    I have been Maam Wittingham's admirer for years now. And I like the fact that She shares to everyone her talent in classical guitar but the most amazing is that She does not judge others. She is a very humble person given that her perfectionism is transparent. I really thank and appreciate her so much. Her techniques are something all of us can learn about. I am an admirer with very little knowledge of music but I can gladly say that Maam Alexandra Whittingham is the most talented classical guitarist in the world

    This video is really helpful. I have bad tremors and still looking for the right way to warm-up properly. If I start warming up in some "wrong" ways it'll prevent me from practicing efficiently. So thank you so much for this!

    Great tutorial, I did a very similar warm up for my Rt hand, however your warm routine up is far more thorough than mine.

    The more I watch Alexandra the more I want to turn toward classical guitar. My fluidity of my right hand is so much better than my left so I feel the picking would be easier for me , it's the left hand stretches I would struggle with . Great tutorial Alexandra. Thank you so much for sharing your craft with us.

    Thank you Alexandra! I have been following your channel for a few months now, I love your videos, they are kind of addictive! Your repertoire is still beyond my reach, but these instructive videos of yours are pure gold. That finger pattern you show at the end, to work with different accents, is the same used by Villa-Lobos in the Etude No.1, isn't it?

    ¡Hola Alejandra! 🤗 Excelentes sugerencias para emparejar el sonido de los los dedos de la mano derecha. 😀
    Veo la posición en que sostienes la guitarra sin usar las manos y me gustaría saber si utilizas algún implemento para apoyarla en tu pierna y cómo lo puedo conseguir. 😄
    He observado que en algunas piezas usas un banco de pie para elevar tu pierna izquierda y en otras un soporte sobre tu pierna para elevar la guitarra ¿Es por cuestiones de interpretación de cada pieza o hay alguna otra razón para cambiar la forma en que la sostienes?🤔
    Quiero decirte que te admiro profundamente porque eres la primera persona que escucho tener una técnica perfecta con una interpretación excepcional. 🥰
    Me impresiona tu juventud y tu "tranquila e inteligente vitalidad". Para ser tan joven e imprimir un sonido tan claro y limpio en cada nota, se necesita haber desarrollado rápidamente una conciencia plena de la intención interpretativa que deseas para cada obra que surge de tí. 💯
    Gracias por compartir tu limpieza de alma y tu gran sabiduría 😇 Nunca pensé posible tomar clases contigo ¡Estoy emocionada! 🙃 Vida plena y parabienes ⚘

      HI there, towelie. I've always had very weak fingernails. And I have work and hobbies that keep them too short for guitar. Also I bite them off. So I've never used fingernails to play. I really like the tone. It's darker and warmer than with nails.
      The tips of my fingers on my right hand are callused because of playing like this so often.
