Lover´s Leap (Bela Fleck) Cover Mandolin

in #dsound5 years ago


Lover´s Leap - Composer: Bela Fleck

Cover mandolin Rodnell Matos

He describes himself as the "eccentric banjo", an adjective that fits perfectly with his music, a peculiar mixture between bluegrass, funk, world music, pop and jazz. But Béla Fleck's eccentricity is not so in the strict sense because, unlike other geniuses, he avoids any pretension. The sound created by this instrumentalist and composer from New York can be explained by a love for music that is very open-minded and by the desire to reach a larger and more diverse audience, which can share a small moment of happiness in the same concert. With this philosophy, he has been the leader of an incendiary band since 1989, nominated 21 times for the Grammies, winner of 4 of these awards and famous for its eternal tours of 200 concerts in the same year. Critics and audiences have surrendered at the feet of these four fusion heavyweights, who have shared adventures with collaborators such as Shawn Colvin, Jon Anderson, John Medeski and Adrian Belew. They have shown that it is possible to demolish borders with a stroke of determination and authenticity.
Here my cover with my fellows Chistian Méndez in the Venezuelan Cuatro and Angel Barrios in the Bass.

Lover´s Leap - (El salto de los enamorados - Composer: Bela Fleck

Versión mandolina Rodnell Matos

Se autodescribe como el "banjo excéntrico", adjetivo que se adecúa perfectamente a su música, una peculiar mezcla entre bluegrass, funk, world music, pop i jazz. Pero la excentricidad de Béla Fleck no lo es en sentido estricto porque, a diferencia de otros genios, rehuye toda pretensión. El sonido que ha creado este instrumentista y compositor de Nueva York se explica por un amor por la música muy abierto de miras y por la voluntad de llegar a un mayor y diverso público, que puede compartir en un mismo concierto un pequeño instante de felicidad. Con esta filosofía, lleva desde 1989 como líder de una banda incendiaria, nominada en 21 ocasiones a los Grammy, ganadora de 4 de estos galardones y famosa por sus eternas giras de 200 conciertos en un mismo año. Crítica y público se han rendido a los pies de estos cuatro pesos pesados de la fusión, que han compartido aventuras con colaboradores de la talla de Shawn Colvin, Jon Anderson, John Medeski y Adrian Belew. Han demostrado que es posible demoler fronteras a golpes de determinación y autenticidad.

Aquí nuestra versión, junto a mis compañeros Christian Méndez en el Cuatro y Angel Barrios en el Bajo.

Con cariño.
Rodnell
