Music is an emotional language in an artistic way in which I share my musical world to my audience. It is an indistinguishable from my life and it is a gift from God to us and therefore I also worship God with my music.
I would like to share my music to the people who love to listen as well as travel and perform to the places I love.
To raise the musical level of general audience so that a bad musician with good looking will not be succeeded. Sorry if you are the one!
I don't like song but music. Really, I don't have such things cause I am very easy to get bore. I listen to a lot of Rock or Pop music in 80s including music from UK, US and Euro. However I had been bored and explored oldies and even Folk songs... The last song I heard before I switched to Classical music was an album from Dire Straits, Brothers in Arms, the next composer is Antonio Vivaldi - an 17th century Italian composer!
Andres Segovia, John Williams, Julian Bream, Alvaro Pierri and Me!
Life experiences; I usually improvise music to reflect my life, playing music for religious purpose or I got a concert to perform or examination.
Join my musical journey and my guitar music is fantastic!
It is great to perform and share my music to the audience. I enjoyed people who are focused and be attracted in my music in which they have their own musical journey.
Playing a good tone or make no mistake are great but don't forget what you try to say through music in artistic way from your heart.
It looks new and interesting but the community here is cold to my music, probably I am an a minority - the classical guitarist.
It is hard or even impossible to perform music for living, people just want a good music for free!
What is the local scene? Do you meant a street musician? Well, I don't, cause there are bad music on the street everywhere here.
I don't know, the audience nowaday seems not get into the music by listening to its quality but watching. If you consider musician as an artist, we need to delevelope an individuallity that why people should listen to your music? For instance, How many times I saw people playing the fingerstyle guitarist looks like and play like a Tommy Emmanuel or imitating other Famous musician?
That will be me! Ha ha.....
