Le Trio Alla Grande play Carnaval by Roux

Le Trio Alla Grande play Carnaval by Patrick Roux (both Canadian).

I recently played this work with the Victoria Trio, a nice job played here by Le Trio Alla Grande. For those who don’t know this piece is originally for quartet and recorded by the composer himself with his well known group the “Canadian Guitar Quartet”.

Pat Metheny Interview – Orchestrion

I know this isn’t classical guitar but it’s at least darn interesting!

Pat Methany talks about his new album Orchestrion.

This is pretty brilliant, the instruments react to his midi control on his guitar making the experience interactive with the mechanized instruments. This kind of interaction and relationship with the otherwise lifeless controlled sounds really changes the concept and possibilities of playing with electronics. Neat stuff, gotta love Pat Methany.
