Leo Brouwer: Un Dia de Noviembre - Gergely Gembela

This melodic piece was the music in a film with the same title, and it is different from most other Brouwer pieces I hope I will be able to play later.

Greetings!

I would like to know what strings do you use?

excellent job by the way :)

@neontok1o Thanks for your comment. I can actually remember I used Savarez red/blue Corum (silver packet). I tried different strings after that, but for a year now I have only been using various types of Savarez as I won 16 sets at a competition last spring, and I like most types, they all have warm sound and most importantly they keep tuning very well. Greetings,

Gergely

Dear Gergely I really like your plaing, but I know that before you can play a song, you have to rehurse a lot.

Do you have enogh time for youself, time to play with children?

I hope you are not just pleasing just the whishes of you parents.

If they want you to play the guitar, ask them, if they are also willing to work so hard.

If they are not able to play, then they should ask themselves why?

I have voted with I like it not, because I do not like working children.

@MrInom Thank you for worrying about me. Yes, I work hard, I start the day, every day with playing the guitar for about 45 minutes. But in fact I enjoy doing it and would do more but actually my parents never let me sit practising more than an hour, they say it is bad for my back. I have other passions too: I love creating different kind of electric things, lights, train tracks, I go swimming, do folk dance and cycle a lot. My parents also work hard but they find time for me too.

great job gettin that 12th - 7th stretch! the little phrase based around 9th G which i think for you starts around 1:36 sounds a little fast, its a really poignant and emotional part which sounds fantastic played slower with heavy vibrato and really breaks the piece into a clearer structure

[gembela07062001]

@JackBad69 Thank you for taking your time and care about my improvement I really appreciate that. Yes, you must be right about that, I played that piece nearly two years ago and I liked the tune very much so I just wanted to play how I felt. And I didn't know how to do vibrato. I might decide to remove it and record it again some time later. Thanks again for your comment.

Hello, Gergley,

Wonderful work on this piece! Watching you play always puts me in a good mood and motivates me to go practice my guitar. I hope to learn this piece eventually because it is beautiful. Sincerely, Sherie in California.

@jordanviach Thank you for all that attention, you are really too kind. This piece is so touching, the musician has an easy job to interpret, so it is Leo Brouwer who should be praised for writing such wonderful music.

I love playing music but I am also passionate about electricity, mechanics, all sorts of wires and tubes and I don't think much about my future, just play...

All the best to you,

Gergely
