Very nice!
I may have missed it elsewhere on here but what are you playin on / through?
Very relaxing, and great tone !!!
Beautiful! I bought one of his christmas albums and I really like his tone and style.
Beautiful!
Beautiful i might need to add it to my rep.The human family can be the most wonderful unit.Music is a unifier like no other.
This is beautiful to listen to, I’m going to learn this piece, thank you.
Bob ..any chance you worked in RI 20 or so years ago….EE??? Probably not but I had to ask.
This is a neat piece that reflects the melodic focus that Vince places on his performances. Vince is a monster improviser as well, but that’s not the point of this piece. I have all 20 of the Dirk’s premium lessons, and they are each illuminating, fun to play, and well worth the price. Enjoy!
Ron, What’s your take on the minimum level of proficiency a player should be at before getting into these. I’m certainly not a new player but really get lost on a lot of theory stuff.
A lovely song. Not too complex, but just enough to be music to the ear. And really well played. Thank you so much, Steve.
Lovely piece of music and well played but why do guitar players always arpeggiate chords? Gets quite boring and a little irritating. Chord tones played simultaneously would be nice for a change 🙂
Hey Cedric…I appreciate your comment, and I don’t always arpeggiate the chords when I play tunes, but a lot of players find it helpful when learning one of my arrangements so that they can hear the notes of chord formations that may be new to them more clearly. That way they can be sure they have the position correctly with the proper notes sounding. Best Regards always..Vince
Great to see Vince’s material here. He is such a great player and a wonderful friend. I’m glad you like his tone. He plays a Ralston 16″ VL Signature that I build him.
Nice!
What an apt title for a song, simplicity and classy also . Thank you
Very nice. Vince is a great player and teacher.
So beautiful and soothing to the ear and mind. Thank you.
Yes…..loved this piece….very relaxing….and not too difficult either…..with a bit of practice I can play this!……Thanks a lot….
I am playing with an alto sax player. If he plays in key of C as presented on above chart, I have to play my guitar in key of E flat. Am I correct? If so, is there a way to change the sheet music above to E flat for my part? I could capo on third fret I believe but I hate to shorten the range on the neck. Harder to improvise chords (at least for me it is!). Thanks!
Love this version. Especially with key change you put in. Very unuasual and cool sounding.
Thank you! Excellent!
Wow!Great.please send me the mp3 of these tune.
Great arrangement. The voicing of the chords just bring an already joyous song alive. I would love an mp3 so I can rehearse sections at a time. Thank you so much.
I love this thank you’re so much for this great work, please how do I get the mp3 of the amazing grace and Start of a beautiful song
Here is my email davidhandsum@yahoo.com thank you
