Music by Mark O?Connor

5 pages - 3:00 minutes in length



From the Thirty-Year Retrospective album notes; ?I began to choose and arrange some of the best tunes of my 30-year recording career. As I worked, it all came flooding back. The places, the people, the feelings. Tunes from my childhood... ?Pickin? in the Wind,? the first tune I ever wrote...material from my Rounder and early Warner Bros. recordings...The Championship Years, New Nashville Cats, Heroes, Strength in Numbers, the Appalachia projects for Sony Classical. It was all there. A musical biography...started out as a retrospective of my career, during the process it became more. As I listen now, I realize that these recordings stand as a testament to the living, breathing, ever-evolving heritage of American music. As I watch these and other young players rise, I know it couldn?t be in better hands.?

New apoyando/picado exercises that I hope it will be interesting to play. Sincerely speaking, I don't like exercises because they are mostly for technique and there is no music. I wanted to create exercises that would be interesting for me, the musical exercises. I am satisfied with this work - now I have more good exercises for myself and I share it with you. Each exercise is made like a cycle. You can practice some important technique elements - left hand transitions that are common in flamenco guitar music, with p/h/glissando. These patterns are also useful as guitar licks for flamenco fusion improvisation. Enjoy!
