Ricardin Hwang

a melody to remember

This is the poster of A melody to remember, a movie based on a true story: During the Korean war a soldier starts a children’s choir, in trying to overcome the loss of his family.

Ricardin Hwang, the South-Korean guitarist I told you about earlier is playing the guitar in the soundtrack.

Ricardin, in South Korea better known as Min Woong Hwang, plays beautifully. Listen to a fragment of the soundtrack. Or watch this video, taken during a concert of Ricardin, last December.

Ricardin Hwang

This is Ricardin Hwuang, a classical guitarist from South-Korea. Last December he made a trip through Europe including Amsterdam. While being so near, he visited the beautiful Zaanse Schans where, to his big surprise, he bumped into Aniello Desiderio .

He posted many pictures of his trip on Facebook account but this movie is not there yet. I made it in my workshop, the day he picked his new guitar. The ticking at the beginning comes from his wife’s photo camera.

Minsu Yu

This is Minsu Yu, the owner of Classical Guitar Studio Partita, in Seoul, South-Korea. Last March he came all the way to Europe, to meet and greet guitar makers he represents, including me. Before he came to Amsterdam he  spent more than a week in Italy and after all the pasta he felt like some noodles. The first night we took him to a restaurant called Korea, which didn’t happen to be the perfect choice…  Luckily Minsu Yu stayed a few more days so we could make up for it.

Minsu Yu and I got to know each other thanks to the South Korean guitarist Ricardin Hwang about whom I wrote earlier.  Minsu, besides owing the most important guitar shop of South-Korea, turned out to be a very good guitar player.
