To those thinking it's too fast. This movement represents the hustle and bustle of the fast paced city after walking out of the serenity of the cathedral, which is represented with the second andante movement. My interepretation is that it should sort of hit you in the face.

too fast=/

Those that can't...critique.

THIS is what I think music should be all about. Whether it's classical guitar or deathcore, as crazy as that sounds, it should be about the feeling.

listened to a lot of players of this piece....your playing is different in that you vary both the tempo AND volume thruout the piece....everybody else is constant speed and volume and they appear to be playing at the limit of their abilities.....you have something left which goes beyond the others ability to mechanically play the thing at the llimit of their skill.

Wow - -wonderful. Your tone and touch are fantastic.
