@@AllY0urBass Thanks for mentioning that set. With Etude 8, my view of it changed so much since making that first recording (about 30 years ago), that I thought it would be a good idea to make a home-recording for TH-cam. I may record some of Regondi's concertina studies that I have been playing on guitar. They're too difficult for me on concertina!
@@davidstarobin9541 Thanks so much for your comment! I would be actually interested to know some tidbits of what you think of this piece in detail if you're willing to share -- I am a fellow enthusiast of period guitars (though just a dedicated amateur) and I recently played through the piece with much help from a few different teachers. I guess that goes to show even just one great piece can be a lifelong journey!
@@AllY0urBass it's a piece I have a great fondness for. I've played it (on and off) on concerts and for my own pleasure for many years. Right up until a few days ago when I turned the camera on, I was changing fingerings and articulation. I'm always trying to get the instrument to sing a bit more. I use a lot of left hand articulation to try and connect chromatic lines and reduce the number of strong attacks. One thing I love about these smaller, Viennese style instruments is that the amplitude difference between right and left hand articulation is much more equal than on modern instruments, so that the player can mix the two to create a more seamless legato.
Maravilhoso!
What a lovely way to start the day! Thanks for sharing this intimate musical gem.
reminds me of Casals on cello....beautiful, pure!
Coming from you Beth, it means so much to me. Thank you.
Marvelous, David. A beautiful piece wonderfully done.
Thanks, David!
Bravo Maestro David. Please, if can you record more Regondi works. I would truly appreciated. thank you so much.
Thank you. I'll do my best!
He did the whole set of etudes on an album already, but I wouldn't complain if he also did more of them on video like this!
