Ernesto Snajer and Luis Salinas in Notas de Paso

These are the Argentian guitarists Luis Salinas and Ernesto Snajer in Notas de Paso, Ernesto’s music talk show in which he invites his collegues and friends to discuss musical style, performing, arranging ,instruments and everything else that is or has been important in their professional career.

The program was never meant to be didactic but a lot can be learned by listening to Ernesto’s guests. Those who don’t understand a word of the Castellano, can simply enjoy the music played by these top of the bill musicians.

Listen and watch
Milonga Sentimental by Sebastián Piana (fragments) – 4:17 – improvisations at 6:10 and 8:10.
How insensitive by Carlos Jobim – 10:24.
Zamba en Mi by Master Salinas himself – 17:19.

For this occasion Luis Salinas plays the cutaway (concert model) which I made especially for Ernesto and about which I wrote earlier.


Ernesto Snajer

ernesto snajer

Ernesto Snajer is a house hold name in Argentina and its surroundings and also in Europe he has many loyal fans. He is definitely what you could call a versatile player and there for plays and owns many instruments. I built him a cut away guitar with cedar top and back and sides of Indian Rosewood which can be listened to at his cd Bom Zapar

Bom Zapar

In December last year the Ernesto Snajer Trio gave a concert at the Bimhuis in Amsterdam. I found a link to a registration of the concert made by Radio 6. It starts with a long introduction but at 10.15 the music starts.
