Benjamín Rico - Fantasy "La Danza de los martillos"
on: November 02, 2012, 06:16:48 AM
Hi to everyone!! I'd like to show you my new ended project, it's the fantasy "La danza de los martillos" or "The Dance of the Hummers" in english, composed by Benjamín Rico. It's my friend and the supervisor of this video in a "professional" mode  ;)

The piece is "world premiere" because it's the first time that it's recorded and it's more difficult if we note that the composer isn't pianist if not bassoonist, so it does more interessting this work of composition.

I hope you like it!!  ;D

hello frankiisko!!

NICE composition and I enjoyed your precise playing and the video's attempt to reinforce its latin flavor .... it has a tune which can be easily liked by the "general public".....  in that sense I find it really NICE! :)

btw,  without checking the dictionary, I think martillo is hammer .... that is how we refer to it in our country, having been a colony of Spain for almost 4 centuries!!!! :( ;) :) ;D

Yes, haha!! Sorry, I wrote an "u" insted of an "a" but yes, it's the "Dance Of the Hammers"

Thank you very much for the correction :P

I'm very happy that you like it, I'll tell to my friend haha, thanks!! :)
