Leaving (by Per-Olov Kindgren)

I received this email from Canadian author, Margaret Blair (www.margaretbl..., and it inspired me to this music. Margaret wrote to me:
“Dear Per-Olov, I was doing my usual hour or so wandering through your music and I noticed that you explain the silences in your playing to your musically well-educated audience. I use this all the time when giving talks on my books e.g. for the end of my childhood memoir, as we are leaving, I describe the quick post-war return of Shanghai to its commercial roots and say:
“And engrossed in its own affairs, Shanghai, the love of my life, the place of my birth (pause)
turned its back. (longer pause)
On the wharf, a dead seagull, its wing lifted by fitful gusts of wind, waved goodbye.” (silence, end of talk).
Especially the last sentence, about the Seagull waving goodbye, caught my attention.
Thank you Margaret for inspiring me with your words!
Guitar: Per Hallgren, Sweden (2012)

Listen to your wonderful music on a saturday morning in November - and contemplating the impermanence of life- thank you Per Olov

Thanks for listening Tara! I hope it made your morning nicer...

Such a fantastic composition full of deep emotions, played with expression and great feel, dynamics. When music has a good theme you always hear that in the music. Among your best work Per, I listened with great joy, keep up your fantastic work and stay healthy in these difficult times, Vic.

Oh Per-Olov my dear friend! What a beautiful composition! It sounds so perfect, full of emotion and soul - I am really moved by your skillful guitar playing. You stroke the music with your guitar and it's a blessing to hear it. Another masterpiece. Thank you for giving this music to people - that makes our world a better place. I am immensely proud to be able to work with you and to be connected to you. What an honour for me. My biggest like for this amazing upload, 1000 hugs and all the best for you and your father my friend! Friendly greetings, yours, Jimmy

[@Per-Olovkindgren]

Dearest friend. Thank you for your very kind words. The honor is mine. you have a beautiful soul. I am looking forward to the next orchestration of my music. it’s so amazing what you do! Thank you! Per-Olov

[@michelloiseau]

Dear Per-Olov, I like silence whether it's explained or not. This suspended time where everyone agrees that it is essential. In literature as in music, it allows you to reflect on what has just been read or heard, it is the punctuation that allows us to understand everything. Your music excels in this , it TELLS, it tells us so many things ... until the last note. I think if one day you had the idea to give us three minutes of mostly silences and pauses, with just a few notes here and there to satisfy the brain, that would be perfect. Yes, we would like ... muted of course ... we would stay on pause until the last silence :) This music is a real gift for all musicians, it is truly a great composition. "Silence, end of talk" With Love Michel

[@Per-Olovkindgren]

Desrest Michel. Merci for your very intelligent and well expressed words. You are a wise man. I might make a video/composition with mostly silence... but I am not sure everyone would appreciate it... lol. thank you again and give Veronique my love. Per-Olov

[@Stephanorf]

Dearest Per-Opav, Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. I had to stop playing the classical guitar because of carpel tunnel, the pain was just too much. I still have my guitars, but can no longer play. I wanted to let you know how much I enjoy watching and listening to you play. This piece is perfect for the time we are living in now with so much sadness and loss. So beautiful and melancholy. Thank you for sharing a this part of you with the world, and specifically with me. Please stay safe.

[@Per-Olovkindgren]

Dear Stephanorf. I am sorry you had to stop playing your guitars. :( I can´t imagine the feeling... I don´t even know if I could listen to others... so extra thanks of listening to me!! All the best, Per-Olov

My dearest Per, Thank you for another beautiful masterpiece. ❤️ In the beginning, I could feel the pain of leaving... of longing...the one last glance before completely turning away with such a heavy heart. The middle of your music becomes hope.. a sweet reminisce... the ending is an earnestness ... a promise of coming back... It reminds me of my hometown. It's been 8 months now that I haven't been able to visit it. Ps. continue wearing the mask Much love and hug, sam ❤️❤️❤️

Dear Per-Olov, This is very amazing piece. I am speechless, like I don't really know what to say, besides listening to the heavenly sound of your guitar. Really calm and beautiful at the same time. And I also like her words too: "On the wharf, a dead seagull, its wing lifted by fitful gusts of wind, waved goodbye.”. Aaahhhh. Beautiful Thank you very much for this lovely performance. Actually I planned to record today, but I am nervous, like I don't know if I could play it perfectly just for today. And recently I haven't had time to practice (lots of schoolwork). But I'll try my best to do for you guys. Love (stay safe, wear a mask)💗💗 Y

Dear Per-Olov. Once again I find myself mesmerized by your beautiful guitar playing. I truly believe you are among a very few people on this planet who are able to fully master this instrument. (I have been playing for 30 years and when it comes to classical guitar I can't think of many who play as beautiful as you do (ok...maybe Julian Bream or John Williams). I would love to hear some Swedish compositions though...(especially Dan Andersson who is way underrated). Cheers from Norway!

[@Per-Olovkindgren]

Thank you very much Olav. The world has so many talented guitarists and many plays better guitar than I. But I appreciate your kind words. Actually I am working on a series of Swedish folk songs at the moment! Among them some by Dan Anderson. I will publish my arrangements soon on my site and perhaps play some of them on YT. Per-Olov

Thanks for listening. How I do it? I always try to focus on the melody itself. And I play it 99% with my right ringfinger (a).

[@Per-Olovkindgren]

Thank you Sahil. To compose, you will need to be able to write it down on paper. Music theory is not necessary as such but it helps a lot. Grab your guitar and ‘fool around’ a little and suddenly something that sounds good appears. WRITE IT DOWN! later, or next day, play what you wrote and try to expand it and go further... Good luck!
