This is ‘Estación Edén, guitar works from Uruguay part two’, the latest CD of Gustavo Pazos. Just like the former one it mainly consists of works by Gustavo himself. Compositions he beautifully describes as ‘musical reflections of never written stories’.
To get an idea I included a fragment of the first track: Cancion para (Ana) Lisa.
You can order the CD at Music & Words
This is Marijn van der Linden. Brazilian music is his passion. He taught himself Portuguese and besides the guitar he also plays the cavaquinho as well as Brazilian percussion. Thanks to him Rotterdam has its own choro school and jazz club Bird a Roda de Choro e Samba session, every first wednesday of the month. Marijn plays a seven string cutaway guitar (2A) and he is very satisfied with it.
The guitar is great! I had a Misi built in and bought a Schertler Unico amp. It sounds really good. I showed the guitar to my colleagues and they too were very impressed.
This is the new CD of Gustavo Pazos for which I made the 7-string guitar I wrote about in a previous post. It’s “A musical reflection on gaucho traditions such as the milonga, the estilo, the chamarrita and more urban forms like the waltz, tango and the signature sound of Montevideo, the candombe” according to his record company. Congratulations Gustavo!
This is Gustavo Pazos, trying his 7- string guitar for the first time.
I’m looking forward to the CD he’s preparing.
