After re-stringing my 1973 Ramirez 1A 10-string in the Narciso Yepes/Modern tuning (1-10: e b g d a E C Bb Ab Gb ) the resulting sound inspired me to explore the resonances and tones that are readily available in it, allowing me to pull music that's outside of what I'm usually known for. This impromptu will bend the ears of those not used to Modern musical language, but I find it intriguing. The video is edited as such, to illustrate the out of body experience one strives for in pure improvisation.... with no preconceived notions influencing the exploratory spirit.
