Don Ross - Michael, Michael, Michael

31/10/16. Casa de América estrenó su ciclo ‘Ritmo&Tuits’ con dos guitarristas de excepción: Don Ross (Canadá) y Pipo Romero (España).
Don Ross es un referente en el mundo de la guitarra, concretamente en el género “Fingerstyle Guitar”. Ha sido el único guitarrista en la historia en ganar el Campeonato Nacional de “Fingerstyle Guitar” de EE.UU en dos ocasiones. Por su parte, Pipo Romero se caracteriza por su particular forma de tocar la guitarra (Spanish Acoustic FingerStyle) y la mezcla de estilos raíz de una forma innovadora y transgresora, lo que le ha situado en el foco de los guitarristas a tener en cuenta en los próximos años.
El ciclo
Durante algo más de una hora, ambos virtuosos de la guitarra interpretarán distintos temas, que podrán ser disfrutados y tuiteados por el público. Porque una de las características principales de los conciertos de ‘Ritmo&Tuits’ es que el público podrá compartir sus impresiones, vídeos y fotos en la Red, con el hashtag #ritmo&tuits, para ser aún más partícipes de lo que ocurre en el espectáculo. Y todos los que quieran seguir el concierto vía online, también tendrán esa posibilidad gracias a estos comentarios, vídeos e imágenes, sin necesidad de estar físicamente en nuestra sede, el Palacio de Linares.
Además, los artistas estuvieron acompañados junto al escenario de pantallas en las que se proyectaron los tuits que se van lanzando.

[@musica4676]

後ろの女、失礼すぎる。

[@jimmyblues59m76]

Was listening to Antoine Dufour play this song recently and came upon this video with the composer playing it. This is a kickass tune that I would love to loop so that I can listen to it for hours. Happy & Healthy Holidays! 😊

[@Thindoublechin]

Don't be too hard on the woman being on her phone. What do you want her to do? Look at his ass? Thats what her view is. She's definitely vibing to the music.

[@MangalSuvarnan]

That mid song tuning. Even that sounded so goddamn good. Balls of STEEL! I remember this song from candyrat records in 2009. He did us DIRTY at 3:32. God, SO GOOD!

[@hiraethgamer2819]

The Ganges river is cleaner than that 03:32 bit, good god!

[@Muzikman127]

this dude just fucking kills it, my god what a guy

[@SouthJohnston]

That woman in the background is really annoying. She's got a musical genius and one of the guitar greats playing right in front of her and she's arsing around with her phone! Some people just haven't got a clue. Brilliant playing from Don, one of my favourites by him.

[@patrickmorgan4006]

A quick smack to the back of the head would be appropriate in this situation.

[@paulmc3457]

Any one else amazed at the fret configuration on his guitar? I am amazed that you can do that, and still have it play, but I am a drummer, guess I'll just be facinated as usual at Don Ross' genius of the git box,BRAVO!

[@maniacalbarbarian]

Fan fret! Scale lengths r different between the low and high strings, therefore this makes notes more accurate across the neck.

[@thejakeyboi]

Stop playing with your phone!

[@IncessantWake]

she didn't enjoy the music. Me personally, just listening to this... I felt like his music put my mind in deep thought. Such a beautiful pure song.

[@vidtaminc5049]

She only enjoy music performed by guys with magazine model look..

[@X61f]

LoL!

[@InTheDead]

Love this tune! It's truly amazing to see the way Don Ross has evolved as a musician sinse I first heard this song about 5 years ago.

[@user-ye1jo1nh6x]

このフレットで弾いてるのが凄い！

[@heseee]

Great sound and video quality, thanks for this! :) Really great musician

[@TheDromanL]

Don Ross wrote this song for Michael Hedges. Damn awesome if you ask. Me!

[@jacomans9078]

Maestro!

[@ophiolatreia93]

Hear a lot of Dracula and friends in here. Love it

[@jwmcneelyIII]

At least, if she has to use the damned phone, get out of the view of the camera. Ridiculous! What is she doing even standing back there? Whatever "Casa America" is, it doesn't seem like a good place to have a concert with a major artist like this if they're not going to treat him with respect.

[@justanothernguyen2334]

And the second woman just ninja ducked into the camera view with no effect. I mean, it'd be less distracting if she'd just walk in normally

[@jeffhaney2999]

I truly tried to enjoy this video. Chick in the background ruined the hell out of it! lol

[@M.Redsky]

Jeff Beck said he didn't like acoustic guitar, and that they were a "pain in the ass" because you just "end up sounding like a folk singer." I don't think Don Ross was on his radar.

[@josephson6118]

Hahaha this woman behind so surreal..

[@Troubleshooter125]

I guess I don't get around, because I have NEVER seen a guitar with such an unusual fret board. Clearly not a problem to Don, though, who voices it with his usual mastery. Thanks for posting this!

[@lord461]

Fanned frets :)

[@ko-chan4688]

ギター作るの上手そう

[@_Dio_Brando_69]

Broken record here but god damn that lady in the back disinterestedly fiddling with her phone

[@gtrrobster]

So good! Fairly true to the PS recording from 99. Lots of cool adjustments and improvs. Flanger in the middle. My take on the woman in the background. I think it was a set up for some sort of humorous statement. Or Some sort of something. For one it was a concert. So what was she doing there anyways? Or maybe she had gone to the bathroom, And did not want to walk across the stage and Snd disrupt the performance, so instead She fiddled about on her phone? :-). I think it’s hilarious!

[@hughakston3518]

The girl in the back on her phone is missing out on dopamine

[@Anappa11]

Amazing improv on the original, couldn't help but want to slap the chick in the back on her phone. Lol. And they said gen x was bad, hah:

[@Anappa11]

The rest of us appreciate you don! Lol

[@tylerjennings6519]

Wtf is that kid doing in the background.

[@X61f]

Push the octave pedal to some heavy bass! 😎

[@samsancheziii]

Awesome video and song! That chick in the back tho.

[@sforzaluca8684]

Excellent!!

[@はむまる-j3p]

最高

[@はじめ高木]

Super cool 🎸

[@hadriscus]

Holy shit this is the grooviest thing

[@ophiolatreia93]

Listen to Dracula and friends part 1 by Don Ross. THATS the grooviest thing :)

[@rhitrix]

Don Ross' ability is technically on a level above many others, but the song just lacks emotion. Too many notes. It's just boring to listen to. You compare this to something like Lindsey Buckingham's "Big Love" or Mark Knopfler's "Brothers in Arms / Sultans of Swing / Tunnel of Love"... Yes, they're less technical, but the guitar's voice and the song's emotion comes out so much more. These songs aren't boring. The guitar is more about the song and the emotion and less about the technical aptitude of the guitarist. Night and day differences. No wonder the girl is on her phone. She's probably googling the tab to the other songs...

[@vidtaminc5049]

Another evidence that most women do not like music performed by not-so-good-lookin-guy. They just see what's behind the music, not to enjoy the music itself.

[@michaelm8265]

You sound like you have issues man. Retrace your thought process on this one and think about it or talk to someone, you might feel better. Also, don't forget to enjoy the music :)

[@justanothernguyen2334]

@@michaelm8265 the fact is that she didn't express even a slight interest to the good music that's being played LIVE by the author himself. That's all i need to know
