Rosa Mystica
Guitars: Gino Herman and Arnoud Declerck

Capriccio by Armand Coeck
Guitar: Gino Herman

Capriccio (1993) dedicated to Gino Herman, highlights all kinds of guitar techniques in an improvising style. The use of open strings and rasguedo techniques as well as the imitation of a typical right thumb technique from the flamenco (alzapua) are remarkable indeed. This is one of the few works of Armand Coeck that ends in an imposing crescendo.
