In addition, the virtuoso show their true skills as a musician by extremely communicative (read:. Jew others listening) complement each other, or "just" Unisono licks celebrate that are so tight that one sometimes almost thinks only one (doubled ) Guitar hear!
Thus, point 1 "ticked": respect for the rights of the three playful skill you have to muster,
in fact it leads absolutely no way. We hear the status of what is possible - and no less ...
... However, and here to share the spirit, so that you end up with the crucial question:
What is "music"?
The correct scale, the correct timing, and to get them in speed of sound - because my speech is richer by talking faster? If the experience of the / listeners / in blissful when reproduction is technically absolutely immaculately presented?
You play so quickly into the trap: Quick (sry; o!) Is one that is arrived at a point where one of the means of expression "Speed" deprives himself, to transport about to emotional relationships - and therefore almost a "history in notes "to tell.
This is my criticism of Friuli N8 in SF.
The game technical mastery of musicians (the one immediately hears) nurtures hopes for an "exciting story", an emotional experience beyond the played sound material.
To put it bluntly: Fri-N8 in SF's most technically still the biggest guitar work for me.
But it leaves me every time in a state dull ecstasy back - and more, I can not take away from this album. That each of the guitarists involved is above suspicion, to have nor anyone prove anything playful, is reflected in the irrepressible joy of playing, also makes it any easier, the disappointment to put away about what could have been ...
Addendum:
As before, I have the greatest respect for the participating musicians!
34 years guitar experience on my part are also sure at least somewhat helpful to the presented high performance of virtuoso to give appropriate recognition. I, too, was once on the "speed trip" ... but now wrestle me 'technically limited' musicians with strong emotional appeal in the lecture more respect from.
Thanks for reading and understanding of my subjective opinion.
.... Then I'll go again play my blues - preferably only with purely pentatonic scales (5 tones consisting only of, ie 7 tones less than the "normal" major / minor scales) ...
