Hi Costancr! There are so many different directions guitar can take you, its easy to get sidetracked! From my experience, you might want to cover the material in sessions 7 & 8, barre chords. You will need barre chords even for fingerstyle, so from what I see they are pretty important. As a matter of fact, session 10 really highlighted the fact that I needed a bit more work on my barre chords! When you start plucking just a single string and its buzzy, well... for me it was humbling. Maybe you can work thru 7 and 8 at the same time as you explore fingerstyle. But I wouldn't skip them right now. Those sessions can take a bit to work thru so getting started would be great! Steve just this week started a Wednesday Night workout for Barre Chords. It was great! I think the link is posted above... and there is a pdf handout for it. I'm very sure it would be helpful for you to watch! You can watch the first session then join us the next two weeks! The most important thing is that you are having fun learning!

The song Malaguena is covered in Session 5 of the fingerstyle course which is dedicated to classical guitar. I borrowed the old nylon string guitar of my sister-in-law to give it a try. Malaguena is a Spanish tune and is full of emotion, drama and passion. Thanks Greg - @gotto - for the great challenge theme. Wim.
