Sharon Isbin Interview & Lesson

ByBradford Werner
2012

A nice interview and series of lessons with Julliard teacher and performer Sharon Isbin. She covers: some basic biography of herself, technique in right and left hand, ornamentation, phrasing, her discography, plenty of exercises, talks about performance. Lots of examples and nice playing as well. About 36 mins altogether. If you’re looking for a technique book you can check out my review of classical guitar technique and exercise books.
