Most indicated song to learn on classical guitar in two to three weeks?

I’m not much experienced with my classical guitar, but I need to prepare something for the exam at the end of the year, as I just found out. I don’t know what to choose, cause I haven’t practiced enough so far in able to play a too complicated song. I like nice melodies, very fond of Francisco Tarrega, but can’t estimate the difficulty of the songs… Can anyone offer a suggestion?

Well, it depends in what way do you play the guitar. If…

-You fingerpick (which would be awesome), I would recomend either "California Dreamer" by the Mamas and the Papas, which you could see how is it played lookin for it on YouTube: "California Dreamer Michael Chapdelaine". Or "I want to break free" by Queen, which you look for it as: "I Want To Break Free Naudo".

-If you wanna use tabs and do a solo, I would recommend the famous "Canon Rock" or "Beethoven Virus". You look for them too in YouTube. Maybe also the Super Mario Theme. I ll give you the links below the answer.

-If you wanna do a cover, I would Recommend "No Reply" by the Beatles, or "Angie" by the Rolling Stones.

Hope this helped!

    Yes, I have a good one. Last Christmas I played a Guitar Mass. One of the pieces I picked was: "Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring" by J. Sebastian Bach… If ever a song was written for Guitar, that is the one, even though I have the Piano version so there is no Guitar marking for the music. I assume you can read music and this is not all that difficult a piece, but if you can play it you will be happy you made the effort

    I still play it about once a week simply because I enjoy playing it… You can find it in just about any book of Christmas music.

    I don’t know exactly what your looking for or how long it has to be, but this is a nice piece by Isaac Albeniz. I could only find the first part. The beginning is easy. I’m sure you could find the rest somewhere else online. Try it out: http://guitarteacher.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/asturias.jpg
