Which albums do you have on iTunes? - love to check them out
Well, thanks for asking. Not everybody's cup of tea, but you never know. I've just had a look on iTunes, and they have a few. I'll add a couple of comments to some of them:
Scottish Tunes for Viola da gamba and Baroque guitar - the viola da gamba is like a cello, but with gut strings and frets, tuned similar to a guitar. The baroque guitar is like a 12-string guitar, but with only ten strings, made of gut. The music is from Scotland, circa 1650 to 1720, is very relaxed, contemplative, very beautiful. This is the most recent release - just last year - and it reached number 18 in the Canadian classical music chart.
The Healing - a solo album of Scottish lute, cittern and guitar music from the 17th century. Reached number 1 position in both the Scottish classical and folk music charts, which tells you something about the music, mainly crossover stuff between classical and folk.
Flowers Of The Forest - ditto - also reached number 1
Graysteil - medieval music of Scotland with myself on lute, and others on harp and singing. Also reached number 1 in the Scottish classical music chart
Recital: The Art of the Banjo - I unexpectedly took a left turn one day, and found myself playing 19th and early 20th-century banjo, kind of classical meets popular again. Some Gershwin type influences in there as well. Sold about 100 copies! LOL!
There are a few others as well. I don't play concerts anymore as I suffer badly from anxiety attacks, especially with travel, and can't fly. It kind of ruined my career. I've had to turn down tours of the States and other far-flung places. For the last year I haven't been able to get on a train - until my trip to Dalmeny last weekend (see the photos). That was a BIG thing for me! even though it is only ten minutes by train. Somehow the camera is really helping me, lessening the anxiety. Looking through a lens, or just thinking about doing so, slows me down and helps me take in the surrounding in a more relaxing way. Phototherapy!
, i got my daughter to look for a tune for me to post... I played this saturday night off the original vinyl(all £400 of it)
