Watch the definitive guide to playing Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillos, taught by the composer himself! Throughout this lesson, Maestro Brouwer shares the keys to interpreting this monumental set of pieces the way he intended.

Start by learning the origins of these etudes including what initially motivated him to create the first five. Then, take a look at the technical and musical elements found in individual etudes including the Cuban ‘danzon’ rhythm featured in No. 5 and the overlooked arpeggio formula in No. 6. Finally, learn how to ‘construct’ your own interpretation using the multitude of musical materials at your disposal.

By the end of this lesson, you will leave with a new sense of direction when playing any of these studies, whether you are a beginning student or a world-class performing artist!
