The arrangement was ready in Octobre 2009, fragments of the lyrics as well. To find some suitable lines it lasted until April 2010. To top the arrangement, I included an E-Piano. I spent a lot of time to finalize the mix the way I wanted it to sound. Listen and enjoy!
The moment I came back home from the concert of Tommy Emmanuel on 05th of Nov 2009 at the Aegi-Theater, where I luckily met him personally, I played the first notes of this new song - inspired from the concert.
This is a piece I've been waiting to close it for a long time. Besides the bassguitar every instrument was recorded. Unfortunately it didn't happen that a friend of mine played his idea completely. Now I did it by myself according to the idea of Hans and hope to be successful with this song. Hans, thanks a lot for your inspiration and your creative ideas!
Written by Francisco Tárrega (1885-1909).When playing classical guitar, you can't avoid to mention / play Tárrega.Lágrima (Tear), because auf the look of the notes in the score
This piece arose while talking with my daughter end of 2008. A chilling, jazzy acoustic guitar
This one is for my Dad, who was wheelchair-bound for many years and who has been told to have cancer to top it all. Concussive for me who has seen him as an very agil sportsman before.I don't think this song will last forever but I'll remember my father evertime I play / hear this one.
Mid of April '09 I found the first riff (by chance), chorus and vers have been found fast, lyrics beginning of May. until today, 23.05.09, I tried hard to make this the best of my songs....11.03.2010 This is the new version of the song. Recorded 15.02.2010.
My second rock song! A wonderful mid tempo rock-pop-song, which I find quite suitable for beeing on air! Made quite spontaneously und finalized in between a few hours, I totally go for the groove and the overall feeling of the song.
Proud to present my first (real) song with german lyrics! The first few chords have been found 07.09.08, but due to some new ideas for melody and lyrics the final version has been delayed until end of Novembre.
This piece of music has been written about 24 years ago and exists in the primal version until then. It was my first attempt to really write down a piece of music. I don't think that it can be played by anyone by reading the score, because I'm not perfect at all in writing notes...
Against my own opinion that one should give his effort to write own stuff instead of covering I post this master piece from Bill Withers. Although I like the original version very much, I hope that my version sounds a bit more modern and that you are delighted from my version as well.
My "first" rock song - Refreshment for my rock soul! The first riff arose while expermenting with guitar sounds beginning of April 2008. The remaining stuff has been found quite fast, except lyrics and vocals melody. End of Novembre I found a quite interesting idea for the vocals and put together the things then.
This song was written a few days before my 45th birthday and has been put on DVD for a meeting with Tommy Emmanuel on 05th of Nov 2009! He got the DVD but I didn't receive a contract for a tour... ;)
Summer, sun, beach, an acoustic guitar. Conceived and finalized until beginning of June und beginning of August '08. - Unfortunately not while sitting on a caribean beach with strawhat and "white russian", but I hope to convey the feeling of it.
(eleven fifteen) stands for the time, I got the message, that my dad passed away - about 22 hours after my wedding.
