Thanks I checked out Sandro on YT, wasn't familiar with him. The few fingerstyle things I found was all on nylon(possibly gut) the non nylon stuff I found was with a pick, still great though.
@Jangle_Jamie shorter extraction was brighter tasting, if you will. Say, more fruit bright vs baked cake with a longer time.
That's cool, Wim, I'd never make that connection between the two. I actually never tried to figure out anything from Olivier but it sounds like he's using much more of stronger colors, the outside stuff. Angelo's note choice is fairly straightforward on the other hand. I enjoy listening to both, a lot.
Thanks for the reply @wim. Will check out Olivier too
Just a couple of things….I particularly enjoyed Ludovic Beier’s accordion solo on the original video. Everything bar the kitchen sink :)
The chap mentioned who also uses his fingers, Sandro Lorier….thought I recognised his name, he has two volumes on the DC Music School site. It says he’s from the east of France and ‘the Lorier clan is also well known in the region for playing Rumba Flamenca’. So now we know
Ludovic is an accordion player whos comping is so amazingly in the pocket. You really don't need a rhythm player next to him.
I remember @Jangle_Jamie asked me
How did you blend the two films?
I use a YouCut video editor app. Works as well as my previous desktop editor at a quarter of the time. There's a button that just blends a PIP (picture in picture) video.
I took it a step further
It's becoming a common sight in the afternoon. Couple of sips before I start working on All of Me etude.
And, there you go, for all the fans of understated playing
Not exactly a genre known for subtle playing, thoroughly enjoyed that & totally musical.
Nice video, their playing compliments one another. It sounds like he gets pretty good volume out of the guitar playing with nails.
His acoustic tone is amazing, incredible stuff. I think I commented earlier, but I would've been sceptical if someone asked me, before seeing these recent videos, can he sound as good on the acoustic guitar, let alone gypsy jazz which is built around the strong attack.
It's very cool that he has interest for this style and damn, he sounds like he's been at it for years. I've heard other guitarists who are virtuosos in their main "bread and butter" genre. But then, when they play this style, sure they can play a lot of notes but their tone sucks. Well, not so with Matteo.
Their playing styles are very complementary. I was thinking "look at that, Joscho is being out-joschoed by Matteo and Matteo is being out-mancusoed by Joscho".
