In this classical guitar lesson, we take a look at some of the common and not so common left hand techniques used in Francisco Tarrega’s “Lagrima”. Please see Part 1 for the Right Hand Lesson.
Some of the concepts covered in the lesson are -
reducing “squeaks” when sliding fingers
left hand preparation
barre technique
effortless shifting
I hope you get some ideas from this lesson for your own playing.

Thank you for your very useful lessons on this piece. I picked up lots of things my guitar teacher didnt tell me!
How do you record such a beautiful tone? When I record my guitar, it doesn’t sound as good as in real life. I use a Samson C15 condenser mic about 2 ft in front of the guitar and a Tascam 122L amplifier.
Many thanks,
Jim.

i have never played lagrima, but your tricks are really helpfull for any music, i´m agree with the hands preparation, it gives security and achievement in performance. another thing i think is important to note and you didn´t mention it, is that in the big shifts you move your elbow first and so the hand arrives exactly where it goes, in slow pieces one can´t feel it but in a faster… thanks Mr. Kevin for your videos, they are great.. greetings from colombia.
