This is me playing the last movement (Presto) of Koyunbaba, piece written by the italian guitarist and composer Carlo Domeniconi....

The following are the informations about the story of the piece as it is shown on Wikipedia: "Domeniconi possibly is most well known for his 1985 piece Koyunbaba. The name is actually Turkish and literally translates as "sheep-father" (koyun-baba), or "shepherd", some sources also translate it to "the spirit of the sheep", but also refers to many other things, including a 13th century mystical saint-like figure whose grave is decorated with coloured bits of cloth by Turkish villagers seeking his help with family problems. "Koyunbaba" is also the family name of his descendants, who still reside in the area, and the name of a wild, dry region of Southwest Turkey. According to local legend, the area is seemingly cursed - numerous people who have attempted to rent or purchase the land from the Koyunbaba family have died or fallen ill. Domeniconi has referred to two specific examples: one was a German woman who wanted to keep the area in its natural and unspoiled state, but was soon stricken with cancer. The other was one of three sons of the Koyunbaba family who suddenly sold some of the land, but then hanged himself."

Koyunbaba Suite:

1) Moderato
2) Mosso
3) Cantabile
4) Presto

I hope you will like it!!! :-D

  • This actually very good. You got every voice to speak extremely well and you had a very nice tempo. Next time though watch for tone on higher notes, but I might be hearing harshness because of the sound quality not for your playing. I enjoyed it a lot overall.

  • @BlackieSteele
