"Three small pieces" solo classical guitar by Morenoise

Hi All, just want to share the fruits of my Sunday morning recording session, all of one take . Three short pieces that I've been playing lately, thought they made a nice performance together. Have a listen if you like :

Nylon is a miracle material, it can make a woman's legs look good? And it can be used to string a guitar! What else can make these two claims?  Sounds good, I listened to all 3.

Hi Robby, thanks for listening to all of them.

Hi, Rik,

It sounds like you had a wonderful Sunday morning!

As always, beautiful, very classy playing, and the guitar tone sounds rich and warm.  Excellent!

Best wishes,
Bob

Great playing!  Very nice pieces and they go very well with your style of playing.

One take, huh?  Okay, now I'm REALLY jealous

Seriously, Rik, your compositions and playing never cease to amaze me.  And they're almost invariably pretty pieces, often providing a welcome respite from my beat heavy rock and roll world.

Very nice Rik!  All three tunes had a 'haunting' vibe to my ears and you put me in the zone with them. As always, wonderful playing and a clear mix. I'm a fan of the 'one-take' performances as well!! It keep the emotional content intact!

Pure magic. Excellent playing. Is that your own composition? I think of Albeniz when I hear this, at least the first part. Would be interesting to hear how you record the guitar? I use two microphones. This sounds like one. Short delay with slight reverb?

Hi Rik,

Great playing as usual, they really go well together. I'm always excited to see new post by you and can't wait to listen.

Thanks,

Bub

Hi Equality, these are my own compositions, basically three variations of the same chords. The guitar is a  Lag 112nce nylon string acoustic electric recorded direct (DI) on one track and via a Behringer B-5 microphone at the 12th fret on a second track. From the DI track I only use the lows to low-mids and reverb, TC-Electronic m-30 freeware, is only applied to the Di track. On the mic track there's only a highpass filter,at  100hz. Standard Cakewalk compressor on the master bus just to catch a stray spike and Flux Stereo Tool for a little bit of width.

Greetings, Rik

Hi Rik,

Finally got round to listening to these, I've been meaning to for a couple of days but, you know, life gets in the way sometimes.

Anyway, these 3 pieces are fab - I was wondering if they shared a similar chord structure while listening to the second one and your reply above confirms that - but the similarity isn't so obvious on the third one to my ears.

Marvellous, keep on doing more Sunday sessions like that ;-)

Cheers,
Terry.

Hi Rik,

Beautiful writing and playing.

Always a pleasure to hear you.

Great playing. Are these originals?   Sounds a bit like a combination of Scarlatti and Sor.
