Gargamel: Pink Roses (improv)
on: May 17, 2005, 10:20:37 PM
Here is another improvisation in a different style from my last one.  My goal was the use of arpeggiations,  any suggests are welcome please.  I think it is a little long-winded.

I like this...again your ability with surprising harmonic changes is great, and you seem to have a lot of natural ability for melody. Keep recording! :)

at 1:18...I really liked that change

I'm in a relaxing phase before an important concert and I thought I would dig a bit in the depths of the forum. There are quite a few treasures that must not be forgotten, I think. I love this one, I'm listening right now :)

I liked gargamel's stuff, too. The other improv he posted had some really cool dark chords in it. I haven't seen him on this site in ages, I'd like to hear how his music has grown and changed since those two posts!

here's a link to his other improv.... Gargamel's "Middle Land"

Yeah that one is very beautiful, too. It's in my listening repertoire for quite a while already :)

Thanks very much, guys :).  Sometimes when I post something new, it's difficult for me to respond at the time to other people's responses to me.  And, you both made a nice effort with no response from Gargi  :-[.  It's funny to listen back to these improvs...
