Incredible performance,♫♪♫♪

[VegaLeyffinen]

It's really a very nice comment, thank you!

reminds me recuerdos de la alhambra, maybe for the tremolo but i think there's something more

[VegaLeyffinen]

This kind of single string ordinary tremolo makes it sound a little like Recuerdos ..., because there aren't so many tremolo pieces played so often. Also something in the beginning reminds Recuerdos, as well as both pieces are in A-minor.Generally speaking the themes are different and Rak's piece contains chromatics which Tarrega's song doesn't.I warmly suggest you to find this:Stepan Rak:Remembering Prague (Chandos 1988)-it's something incredible,continuous tremolo with three strings etc.

Thanks a lot for your kind comment. I have a lot of Rak's music and I'll upload that in future, but not just yet, because my summer is full of other things but guitar playing, which is anyway, indeed, something I deeply love.

Great stuff! It is more exciting than Recuerdos and more challenging too. Another composer to put on my waiting list ;) Do you happen to know if there are any easier pieces written by him?

[jakaput]

so how does the 5 finger technique work? Is it like tremolo but with pinky : P pinki a m i ?

Great playing... How long did it take to get used to the motion of frequency of which you are picking the strings?

[dedosdigital]

Thank you for putting yourself up playing this wonderfull piece , which you play well . I am a luthier , I live in Japan , have introduced Rak to players , and they are not interested , a mystery . Rak is one of the great ones

and not known as he should be .
