Lovely. Reminds me a bit of Ralph Towner, but with a difference sense of harmony. I have been a big fan of Wolfgang for years. Incredible player and composer.
oh oui ! ! !, les harmonies de Ralph Towner ( guitariste que j'adore , par dessus tout ) sont très très différentes mais les deux sont des guitaristes d'exception ! !
Don’t know how I haven’t discovered your beautiful playing before…what a “voice”. Incredibly mysterious, plus all the passion, grace and fire that I love from my favorite players. Way to let the music breathe.
First to comment .. yay !!! Just heard this live on Mal Stanley's Jazztrack on Australia's ABC-FM about half an hour ago .. you can stream it yourself for a little while if you like .. and here it is .. just uploaded to You Tube at about the same time .. serendipity .. so we can all see it played .. a blessing .. and so very beautiful .. thank you !!! ...
Wow! .. such compelling music, my first listen to Wolfgang and his group. I will be spending lots of time absorbing this great performance. Thanks very much for posting this.
love this trio! perfectly balanced. would like to hear more trio recordings. the work with Towner, "Travel Guide" was a revelation and I sought our more of your music. The quintet is no slouch either, but your sound is well suited for the trio format (to me), mainly because I get to hear more of your playing!
Dear woflgang..last night i had the great pleasure of hearing you for the very first time. I had not heard of you before and therefore had absolutely no expectations-i was invited by a friend who is the director of the hall you played at in Sydney..In a concert filled with as many highlights as there are constellations, I loved the Joni Mitchell tribute (Amelia), the highflying energy and sheer joyousness that was 'Meldhau' and your heartfelt encore "Father & Sun'. Thank you for sharing your musicality, your fantastic musical partners & Co Conspirators in crime namely Brian 'drum-tastic' Blade and Larry 'badass bass'' Grenadier..I am still recovering. Ps have you recorded the Joan?
Diretto erede di Ralph Touner sa conciliarne come lui sapientemente gli aspetti contemporanei di fusione fra la musica di estrazione colta con il jazz di sintesi. Fra i più interessanti chitarristi apparsi nell'ultimo trentennio. Composizione e tecnica portata a cuore e sentimento.
Great trio! Great balance and refinement. Congratulations! Can I ask you what kind of contact mic do you use in this video? The sound of your classical guitar is great. Thank you in advance. Claudio
"The cambiata is a figure that usually begins with a downward second to an unaccented note, then a downward third followed by an upward second to another unaccented note, so that it ends a third away from its beginning. Both the second and third notes can be dissonant."
Interesting note on this. I'm currently doing an analysis of his recording of this on driftwood (2014) and his whole open impro at the beginning has all these little cambiata figures spread through out it. I'd be really interested to know if that was at all intentional.
The sound of the classical guitar is really impressing!! It's great how it works even playing together with the trio. Never heard this trio sound bevor!! Does anyone know which microphones (especially the one sticked to the soundboard) are used?
Beautiful music and beautiful playing, but something's off with the sound of the rack tom, like a secondary resonant tone. It's possible that it isn't noticed on stage. It's subtle but intrusive, as I hear it. A small but noticeable stain on an otherwise immaculate recording.
gosh, I just discovered one of my favorite guitarists ever... this is a good day
0:32 the most gracious way to play y the licc

what a superb and overlooked musician muthspiel is.
Cuando la belleza y la técnica se unen surge la mayor emoción. Maravilloso.

Listening to Wolfgang Muthspiel is always an incredible journey. Would never miss him playing live! (And he even can sing like a young James Taylor!)
nice to see Muthspiel bringing back Europe into his playing
Full state of trance. Thanks from Argentina!
Astonishingly good
So wonderful to see and feel the space, your guys give each other, and the music itself. Thank you...
love this. Your music is exquisite. The trio, such wonderful interplay.
Great! One of the best guitar players all over the world and times. Thanks for sharing!!!

bravo!
marvellous!
CLASSE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's young enough to be a disciple of Towner. It sure sounds like the master's influence.
very nice ...
Fucking Christ that was unbelievable!
:-) great!
could somebody please explain what cambiata means in terms of music theory?
"The cambiata is a figure that usually begins with a downward second to an unaccented note, then a downward third followed by an upward second to another unaccented note, so that it ends a third away from its beginning. Both the second and third notes can be dissonant."

goood
Vol apart tempo ,noten de rust geven.
Breathtaking! I absolutely love it :-)
What transducer do you use for amplifying the classical guitar, if I may ask?
Thank You! its a mixture of a Schoepps mic and a B band A1.2
