My collaborations with other SoundClouders

Another guitar study by one of my favorite (modern) classical guitarist and composers, Leo Brouwer (b. 1939). I think it should be played faster, but I like it this way. Thanks for listening and any comments. Ernst.

Contemplation (Album)* Ernst Spaan (2022) - Preview / Excerpts

My rendition of Anthony Holborne's (1554-1602) lovely piece, originally for lute.  Thanks for listening and feedback! Ernst    

Galliard (comp. by Anthony Holborne)- played on guitar

A while ago I did a jam with some friends: Mario Muller (bass); Pascal Jansen (drums); Peter Gradussen (vocal, harmonica, alto sax) and I'm on guitar and flute. Tracks: (1) Chicago Blues (2) Killer Joe (Golson) (3)  Blues impro (F#). These are rough takes & sound is not optimal (but not bad for an unprocessed Zoom recording).  Thanks for stopping by! Ernst Spaan.

Welcome to my SC channel and my music! I work in different styles, with guitar & flute, but like to experiment with other instruments. I hope you enjoy my tracks! I get inspired by travel, nature, art and other musicians and am always open for collaborations, so drop me a message if you have any ideas.  I'm happy to have worked with these inspirational SC musicians on a few occasions: Jens Felger, Dirk Maassen, Milana Zilnik and Rafael Gutierrez Steinert (Rafalin). Many thanks to them!  And thanks a lot to you listeners for stopping by and for your feedback! 
Peace, Ernst Spaan.
