Default An Slovakian parlor in a Spanish monastery

Hello from Spain. my name is Manolo Rosa.
I want to share with you this video, it´s a nice visual work made by a friend of mine.
I play a composition of mine in a Dowina Bona Vida Merlot, an excellent and exquisite little guitar made in Slovakia. The tuning is DADGAD.
The piece it is called "En Tierra de Campos", an evocation of a Spanish region full of cereal fields and beautiful colors.
It is a live recording, with the acoustics of these ancient walls, in Santa Maria de Rioseco, Burgos.

I hope you like it.
Thanks again to you for all I learn in this fantastic forum.

All the best.
Manolo

Hi Manolo,

A beautiful and compelling piece played in an intriguing setting.
Great atmosphere in both.

I confess that I have never visited the northern part of Spain. but I love the little hill villages. Thank you for the music.

Una pieza hermosa y convincente interpretada en un entorno intrigante.
Gran ambiente en ambos.

Confieso que nunca he visitado el norte de España. pero me encantan los pequeños pueblos de las colinas. Gracias por la música.

Gracias del bigote tonto

Default Greetings from New York...!!!

Hello Manolo,

That is a beautiful setting and a beautiful piece of music you composed.

I especially liked your performance, how you mix the notes and chords, and how you use space and pauses.

Great job!

Hello MikeB1.
I only know your city from the movies, but I think it must be one of the most fascinating places in the world
Thank you very much mate for your nice words.
This is a very open composition, with impro lines in the middle.

I really appreciate your comments on the performance.
I play guitar with a mix of classical technique and John Abercrombie´s finger style.
I love the space and the pauses, open time: the resonance of the acoustic guitar lives there. It is a direct influence of sakuhachi Japanese music and from the taksim of Turkish music: no pulse, resonance, pauses, space

Thank you very much again, Mike
All the best.
Manolo
