It is my hope that this carefully selected set of pieces will offer guidance and clarity to both students and teachers of classical guitar. Now that music is available in such quantity and ease it is more important than ever to have a clear path laid out that will offer the possibility to explore the repertoire without putting up walls of frustration along the way.After working with several thousand guitarists online it has become clear that studying a piece of music that is too difficult can be one of the biggest impediments to learning and also the joy of music making. More often than not, students who experience struggle will put themselves at fault. However, I believe that a curated selection of music that is arranged in a progressive manner can avert frustration, foster steady progress, and make for a joyful learning experience.At the heart of this collection is a desire to foster joy and a sense of accomplishment. It is that joy that most likely brought you to the classical guitar in the first place. Each piece has been chosen because of musical, technical, and pedagogical reasons. The collection as a whole makes up the repertoire component of the curriculum at Classical Guitar Corner Academy and has been worked on diligently by a dedicated community of guitarists around the world.This edition is in standard notation and contains 123 pages. There are 52 pieces in total. Each grade is clearly marked and each piece has a brief set of instruction to help with study and focus. Composers include: Fernando Sor, Francisco Tarrega, J.S. Bach, Napoleon Coste, Matteo Carcassi, Ferdinando Carulli, Agustin Barrios, Mauro Giuliani, Robert De Visee, Domenico Scarlatti, Gaspar Sanz and more.

Classical Guitar Technique: Essential Exercises, Scales, and Arpeggios (2019 Edition). Notation Only with Fingering, String Numbers, and Positions.122 Pages. Includes: Practice Routines, Tips, YouTube Lessons, 100 Open String Exercises, 120 Giuliani Arpeggios, Selected Scales (Major, Minor, 3rds, 6ths, Octaves, 10ths), Slur Exercises, Shifts, Finger Independence, Alignment, Stretch, Barre, Tremolo, Common Harmonics, Speed and Relaxation, and more. This book focuses on essential exercises for the development of classical guitar technique. All the exercises from the headings of the table of contents progress from easy to advanced in a progressive format. Although this is a book of exercises rather than a method, I have included many helpful tips throughout the book to aid students. As with all my materials, the video lessons are an added educational advantage.Intended for beginner to early-advanced classical guitar students (approximately RCM Toronto Grade 1-9). As a basic prerequisite students would have completed both Volume One and Two of my beginner method book series or an equivalent. There are a number of exercises in upper positions that include accidentals, therefore, additional reading experience is required if you wish to study the entire book. The inclusion of fingering, string numbers, and position marks should make the exercises easy to understand. The 100 open string exercises should be very accessible to beginners and advanced students alike.
