Accurate interpretation by maurclem * VSM MEMBER * on February 2021

True to the original score but quite a difficult piece to master

Good ideas by luciano iores da rosa on August 2018

When a i mad, i play guitar and that music is beautifull, my soul stay full of good ideas, thanks a lot.

Pretty Piece by David B Villeneuve on March 2016

The piece is beautiful, but it isn't exactly "easy guitar". It starts becoming somewhat difficult for less experienced players on the second page. My son's teacher believes it goes to about a grade 7 or 8 level at that point.

Joy to Play by Stuart Worth on March 2012

This piece of music is and will always be a timeless favourite for the expert intermediate and beginner musician.

OK for a beginner...with a teacher by Fary on March 2012

I found somme of the fingering difficult (I'm a beginner) and my instructor had to tell me how to interpret 9/8 time.

I enjoy trying this piece

I love this song by Alexalcan on August 2007

Although mostly for personal reasons, such as it being the first complete piece I played in a concert, this is truly a happy but spiritual song that moves all around me when I play it.
I dont know if it's Jesus, but it IS a Joy for all men and women, I beleive. By the way, I purchased this because my teacher gave it to me years ago and I lost it, and this sheet was exactly as I remembered it!
