Leo Brouwer: Cancion de Cuna

MP3: Duration: 3:16 [3.0 MB]

This is not exactly a "canon". It's more a Passacaglia. The "vamp" D A Bm F#m G D G A. is repeated all the time with variations. I hope you like my version.

Drop D tuning.

Francisco Tarregas ''Capricho Arabe'' is in my opinion one of the most beautiful guitar pieces ever. The rhythm, melody, modulations and harmonies are just perfect.

John Dowlands''Lachrimae Antique Pavan'' is one of the most beautiful pieces for the lute. In my transcription I play it with a Capo in 3rd fret to give it the original key of G-Minor [played in E-minor]

Weiss and J.S. Bach probably met in Potsdam outside Berlin. They probably discussed, and agreed on that they got too little money from the king... :-) Bach and Weiss died the same year (1750) and at that time the baroque was really, REALLY out of fashion: they were the old guys! Dead boooring! It took over a 100 years until Felix Mendelssohn re-discovered the baroque and mankind realized the genius of Bach and his alike. Guitar tuning: D AF# C G D C (a second below a guitar and with the 3rd. str. tuned half a step down (Like a lute). My transcription at http://www.per-olovkindgren.com/ipnmonitor is adapted for standard guitar in renaissance tuning. (3rd. to F#)

My humble and grateful thanks go to John and Judy Rogerson that constructed, built and traveled to Copenhagen to give me this beautiful baritone guitar.
