Spain

Love that piece of music, onto which I stumbled again lately. And I’ve actually played it myself half a lifetime ago, together with Christian Hecker (p), and with Sven Thomsen (dr), when we formed a band for a theater group.

It begins – as so often – with Rodrigo‘s Concierto de Aranjuez (which I also have on CD, played by Narciso Yepes), but the rest of the piece is Chick Corea‘s most well-known composition.

And tho I’m no Patitucci (and played a 4-string bass only), it’s immense fun to play it, and also to see the “old guard” plaing it (Chick is 75 by now). Enjoy…

Thanks for reading.
