How to sit and cradle the guitar delicately with William Kanengiser and his inept cameraperson!

This is mainly for Joan:

 I ran across this video a while ago, and it's great for all levels of classical guitar. I just wanted you to have another perspective on positioning and seating for the classical guitar, and Will does a great job explaining it, though he does seem like he's making it up as he goes.

You'll want to skip ahead to 5:30 in the first video and stop the second one when he starts talking about things that are...not..positioning. However, it is a great video and well worth watching as much or as little as you like. I apologize for the quality; there are other clips of this video that are much better quality, but they don't include the positioning part.

Welcome!

Welcome all! This blog is for all the guitar students studying with me, who is Cristian Lee Buzzell (esquire pending). Here I will post important announcements, information, links, music, lessons, and jokes that are crucial to your guitar education. I will try and organize it so it's as easy to navigate for each person individually, but since I'll probably address each of you individually in posts it's always a good idea to CTRL+F and search for your name when a new post comes up.

In any case, I look forward to studying with all of you and wish you the best of luck! And remember:

Practice. Practice! PRACTICE!
