The voicings are absolutely spectacular. I certainly hope that Sting has heard, or does hear this, as he too will doubtless be blown away.

My favorite part is how much this guy loves what he is doing. You can tell by his emotions that he loves his instrument and his music. And it simply moves me

Your playing is so wonderful it makes me cry... Not because of the song's emotion, but because of admiration!
@mikemankins290513 жыл бұрын
Walter, I realize that there are some really good musicians that play for everyone / everything BUT God. But I know God - Given inspiration and talent when I see it. It's not possible to play with that kind of musical emotion with out being plugged into His heart. I just watch this again and again and just remind myself of where true music comes from. You're an inspiration to me and many others I know. Keep it up man.

As a solo marimba and jazz vibe player this really inspires me to pick up jazz guitar. My instrument relates a lot with this, using permutations and independence to create a full sounding piece. Through my research I've found no way of just starting with this style of guitar,. Everywhere I look forces me to grind through pop songs and memorization processes that frustrate me beyond belief. Your channel convinces me to keep looking. Wonderful playing my friend! :)
