Скачать или смотреть Dirge For Avalon (Harald Koll). Fingerstyle guitar: Diego Garro

This is a piece for solo fingerstyle guitar by Dutch composer/guitarist Harald Koll. You can order the CD and tab book at www.gitaarspel.nl

The slow waltz ballad tempo and the melodic profile of this piece flirt beautifully with Irish folk music. In terms of compositional technique Dirge for Avalon is a masterpiece of guitar-music writing. The melody line is always skillfully intertwined with the accompanying arpeggio yet it gives the performer enough separation between the two so he/she is able to interpret the two indipendently.
The major key creates a contradictorily joyful lament; performer and listeners are left wondering whether it is joy or longing that emanates from this poignant gem of fingerstyle guitar.
