Gaillarde par deppir

Again from the "Selectissima Carmina" for renaissance guitar, which Pierre Phalèse published in 1570. Not a perfect rendition, but that wasn't the goal. Currently I'm more concerned with making a recording under the same conditions with every instrument I own. And with building up enough self-confidence to record my music without suffering a heart attack because the red light goes on.

;-)

The instrument is a Rozini Paulistinha cavaquinho. It is a REALLY small Brazilian cavaquinho, obviously not built to play polyphonic music on it. It sounds best playing a single line. But you can hear such music elsewhere and I wanted to do something you WON'T hear on a cavaquinho elsewhere.
It has a nice sound when picked with fingertips. But unfortunately not a very LOUD sound, so I had to pick real hard in order to get it recorded with my webcam. Perhaps I will upload something else later, once I know how to record the sound separately with a good microphone.

We want your head! I don't play half as good as you but show my head! Am I so brave or....

[UkulelePoltergeist]

Dear crazy, wonderful, marvellous (and brave!) Jyottix!

My head? In the Salome-and-John-the Baptist kind of way? I would have been more careful in Sint-Niklaas, if I'd known you're into such things...

Liebe Grüße, Andreas.

Off with his Head!

Poltergeist are those that don't even try to go to heaven or hell....aren't they?

maybe because they don't dare!

Be careful very careful! Not only brave I am but also Dangerous!
