Second technique session: Estudio, by Emili Pujol

Emili Pujol, a prominent Tarrega’s pupil, was the person who collected his teachings in several books. But in plus, he designs a singular method to learn guitar based on his own work as a performer and as a teacher. This method is the best I know, and I recommend always have on hand, because it is very effective. With it, we will work both the right and left hands, from the beginning

Their method was published in four volumes in a single bilingual edition (so far) in French and Spanish. The substantial part of the method is in volume II and III, the remainder being contributions on the history of the guitar.

Emilio Pujol: Escuela razonada de la guitarra : basada en los principos de la técnica de Tárrega Type: Spanish : Book Publisher: Buenos Aires : Ricordi Americana, ©1954. OCLC 55156339

This book is hard to find today, and for this reason, and as a exception, I had included a copy of the score here.

As you will found, it is a music to be played daily. Enjoy it!
