solo acoustic guitar (slight chorus added) guitar: unidentified parlor guitar from 1890=1910 (I figure). the action is somewhat poor, since the guitar was modified somewhere along the line - the original bridge and tailpiece were replaced with a peg-bridge that has pulled on the spruce top. although the instrument is difficult to play, the sound is beautiful. this is based on a very short pentatonic riff which devolves into parallel fifths, augmented chords, and a number of major unadulterated chords. no picks were used. i'm very happy with this piece, which is one of my best. - alan http://www.asondheim.org/breenga.mp3
