Jazz for aficionados
Alex, I appreciate your efforts, the music you submitted is good jazz, but you've already submitted the only music that's able to conjure up memories of the "South Side" that John Wright's music conjured up. That magic time came and it went, leaving only John Wrights music to conjure up it's memory, which is why his music is so valuable to all the people who lived in that time and place. I really liked 'Moanin', Live At The London House, Chicago, 1961. Thanks for your efforts. |

Today's Listen: The Gene Harris / Scott Hamilton Quintet -- AT LAST Skimpy notes, mostly about how the recording session came about. SACD. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gV2jJHYxr-s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PsClCYYRDc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYxGGRwyE5g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmYWt5ucTz8 Gene Harris never made a bad record.

schubert...I do not think that she is actually playing it. Recuerdos is a challenging piece to perform (well) on a classical guitar. It takes time to learn it on the level of the beginner, more time to learn it on the intermediate level, years to learn it on advance level and many devoted years to master it. The piece is hard because of left hand position which is not easy and right hand tremolo technique which is challenging classical guitar technique for many classical guitarists. In tremolo one plays bass notes with the thumb followed by three (or two depending on the chosen technique) repeated higher notes, plucked with the ring, middle and index finger. Although you must not move your right hand but fingers only, you can see that fingers are dancing at the player that actually performs the tremolo. |
