Landslag I by Gulli Björnsson
After week I'm tried to record finally. I've made near 10 takes and this is not perfect best the best I could do for now.
This record help me to spot thumb problems with the nail shape and movement in general so will do some corrections.
-
That was very good, Slava. I am only vaguely aware of Bjornsson. Your recording has inspired me look into his works.
Welcome to Tonebase, I noticed you just joined this month. I hope to hear more of your playing.
-
Jack Stewart The eleven ‘Landscapes’ were composed for ToneBase and can be found in the virtual library. They are definitely worth having a look at.
-
David Krupka I think that is where I first became aware of Bjornsson, though I didn't explore the pieces very thoroughly. I will definitely take a second look.
-
Jack Stewart Then that'll be the time next January, I hope to see you in this challenge!
-
Blaise Laflamme I'll have to see if I will have regained enough technique from my 3 week hiatus from playing (trip to Spain). At my age, I lose technique much faster than I regain it and 3 weeks is enough to wipe out everything I can do.
-
Jack Stewart sure... but at least the first ones are not that hard if I recall and they are progressive.

Slava That was great you brought back this since the initial community challenge this work was created for started 2 years ago in December 2020! I hope you'll record the following ones, you did great! Jack Stewart As I quickly exchanged with Martin a few weeks ago that'd be great if we re-run this challenge, those pieces are very interesting and it's been too long since we had a community challenge!
-
Blaise Laflamme That’s a great idea, Blaise. These ‘Landscapes’ are definitely worth revisiting! And as you say, it’s been quite a while since we’ve had a community challenge. I hope Martin follows through with this. (And I hope it lasts longer than two weeks - two months would be more like it for an amateur trying to get through so much material.).
-
Blaise Laflamme We will have another go at the Landslag in January, I think the perfect month for icy pieces like these!
-
David Krupka and I did not participate in this challenge at the time
-
martin Woohoo!
and you're right, perfect time to have cold hands!

Well played, Slava! Thanks for sharing your performance with the ToneBase community.
-
David Krupka Thank you!
-
-
Very well played, Slava! Your guitar sound and recording quality were very good also!
-
Wai Thank you!

Really nice in a lot of ways. The playing is fantastic but so is the sound of the guitar and the quality of the recording. Congrats and thanks for sharing.
End of the Year Challenge: Finish Strong!
