Alexander you got a guitar and made it sound like something else here. Well played.

lovely finger work on the guitar, very evocative of ages past and a wide open country scene, gentle and serene :)
very nice Alexander!

Very nice music, Alex! I was thinking Mike Oldfield to begin with but the tone is more like medieval music, as is the ostinato guitar theme. The break up to the more intense, rhythmic guitar, wakes you up and makes you think "What is happening?". Then it calms down and ends peacefully. A very nice way to produce a piece, so that it stays interesting all the way.

It's fascinating the way you have achieved so much with such a minimal approach - the emotion, expression and sense of drama is amazing. Beautiful melody!

I'm very partial to instrumentals...i just love singing without vocals and painting musical pictures...and you have done a wonderful job of both in this piece. Nice fingerstyle playing and counterpoint...and the dynamics at 2:00 and especially at 2:17 are great...love being immersed alone with that great rhythm with that most unusal tone (exotic string instrument?) Quite a ride start to finish. Delightful music!

Great rhythmic counterpoint with the first ostinato guitar part, it provides a great basis for the melody while propelling the song forward. And then of course it all kicks up a few notches and a few centuries when that middle section comes in. Is the tempo increasing? It certainly feels so, especially when we go back to the opening statement. I really enjoyed this!

Can't remember hearing you play guitar before..... and when you do so you yust added a medieval twang to it also plus it sounds autentic like the old guitars too! Very cool piece with an extraordinary twist/change at 1.58.
Very well done!

WOW - this is very nice and I enjoyed it a lot. How did you record the acoustic guitars? Maybe with condensor mics and at what angle. Maybe direct? Nice melodies!

Right from the middle ages! Very nice tune for a romantic medieval setting. Moves along nicely throughout.

Very nice job on the acoustic guitar Alex! Great production as well - nicely capturing the acoustic guitar tones. I agree that the change up at 1:58ish is very cool. Like the outro as well.

Wonderful acoustic guitar playing and sound. I have to agree with Al, there's a flavour of medieval music in the melody. Very nice work!

The melody has a certain medieval euro tone to it. The tempo change is particular interesting as the guitar begins some serious rhythmic strumming at the 1:58 mark; I like how you faded out the first melody as you went into the change. Captivating acoustic guitar track Alex. What does “Balade” mean?

Oh yes, FANTASTIC one!
I never thought I would hear an acoustic guitar track coming from you.... this was a real (nice) surprise for me!!
Excellent arpeggios, delicate melody, and that change at 1:58 is really cool!!! Great strumming/percussive rythmic, and then back to the melodic part..... original, fresh arrangement that I enoyed from begin to end!! Well done Musan Dera!

Nice tone on the acoustic guitar Alex - and a pleasant melody line over it. Cool upbeat at 1:58, with a smooth fallback to end in serenity :)
VERY NICE N MELLOW!
