Name: Another Country (Remaster) by The Old Guitarist
Duration: 4 min 41 s
Description: The missing title track from my album. A remastered version of a song written for the last Global Folk Traditions concert held at Columbia College Chicago.

Love the chord progression and melody here

Great composition and production! I'd love to see a video for it!

@amie-doherty: Thank you, Amie. What an idiot I am. I just discovered this comments section. Kept looking for them on FB. This song was written as a kind of living wish/prayer to be anywhere but Chicago, and the lines about Andalucia were written before I knew about the Berklee gig in Spain. Of course, we have to be careful what we wish for!

Wonderful blend between the complex, haunting production and your clear and lilting vocals. Great song, Andy...

Great song, Andy! Being a transplant myself, can intimately relate to the message of the song. Nice bends in the string parts; the song is also harmonically intriguing because of major-minor play. (I hope I am correct on that without seeing the score...)

This was composed as part of the 1st round of the OTICONS FACULTY FILM MUSIC COMPETITION 2014.
"Battle of the Bows" for strings only (which I renamed "Bows and Arrows") was the 2nd imposed assignment of this round. This and the 2 other assignments got me a place as Finalist in the 2nd round of the competition.

Composition for string ensemble. SOCAN@2014

Bows and Arrows

This is the long version of the piece I wrote for Oticons Faculty International Film Music Competition 2014 (task 3). It was a filmscoring imposed cue (storyboard)of a love scene followed by a deadly duel scene based on an adaptation of "The Blood Wedding" (Federico García Lorca). I am proud to have been selected as Finalist in the competition partly due to the short version I presented of this piece! Hope you enjoy :)

Meet Ciarán Ó Floinn, our Dublin-based composer and arranger. His composition “Suaimhneas“ is one of only a handful of requiems in the Irish language.

The Old Guitarist is Ramón Tontosanta, the reclusive Andalusian producer of the tracks for Andy Hill's little iTunes album, ANOTHER COUNTRY. Tontosanta is believed to live an austere, hermetic existence in the neolithic Hobbit caves on the island of Minorca, and come into civilization only to produce the occasional record. His touch is thought to be magical, although he can also be highly capricious. Whether any of the former influence made it into these tracks, you will have to judge. But Andy felt grateful enough for his efforts that he happily assigns all credit to him. Andy is now sequestered in Nashville, Tennessee, awaiting his next mission and eating lots of hot chicken.
