I once had a classic nylon string guitar. improvising to find new ideas. oboe and guitar is a good combo. maybe have to work on it to find better oboe ideas or just leave it solo ...

Lord Inchiquin by O'Carolan played while watching wintersport on tv in my old trashy guitar for rehearsal. mixed with Bowed Psaltery youtube verson by Gregg E Schneeman. never perfect.

lord Inchiquin and Thomas Wassberg win gold

played this from tabs many years ago. I remember had the idea of pressing a stereo mic between my tummy and back of the guitar to get better sound and low notes ... tuning is D A E G B E. usual open A sliding up to 7. fret gives it some rustic feeling.

Better days

I should do more visual artworks but find myself playing the guitar instead .... basic influence and reason to buy a guitar many decades ago was english folk baroque style of Renbourn/Jansch. Actually met John Renbourn some years ago and he asked me why I didnt pick up my own folk tradition? ... yes why not... apart from that music is music.
