Hi @Wim VD1,  Another fab recording, you never cease to amaze me, you really are becoming an accomplished  allround player.  I'm familiar with Yoni, he is one of those jaw dropping players who seem to be able to play all instrument parts at once!  I've noticed that now he also gives tabs and lessons. He only posted himself performing his arrangements before.😊

Thank you, @Simira.

Some great covers and arrangements from Yoni Schlesinger can be found on YouTube, Brothers In Arms being my favourite.

I need to study his percussive slapping technique. He adds this snaredrum sound to his fingerstyle playing, that makes it even more interesting.

Wim.

I recently read a quote from country icon Vince Gill that all he ever sought from music was to be moved by it. Listening to your recording, one of my all time favorite songs, I was truly moved . The song is deeply emotional, provocative and thought provoking to begin with, and you captured and framed all of that essence in a brilliant interpretation. Thank you so much for sharing your music with us. should you choose to create an album of songs, lt me be the first on your list to purchase it.

Greg

Wow Greg, that's the nicest compliment to get. Thank you.

Nowadays more than ever, with so much ugliness and harshness in the world around, I seek for beauty and emotion in music. I am glad to be able to share it on this platform here.

Wim.

Wow @Wim VD1! That's amazing! And inspiring!
Hope someday soon I can play it as well.

Great job!

Thanks, Joao,

I gave the same Brothers In Arms arrangement a go on electric guitar today. I actually like it more than the acoustic version, because of the better sustain and articulation.

Well played Wim. Your musicality was excellent with this piece. Clarity of notes, tempo, feel and all the little technics used to play this were superb! Well done and thank you for moving me with this song!

I wanted to record something this month but there is still too must dust and dirt in what is our new music room in the making, so please forgive me for submitting an old recording, Beethoven's Ode to Joy on a 12-string.

That's a swinging rendition, and it sounds great on a 12-string!

While I have been super busy with the Jazz Standards Academy course, I decided to record an acoustic version of Fly Me to the Moon.  Just me, my acoustic, and mic.  Thanks.

Sorry this is so late. I didn't think there was a recording challenge this month because I kept looking at the top of the page and it was showing last month's challenge, but today I stumbled upon this month's. It very poor quality, my phone bit the dust so I'm just using the camera and mic from my computer.
