The Sea said "Come" to the Brook,
The Brook said "Let me grow!"
The Sea said "Then you will be a Sea - 
I want a Brook, Come now!"

The Sea Said Come

Well I try to hold my breathe
And save my words from you
But no matter how I pitter patter
Things are getting sad again for you

And I try to shake it off I really really do
I'm left to think that everything is going bad in life because of you

Why Are you so sad?
I can't breathe
I can't breathe
I can't breathe anymore

I try to follow all your petty fucking rules
But as soon as I begin follow one you go and make another two
My anxiety is high My bitterness is bad
I keep on trying harder but I end up as a martyr in the end

Why are you so sad?
Why are you so sad?

I can't breathe
I can't breathe
I can't breathe anymore

I can't breathe

____________________________________________
the garden grows beneath her bed today
and the river flows beneath her head today
this empty dress she fills with leaves from outside
(these 40 days passed me by)
'cause the sun won't shine to keep her kindness alive

words spin 'round my head 'cause what you said, 
not what you meant to say... to see.

her sister shares the same thoughts and words as her
but the younger one feels the pain much deeper
again she fills her hands with dirt from outside
(these 40 days pass me by)
but the sun won't shine to keep her kindness alive

books and words and prayers spin round my head 
not what you meant to say... to see.

i can see a way to be with you again
fall down the stair like only you would do
my head's so cold my eyes are closed this time
and i wait to hear your voice from heaven above

DE FUEGO Y HIELO | OF FIRE & ICE

This piece is about contrasts, of calm and cool to passionate and fiery. The first section builds towards a climax where percussion and a bass are added to form a fandangos midsection. This is completely brought back to tranquility in the end section. The first part of the ending section contains a little “quote” of a piece by the guitar trio (DeLucia, McLaughlin, DiMeola) called “David”. That leads into a recap and extension of the opening theme which concludes the track.

I wrote it originally as just an acoustic trio guitar piece, but felt the urge here to add percussion and bass, to intensify the midsection.

As always I really enjoy your likes, shares and comments and hope you’ll enjoy this part VII of my Short Tales series! It’s nearing an album length!

New Album out now! https://danielvandenberg.bandcamp.com/album/short-tales-for-three-guitars

This site is for my musical avatar or alter ego. Architect/partner/company owner by day, I find myself playing guitar and writing these tracks in afterhours, at nights, evenings, when in need of a dose of guitar sounds. You will find a wide range of guitar oriented music, ranging from Jazz to Blues, Flamenco to Classical, Rock to Fusion. And many collaborations with some great musicians.

I have been playing guitar since I was 11 years old, largely self-taught and have tried different styles and instruments: Renaissance lute, flamenco guitar, classical guitar, steel string guitar and electric guitar with which I have been playing in styles ranging from rock and metal in my early years to classical music, some American Folk music, jazz rock, prog rock, flamenco nuevo and fusion.

It’s been a splendid time here so far, in collaborating with a lot of brilliant musicians on SoundCloud and sharing ideas and the passion for music. 
My collaborations are with musicians that I have a deep respect for and have a mutual appreciation for real instruments, and musical styles that focus on letting the instruments “shine”. 

Here is some technical data:
Currently I am using Amplitube and Auria on an iPad as DAW with Final Touch for mastering. For acoustic recording I use an Apogee microphone.

Guitars are:
Fender AMERICAN ELITE STRATOCASTER® HSS SHAWBUCKER, 2016
Fender Stratocaster Squire (first edition: JV-series)
Ibanez JS100, Joe Satriani model
Evh Frankie Striped MN Relic R/W/B

EVH 5150 Series Standard Stealth Black EB guitar
Fender American Professional II Stratocaster HSS Olympic White RW
Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 HSH 2PT CM Mahogany Natural
Paulino Bernabe, Taller de Guitarras, Model-50, 2001, classical concert guitar
Marín, Modelo Estudio /9 Calidad, 1997, Malaga, Spain, flamenco guitar
Joan Cashimira, modelo 145, spruce top w/ cocobolo sides and back, Gata de Gorgos (Alicante), 2015

I hope you will enjoy my music.
