Post Theme from Gymnopedie No. 1 - Satie
Hey everyone, I'm unfortunately a day late from my usual schedule. Yesterday was a particularly busy day for me and I was unable to get around to posting this week's performance until today. This week, on request from a close friend of mine, I have for you the theme from Gymnopedie No. 1 by Eric Satie. This piece explores sustain technique as well as arranging for 2 voices in the right hand. As usual, tabs and a performance breakdown are available at http://www.patreon.com/jgoldbergmusic. Enjoy!

Sounds great, Josh. I learned one of these a few years back. It sounds beautiful to the ear, but the hands can not stand the restraint involved while playing it!

Another favorite of mine is Gnossienne No. 1. Here's a clip of someone playing it on the stick.

I saw the late Roland Dyens play Gnosienne No.1 in a concert 16 years ago. I can still remember him playing this one....a delight to the ears. This is on classical guitar. This song may work well on the stick....the bass going on in the background...right hand solos. If anyone transcribes it for stick, please post.
