I picked this up to supplement the work I'm doing in Werner's Vol. 2 Method Book, along with the Repertoire Book 1 and the Technique book. Like everything I've bought from Werner Editions, this is collection is great and well worth the modest cost, especially considering the excellent video lessons that accompany it.

Thank you so much, Bradford Werner, for making classical guitar study available to those of us in locations where personal instruction is difficult to come by. Your site is the best resource out there, no contest.

More or less perfect in terms of the quality of the transcription and ease of purchase. Great clarity too with regard to the video which is focused and helpful. The rest of the website and its contents are a goldmine for classical players of whatever level. And thank you for being considerate enough to include tab for those of us who don't read notation.

It resembles Spanish romances but is considerably easier to play (especially part B in E major). Together with the video on YouTube, this piece is relatively easy and very fun to play.

How can one go wrong? It’s free. Use it as the basis for building embellishments around it.

Hi Bradford,

Still learning the Karl Scheit arrangement with drop D tuning on the 6th string. After I master that I’ll work on your arrangement and let you know how that goes. Cheers! Brian Garby. (I gave it 5 stars because none of your arrangements have ever disappointed).

I've been following along with the Werner site ever since Covid. I wish I had found it sooner, might have prevented a lot of bad habits creeping in. As a returning Classical Guitarist, I went back to basics using primarily Werner method/site and resources as a guide and it was like putting on your favourite warm cosy jumper. The advice echoed much of what I was taught back in the day. By far the best feature is hearing and seeing the easy pieces (so called ) played to a very high standard which provides a good guide to performing a piece not just playing to fill the sound space and all at the touch of a button whatever time of day. The guidance is always clear and concise and allows you to make your own informed decisions about what best suits your level.

The curated repertoires so far have been about spot on each one pushing a little further with musical Knowledge and technical ability. I'm about to embark on this collection of Grade 5 lessons and I'm sure like the others before will enjoy the journey as much as the reaching the destination.
Thanks so much to Werner and all that support him .. I know how hard it is to make just one good video :-)

you provide a fabulous resource....

Excellent compilation of classical songs for Grade level. An opportunity to expand repertoire and improve playing.

It’s a beautiful piece! Easy to okay and easy to listen to . Glad I downloaded it

I purchased the edition after watching your video on scales. I had just been running through 2 octave scales and not really seeing any improvement in my practicing . I am now focusing on the scale exercises in the addition and I believe I am slowly seeing improvement in the exercises as well as my playing .

While my focus is scales at the moment, the table of contents elaborates what could be a solid daily practice routine.

I am enjoying the edition immensely, and highly recommend it.

Note - just as a point of reference I am somewhere around early intermediate to intermediate.

Brad is an excellent teacher. This book pairs with videos for each scale! Perfect for a beginner like me and I can see how even an advanced player would benefit from how this book is organized.

Brad Werner is a fantastic teacher. Having videos to view while learning and mastering these scales is incredible. I am a beginner and am so inspired by all of Brad’s videos and lessons.

...but some really helpful notes and exercises to help guide your practice. Drawing attention to the most challenging sections is particularly useful, as it is a guide to whether the piece will be appropriate to your level of learning.

Enjoying learning this.I am still a beginner (been playing classical for 9 months) following Bradfords work books,and others. This is a good arrangement and is manageable with practice.It also helps with shifting and barre techniques. Highly recommended.

As usual, well thought out for the level it is addressing, while covering a diverse group of musical periods. Make's an early student feel they are accomplishing something.

I love this! It's unusual. I'm enjoying getting to grips with the timing. Thanks Bradford
