Awesome! You guys look like you were having a lot of fun, even with the snowstorm.
So, lately, I've been showing my friend 'The Compleat Klezmer', explaining some of the odds and ends of klezmer music. As we were looking through the book, we had the idea of turning to a random...
That's awesome. I'll probably be working on this for a while. Thank you.
Nah, your fine. I don't take offense to those kind of comments. But, anyway, how's Tantz, Tantz Yidelekh in A working for you? Playing on the G-string is a bit of a stretch for me, but Im sure I...
I also started learning Tantz Tantz Yidelekh in A. Not to different from D or E, depending on which octave you decide to play it in. I also started playing some klezmer tunes with Irish trad tunes....
Interesting, I'll try playing a couple tunes in the higher octave. Speaking of Misirlou, why is it associated with klezmer music when it is a Greek folk song?
I suppose you're right. Started picking it in D, and while not too different, it is a longer stretch.
And actually, I first learned Hava Nagila in D, as well as Misirlou.
Tantz, Tantz, Yidelekh is coming along greatly, although I think I prefer it in the original key of E. Not sure why...
I never said there was anything wrong with them. They're simply not my cup of tea. As for folk-punk, Im not sure if that would work. In fact, I may just drop the issue with him, and just see what...
Yeah, so I've heard. I think Battle of Evermore is one of them...
Well then........ Challenge accepted.....
What tunes would you recommend starting with out of the book?
The book just came in the mail today. I was just skimming through it, and I like what I'm seeing.
Ah, The Compleat Klezmer. That was the book my aunt got me. Should be coming in the mail sometime this week...
I've heard of the Klezmatics, and the Klezmer Conservatory Band. I'll have to see what I can find. And, I also just started learning the Odessa Bulgar a few weeks ago.
Yeah, sorry about the link, but I use my iPad a lot!
Maybe, but probably not....
I was listening to the radio today, and this song came on. I like the song, and would like to learn it, but I have no clue what they're doing.....
Here's the song:...
Actually, he has tried to get me to listen to Mastodon, Slayer, and the like......
I like my fair share of heavy metal, but it's not my absolute favorite. But, at the same time, my brother also likes a lot of the blues. Of course, though, I'm not very familiar with either heavy...
............. Ok.................
Not quite sure if that would work....
Well, I listen to a little folk-metal, and have tried to get my brother into it before.... With little success........
Well, I forgot to mention the fact that he is a metalhead. Most of the songs he listens to are by Pearl Jam, Metallica, Soundgarden, Pantera, and the like......
See, for the past couple months, Ive been trying to get my brother to play some music with me (really simple tunes, like Dueling Banjos, I saw the light, etc.), but he won't listen. So, what are some...
Well, I found this (somewhat) interesting article on right-hand technique for the lute, and I've kind of pulled some ideas from that...
Oh, and here's the article:...
