electrical transmission and reproduction. The consider the sort of situations where one might play for others. Indeed, it's not the same home.

I still have the recording after all these years on CD Rom, unfortunately, the encore piece he played is now unreadable, it was "Manha de Carnival". Great playing!
