I found another awesome player from France. Sylvain is a Music Prof at Music Academy International. I hope that he will be joining our forum soon.

What do you think?

Even though he's from France, NOBODY even THINK about comparing him with Django!
I do think he's better than Santa Claus though.

Welcome Sylvian! Great time feel, I really enjoyed your playing. Now I gotta go catch my breath...
I LOVE what you do with the right hand, rest stroke? You've got your own thing there, very fresh. Nice job. Hope you have fun here.

Thank you! it's kind of a second-degree video actually, but i'm glad you watched it!
I use primarly free stroke and rest stroke when going down from a string to another in a sweeping fashion.
can i hear your music somewhere?

Django was not from France, but Belgium!
Sanat Claus on the other hand, I think he is from Finland.

I had the pleassure of listening to Sylvains CD and I really liked it.
He plays really well and the compositions and feeling/vibe throughout the CD is really nice. It is great to have him as a member here.

Django was born while his parents was travelling through Belgium, but his birth certificate was from Paris.

And everybody knows Santa are from Greenland.
