Thanks for a beautiful performance!

As someone who always depended on electric guitars and amps with reverb (in my younger days), I really appreciate how you are generating such a beautiful tone with just your fingers.

And with a great location like a church, you are getting a great natural reverb.

I was also noticing that you hardly get any squeaking when you move your left hand. I was just speaking with a classical guitarist and he said he was taught that you never slide your left hand along the strings. Can you tell me a little about that. I was not classically trained and I'm wondering if I can change that habit at this stage in my life.

Thanks for any help you can offer to me!

Thank you Mike B!

When it comes to the left hand squeaking I think the key thing is how much it disturb you. If it disturbs one make efforts to minimize it.

One can slide on the bass strings quite confortably using more left side of the fingertip (the side closer to the thumb). Of course everyone's natural dryness or moisture of the hands varies and affects squeking.
