Whatever you say, Maestro.  It's not gospel, nor blues, nor the imprecise combination you suggest.  There are all sorts of pentatonic scales, after all.

I think you err, pal.  Harrison took a few lessons on sitar in India from Pandit Ravi Shankar but that's about the extent of your comparison.  This is a collaborative cross-cultural exercise.

I don't believe there's much room for political ideology in music, apart from lyrics.  Not that I believe, as I've said previously, you have a very firm grip on my ideologies.

My grandfather was a renowned exponent of the electric guitar in the UK, even having an article about him published in "Variety".



My father played electric guitar in Glenn Miller style "big bands" in the 50's.



I am living proof that musical adeptness is not transferable by DNA.

Quote from: "Bricktop"===My father played electric guitar in Glenn Miller style "big bands" in the 50's.===

Electric guitar in the big band era was not your solidbody guitar of today, but typically a big ass archtop guitar, with a mag pickup added.  Before Charlie Christian (i.e., prior to WW2) they had to be played acoustically.  In my childhood nobody wanted an archtop guitar because it didn't have the warm sweet tone of a flattop, but in recent years those old archtop beasts have had a renascence.  See my post at the top of page 2, this thread.

Where did you find this gem Peaches. :thumbup:


I was listening to some tracks by the late Nubian oud master Hamza El-Din, and it showed up in the right hand column of suggestions.  I was intrigued by the santur (hammered dulcimer) since I only know that as an Appalachian instrument.  YT excursions are like that for me, filled with happy surprises and accidents.



Here is Hamza El-Din.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wr33LGQhqkc





The lyrics to Hinech Yafa (You Are Beautiful) ...roughly translated:



In my bed, it's been weeks

Since I wished for my loved one

And I could not find him

I have searched all around the city streets

This full-of-lies city

And I could not find him

 

I was found by the guards

Who patrol the city

But my loved one, I have yet to find him

 

But I will not let him go

Until I bring him to my city

To my mother's home and into my room

Into my bed

 

You are so beautiful, my wife

And your lips are like a crimson string

Your teeth are white

Like the light of the moon

 

Who is this girl that's rising from the desert

From a faraway land

Carried upon a mighty bird's wing

Coming to my home

 

You are so beautiful, my wife

I am captivated by your eyes

Which are burning me

Like roaring flames

 

Who is this girl that's rising from the desert

From a faraway land

Carried upon a mighty bird's wing

Coming to my home

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVpnr8dI_50

 :confused1:


The Toccata in D minor, Op. 11 is a piece for solo piano, written by Sergei Prokofiev in 1912 and debuted by him late in 1916 in Petrograd.  It's one of his early pieces.



It is an extremely difficult, demanding showpiece that is very popular with virtuoso pianists and has been recorded by many.  However, I've not seen a performance on this level of virtuosity by any other pianist.  Not only does she play it with great precision, she extracts all the delicacy and melodiousness of it at the same time.  If you watch the other members of the orchestra while she plays, you can easily see how flabbergasted some of them are.



I can't say I "like" the piece although I appreciate it.  For that matter, I'm not a huge fan of the composer either.  



But I like to think I can be seduced by skill and genius when I see it and hear it, and she is my Genius of the Week.

Here's a piece on the builder.  Jose Luis Romanillos is probably the most highly regarded luthier alive, and it's easy to see why.  Most good instruments have serial numbers, but many of his instruments have NAMES.  This one is known among classical guitarists as "la Culé".

Grondona has also written a scholarly book on guitar construction, which is now out of print.

It's a lovely piece and his interpretation has charm.  BUT HIS GUITAR.... hair-raisingly awesome instrument   ac_wub



Here's a piece on the builder.  Jose Luis Romanillos is probably the most highly regarded luthier alive, and it's easy to see why.  Most good instruments have serial numbers, but many of his instruments have NAMES.  This one is known among classical guitarists as "la Culé".

Grondona has also written a scholarly book on guitar construction, which is now out of print.

This spellbinding piece shall be played at my funeral. The composer wrote it specifically for my life. In it you can hear birth, christening, youth, vigor, passion, desire, ecstasy, dreams, hope, fulfillment, loss, discovery, joy, sorrow, acceptance, deep love, and finally peace.

I've never seen the opera, and don't know any of the score except this intermezzo.  When I was in junior high, we played an arrangement of it for concert band, and my euph part was very juicy.  I've always remembered it fondly, except for its name or the composer's.  Haven't heard it in ages, thank you.

If you don't have thirty minutes, just catch the end of the first mvt (8:30 - 11:00.)

Peter Green with his legendary guitar, about 1966.

"The Holy Grail of Tone" as Santana calls it.

I don't recall if I've posted Molly Tuttle in this thread.  She's a bluegrasser, an adequate and engaging vocalist, and one of the top ten acoustic guitarists (regardless of style) in the US.

It's not the types of music I usually listen to, but I don't dislike this video. Variety is good.

Thanks for asking.  I'm doing pretty well all things considered.  But some say that open heart surgery somehow changes one in neurological ways.  



While I don't agree, I do think it does change the way one sees one's place in the world, and the indistinct boundaries between life and death.



Don't know how else to put that, but maybe this casts some light.

We have two gentlemen in our congregation that have had the same surgery that you had..



They said similar things about the operation.

Such a Creole sound



Such a Creole-like woman



N i c e



Austin City Limits has had the best of several genres and artists over the years .. It was great for me as I enjoys many genres and it mixed them up well





Which brings up my questions - Is it still in operation? If so what network?

 It does not show on my subscriptions .. just tested with "search" again & NADA



Used to be regular Saturday night fare on PBS

It's the longest running music show EVER, now in Season 46.  Still on PBS.



It's on hiatus at the moment due to COVID-19, and tapings thru at least June 15 have been canceled or postponed.  If you have a jones, though, the RS Rock n Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland has 40 years of shows archived and (one assumes) available for streaming, although I've not checked it out.



P.S.  Oh, and Rhiannon Giddens is a bloody genius who can hang musically with absolutely anyone and handle any styles.  She is so busy with projects she's already done the output of a 40 year career, yet she's probably still in her twenties.

I searched for ACL and hall of fame connection - came up with following: (Answer is underlined)



"Austin City Limits" gifted the collection to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame but retains the ability to access and use the footage and other items as needed. The hall will digitize the entire collection, including associated documents. "The tapes are deteriorating," said KLRU President and General Manager Bill Stotesbery. "They will put them into proper storage, and they will be less prone to fire and deterioration."



"Austin City Limits" will continue adding materials from future episodes to the archive. The two organizations are still in the process of determining how the archived material will be made available for the public to view or access.



For nearly 40 years, "Austin City Limits" has helped put Austin on the map as a music town by showcasing high-caliber performers across a variety of genres. Willie Nelson performed on the pilot, which was taped on Oct. 14, 1974, and aired during the following year's PBS pledge drive. The show has endured, holding the record as the longest-running music program in American television history.



Leonard Cohen, Arcade Fire, Ray Charles and scores of other iconic musicians have performed on the show over the years. Bonnie Raitt, Mavis Staples and Philadelphia rock band Dr. Dog will tape episodes of the show's 38th season in upcoming weeks. "This program mirrors our mission and the music we celebrate," Stewart said.



In 2003, the National Endowment for the Arts awarded the National Medal for the Arts to "ACL," the only television program to earn that honor, and the show won an institutional Peabody Award earlier this year.
