A strange multi-timed instrumental played on one guitar.

Artist picture
Avante guard. electroacoustic, finger picking, instrumental guitarist...with the help of other sound input that feels right at the time.
Why Hello there ... and Welcome! I am a instrumental acoustic guitarist. Somewhere a while back, I had a viral/bacterial infection that caused me to lose 1/2 of my voicebox. Since that time I have not been able to sing... my voice just won't do what I'd like for it to. So I became a finger picker...sort of avante guard style. All my music is original, recorded, produced, mastered and marketed by myself.

Story behind the song
The idea and basis of this tune was written back in the summer of 2007, but nothing ever came of it. For one reason, this is a very difficult song to play. It has about 4 different time signatures thru-out ... starting with 7/8, then 6/8, morphing into 11/8 ... then somewhere in there, a measure or two of 5/8 .. what!! You saya ...yep ... weird, but pretty cool. But it is hard to get it right. So, I have been playing this one on and off since written, just to get it down & refine it. Ha! This one is in DADGAD tuning and only one guitar beginning to end. The name? Somewhere in the middle of the song, the music actually sounds like some sort of Baroque music ... there you go ... Recorded with my new acquisition .. a T.Haruo T-80 dreadnaught.
