Marijn van der Linden

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.

more winners

After my post about Sanel and Tariq winning the Tokyo Guitar Competition I got an email from Tatjana Lazovic, who is the proud mother of Ema Kapor, the talented guitarist I wrote about earlier.

I want to inform you that they both like their dear guitars very much and play very nice on them. Belmin and Ema had many successes playing the guitar this year, and the last one is winning the Guitar Fest in Banja Luka (Bosnia and Hercegovina) this November. Ema won 1. Prize in IV category, playing Recuerdos de la Alhambra (F.Tarrega) and Usher waltz (N.Koshkin). Belmin won 1. Prize in V category, playing Capriccio No.15 (L.Legnani), Suite BWV 998, Prelude (J.S.Bach) and Mallorca (I.Albeniz). After the concert of the winners, I took this photo.
