You, Sir, are virtuoso, of the highest order. As a wannabe classical guitarist, I know how demanding it is to play the instrument, the guitar, I mean. Now add the complexity of the "Stick", and I am lost! All I can say is WOW! Thank you for your gift to us.
Bob- WOW!!!!!!!!!!! What a pleasant surprise. (I was one of those people who had asked if you did a rendition of Asturias.) Thank you so much. You take the Stick places mankind has never gone with it before! (Your acoustic version is fabulous, too!)
A brilliant performance respectful of the past, but leaping into the future. I remember listening to the early experiments in the 70's and being rocked by it. But... now? Wow. Amazing.
Went to the Ann Arbor art festival today and heard Bob play for the first time. Wow! Was I ever impressed. I asked him question after question. My only mistake is that I didn't get him to sign my cd I bought off of him :-( I hope someday to be able to afford one of these instruments. Bob is so inspirational and plays so beautifully! Wow!
This is a beautiful piece. What is the dynamic capacity of the instrument? -- it seems that the 'tapping' would be quite a bit more difficult to control than plucked or hammered strings. I felt the the 'droning' notes overpowered the melody compared to what I am used to -- but different instruments will color music in their own way and I'm aware of this. I enjoyed listening; thanks for the post.
Beautiful and stunning piece, i think the intro requires a better palate for music than i have, your stick playing is superb nonetheless, right up there with Rob Martino though thats just my opinion
A pleasure to see you perform. Thanks for the CD! Is there any chance the Zelda transcript I heard you play is available? I've been hoping to share a recording with some of my friends. Best of luck!
I love the musical experience that comes with listening to someone preform different pieces, but it's just very quiet, and not very warm. Not my kind of instrument... maybe I'm jaded from guitar.

I never get tired of stick music especially your work. Been buying your albums to play in the car.

You sir, are truly amazing! Thank you for making such beautiful music.

Utterly spellbinding, Bob! This is an incredible rendition of this piece.
Saw that performed live on Pier 39, SF a few days ago. Great!
World Class performance on every count! What an inspiring performance from a great, great teacher and player!
Extra ordinary performance. Thanks
Bob thanks I needed that!Love your dynamics.This is why I love this instrument it gets emotional in a way it's cousin the 🎹 can not do.
Interestingly, this piece was originally written for piano. Check it out if you don't believe it.
So so so...Wonderful!😍
Bob! That is so beautiful that I receive moist eyes. Bravo and Thanks...

A pleasure to see you perform. Thanks for the CD!
Is there any chance the Zelda transcript I heard you play is available? I've been hoping to share a recording with some of my friends.
Best of luck!
Very nicely done, but I miss the Raseugos. Are they not possible on the instrument?
👏👏👏❤️
You made it sound better than guitar.. BRAVO !
Olé!

I play music... but not like Bob. I'm jealous and mystified. I'm......... speechless.
Too bad the great Spanish pianist Alicia de Laroccha is not around to hear this!
a chapman stick
sounds like MIDI
