The Ambassador of the inner beauty. Because everything starts in the head.
Truly honest
"says the index finger one day all of a sudden the middle finger: Why not make common cause with the ring and little fingers? You could help us would be neat to create new sounds, allowing the implementation of resulting ideas. We need no longer useless and hang around mope. It is what it is, we make the best of it. "
sooner said than done, and the thumb was also hired the same.
may sound like the beginning of all one of the worst jokes ever. In truth it is, the heart accompanied by a smile sprung, story about a new beginning. Years of hard training can imagine, a situation which is only one of us quite hard, a game developed technique called TapTap * and a huge portion of love later, this left us enchanted hand, it puts us in a state of wonder. From Chile to Los Angeles and New York to Vienna in the Margaret Street.
We are talking about Chilean exceptional guitarist Andres Godoy and with the opening words he tried to describe to us the situation in which he found himself after an accident in which he had lost his entire right hand. He was just fourteen years old and, according to his own testimony, much better guitar player than now. Hard to imagine being able to use the handicap despite only one limb. But one has Andres Godoy once met, one suddenly understands stuff in case one part leaden scales, which of our eyes, and thus our view of the profound things block too often, like leaves in the autumn trees, city park from. Andres ruled that a hand can still be a huge gift, and carried this wisdom not only with his guitar playing, but also 100% man.
It may sound bizarre, this man is truly an ambassador of light.
Proxima Parada: Alemania / Achen
In Chile has long been a "Star", an institution in the music scene, both as a producer, as vice president, director of Rock School, as a participant in various cultural activities or just musician with various bands, he moved to Germany in April 2009. A visa allowed him a six-month Residence, which he used to continuously adjust to tour. Solo, with his guitar.
And even if it increasingly appears that it may have to give everything in the ever-expanding Europe, then, according to the sector of South American musicians have plenty of room above. I had never ever thought with an interested eye on this scene to squint when the language but then missed the one accompanied months, then you are looking for new home in the old places where you need not necessarily German. And gives thanks Brought Connection and a little luck, it suddenly in Vienna first places where you are in a English-speaking community can move. The
then also a year in Chile as an organizer of various musical activities have been active among the many new people that hits, of course, very well. Just this
also acted as the organizer of this event.
Neruda
A stone's throw along with the good old Schikaneder opportunity and already tens of times I touched, is the Neruda , a bar or a cultural association that week with a small program rapture to know. The
Andres Godoy would occur once there, he's even with a schienbar not want to admit facial expression presented. He even said that his friends in Chile could not imagine that he betoure with the guitar all over Europe - in public. But that is precisely one of the phenomena. I'm not just one who has for years been looking for English-speaking exchange, let alone endure for hours English lyrics. According to my perception in this regard is expected in Vienna but register just a so-called "push" to open in this direction. Perhaps it is simply not noticed me before, so how much.
Right there also links the idea of a newfound contact, namely the existing well and interesting music scene in South America, be it more traditional music in the style of (South) Americana movement or rather rock / pop-heavy material.
sin espacio pero escénico convincente
course, there was no stage, a small amplifier and a bag full of stories were sufficient. The public, far from speaking only English, which also pointed to the apparently existing interest of related art. The concert, eyes and ears. The protagonist, an as of Ojos del Salado reduce radiant sun god.
would be really impressive and I was skeptical, but when I see play suddenly someone with only one hand guitar lines as if he would have four, from rock to salsa and tango everything is made, then I miss it a bit, the words, even if the other does not my music . Sung was still bilingual.
A summary of majority in respect impression leave Santander Truly this night was just honest. Nice that you are more than may first rely on their feelings.
For Andres Godoy it was a great introduction to a city that is now for me is once again to rediscover. But just as it works now, and if this is not so, then you need to make Andres same, namely to pack his things and throw himself into an adventure. Good to know that even that will work again.
* TapTap - is a way of playing the guitar composed hammering from the already existing styles , tapping and the manner of performance legato .
