surfpup Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 SO... I'm relearning Greensleeves for Christmas, and I gotta hand it to you guys that can play classical guitar. It's just so unintuitive after years of blues-based rock playing. And this contrapuntal movement crap... What's up with that? Seriously, I love the sound, but it just runs contrary to my learned instincts. Maybe one day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketman Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Going the other way isn't easy either. I grew up a classically trained pianist who converted to jazz around the age of 15. From that point forward every classical piece I played had a swing to it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
