    Just got back to Key West. Immediately downloaded the CD. Just sampled many of the selections. I can't wait to put it out through my outdoor sound system back up North and get the full effect. Music like yours is what I love to listen to while building my CBG's or just relaxing with a cool drink. Great work! And thank you for sharing...

    Album Notes
    Cigar Box Guitar and classical music met again after 150 years!

    In the middle of XIX century there were musicians who classical pieces performed on homemade instruments such as Cigar Box Guitar. But, unfortunately, there are no records of these unique 
    performances did not survive. How do sounds classical music of the Renaissance on cigar box guitar? 

    "Das Wohltemperirte Cigar Box Guitar" Album ( translation: Well-Tempered sigar box guitar ) was recorded in a home studio by Eugene Nemov. 

    The list of works you will see all the familiar songs and names of composers such as Franz Shubert, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Albinoni and names of familiar music lovers Renaissance: Pascal Bouquet and Francesco da Milano.

    Pascal Bouquet - French lutenist, he lived in XV-th century. Pascal Bouquet composed many excellent works for lute and baroque guitar. Musical notations this musician survived to this day. "Brande des Hermites" and "Volte Praetorius" - it's two works from the collection of popular dances of France, Pascal Bouquet written specifically for learning to play the lute. 

    Francesco Canova da Milano (Italian Francesco Canova da Milano) - Italian Renaissance lute, one of the major European composers XVI veka.Franchesko Canova da Milano is one of the best composers of lute music, and possibly greatest lute virtuoso of all time. His work, and the amazing beauty of a consistently high level, and are often performed today. 

    Just the album includes two copyright works Eugene Nemov - "French dance" and "English dance". They are written in a popular style of lute music of the Renaissance .

    All works have been performed at 3-string classic guitars from cigar boxes, made by Eugene Nemov. Description and images of these instruments You can see on the site www.cigarboxguitars.ru and personal Evgeny Nemov page on the www.cigarboxnation.com ;

    Enjoy!

  • Ted Hartman

    The song "The other ways" I was looking at the wrong song on your list, but we are also brother flags my friend :-)

  • A.D.EKER

    Thanks Phill ,glad you think its free! but in fact there allways will bee input somehow from outside influence,wes and John talk about harmonics(arpeggios) and when i think of it i do use them alot, so you see what is free, the words where just inprofised, but still you can say its a song! sometimes its easy to bee original and simetimes its hard!! like live i gues.

  • gary sheldon

    Hey,  Thanks for the friend invite.

    I am missing Paris these days.  Seems the terrorists fucked with the wrong guys.  I have lived in Europe quite a bit.  Mostly in Belgium.  The Flemish part (Brugge).

    Here, I am building mostly "tall ship" ukes these days.  The necks are made from reclaimed Douglas Fir that was scrap from the building of the tall ship Matthew Turner, currently under construction here in Sausalito, Ca.  My shop is the galley of my 36' sailboat.  Pretty crowded.

  • gary sheldon

    Oh, forgot to tell you my philosophy on guitar building.  My guitars MUST sound decent acoustically.  That is what I aim for.
