Thank you.Andrew York is one of today’s best loved composers for classical guitar and a performer of international stature. If you like pop and jazz music played with classical guitar, let me also suggest you “ Summer Song“, that is a composition of mine. Enjoy with the tab and the video of “Emergence” by Andrew York.
After a slower start as a Corale, begins a section on which obstinate bass with hammer-on accompany simple melodies. “ Emergence” is a piece for solo classical guitar that releases a lot of energy, and that also requires a certain virtuosity to be played.
Guitarist composer Andrew York has a great experience of concerts around the world, he won a Grammy award in 2005 and his compositions have been played by great guitarists such as John Williams.
