Free Music Review: A concert
Hit: 3 Stars
Three of the four guitarists on stage look nervous, nursing their right hands and giving furtive glances to eachother. The fourth smiles confidently - "don't worry friends, I WILL HANDLE ALL THE TRILLS". "But Paul", says one "we still havent agreed on - " "SILENCE" booms Galbraith, his voice magnified by a resonater box connected to his torso - "SILENCE FOOLS!!!!!! I WILL ORNAMENT THIS MUSIC so NOOOOO ONE WILL hear THE MELODIC LINE!! MWAAAA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAA".
The concert begins and the first note sounds something like this -
bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-bidlle iddle-deeeeeee (thats the first note).
Some way into the first piece the guitarist on Galbraiths right seems to become even more nervous and introverted... Little do the audience know that he is about to attempt a trill which Galbraith instructed him to play and which he has never quite mastered (having only 5 fingers on his right hand). But Galbraith, seeing the trouble, leaps across the stage, lands flat under the guitarist in question and, still lying sprawled on the stage at full stretch, leans across and plays the trill for him, his right hand a blur of fingers and tendons exploding into frenzied trilling. 'Disaster averted' thinks Galbraith, as he floats, Indian Guru style, back to his super-guitar-with-multiple-resonator-box command station 'Once again I have saved the world from harmful melodic material'.
I noticed one trill in Galbraith's lute suite recording that seems to imitate a fire-engine noise. Its in the french overture section of the prelude to lute suite BWV 995. (it goes 'ding dong ding dong ding dong la da deeee). I am being quite serious.
All credit to Galbraith, he is a sensitive and brilliant guitarist, but I will never see eye to eye with him. He should continue to play as he does though, becuase he obviously feels it very passionatly.
