Guitar music

2 arrangements of mine, these are different older recordings of them from when I was maybe 35?

  1. Corcovado by Antonio Carlos Jobim
  2. Monk’s Mood by the man with the hats, Thelonious Monk
  3. Plus a pic of me and my bud Iza when we were maybe 20,

I composed an arrangement of Chopin’s Prelude #4 for the nylon string guitar and did it ever hit home. My neighbours at my apt. on Lisgar St. freaked when they heard the process and the result. I gave a copy to a busker friend in the Byward Market and another copy I threw into the fast waters of the St-Laurence Seaway at the Old Port of Montreal when ridding myself of worldly attachments high on a buddhist manual. So, anyways, the dude might of kept the copy. I tried to rewrite it but failed. I’ll sit down and do it again and succeed this time.

But this piece by Chopin most thoughtfully must of inspired Jobim’s How Insensitive. I play Prelude #4 it is heartwrenchingly beautiful.

Have any of you played it? Rojie? Have you keyed ‘er?

Ok. Cheers!!!

Nico

  1. Younger days, Nico, and the piano play was sentimental. Maybe Rojie played it before.
