I have been playing acoustic guitar since childhood. I like when I listen to a piece that marvels me, then I work on it a few minutes every day for months, and eventually I start to render part of it good enough that I can find the same pleasure as listening but from the other side. One of my current study subject is Prelude n⁰1 by Heitor Villa-Lobos. https://youtu.be/Pmry5uquwDI
It’s such a classic, I played it some years ago when I still took classes. It’s not difficult on the left hand except the part where you have to slide a subset of fingers (around 1:13 in the video) while keeping your index planted I used to absolutely dread. Maybe that’s just me, in any case the version you linked is really excellent
