My dear, Vito,
Please forgive me but I’ve only just had the time to watch your recent videos and, as you might have expected, I’ve fallen in love with your mother!
I enjoyed her abundant enthusiasm and obvious zest for life. How lucky you are to have a mother with such a sunny disposition. Her beautiful eyes tell the whole story. And, of course, I was both impressed and amazed by your guitar playing…yet another one of your many talents! Is there no end to what you can do?
Like DaVinci, you truly are a renaissance man with boundless interests and
talents.
Love,
Gary
My dear, Vito,
Dearest Gary,
my God !!! What a great CD !!! Wowoooo !!! It's simply amazing !!! What a powerful and clear sound. Beautiful. The engraving quality is at the highest level and I have already entered all on the first page of my website. Simply The Genius !!! I find you in great shape and even Tyron is a great jazz musician. Tyron manages to sing his doublebass with the pizzicatos powerful and very clean. Great jazz !!! Wowooo !! But already in another your CDs I was able to admire your infinite potential of "jazzer" player. Wowooo !!! thank you for your beautiful letter. The cherish for my whole life. Dora my mom hugs you warmly and hope that you and Harmon can continue to live happy and serene. And I hope you can add thousands of your old and new videos on your personal channel of Youtube. What if I need help I'm just here for you and Harmon. Unfortunately I'm not a happy man. In fact, from January 1 of 2017 the Italian state will close my conservatory "G. Paisiello" which is the oldest in Italy. I will be out of work along with 70 other teachers. In Italy the musical situation is critical. There is no money for classical music. The traditional theaters are closing and it is impossible to live music. The musical quality of Italian orchestras is very low. And there are no places in the few remaining dilapidated and orchestras. Patience !!!
I will survive with private lessons of guitar and piano.
Love & Love !!!!
Vito
p.s.: This "Bass Brothers" CD will be an amazing success !!! SURE of It !!!
Thank you, my dear, Vito, for the information. I sent it to the conductor so, hopefully, it will help the performance!
Dear Gary,
today it's very and very easy to send some very heavvy video files.
First of all go here:
https://www.wetransfer.com/
Ok !!!
Then follow the easy instructions !!!
At the end you will have your personal account.
Use this account to send all your videos to director.
I suggest you not to break the videos.
You can send the "full" videos. I think it's better.
Tell me if you should have problems.
With all my love,
Vito & your New Fun my Mom "Donna Dora" !!!!
p.s.: an interesting technical aspect.
Listen Gary. When you play the "italian Tarantella" the last note of
the "triplet" must be very and veru short. The common mistake is to play it
not short.
It's the main musical aspect of this amazing "Napoli Dance" !!!
p.p.s.: your Tarantella is absolutely the best I have ever listened in all my
humble carreer !!!
BRAVISSIMO !!!!
My dear, Vito,
From the video of the recent recital that I sent you, is it possible to take just two pieces from the video to send to the conductor of my concert in
May? I don’t know how to do this! I’m playing with the Victoria Symphony on May 7th the Bottesini Reverie and Tarantella and I thought it would be good to send my performance to the conductor so
that she will be prepared for my tempi, ritardandi etc. What do you think of this? Is is possible and if it is how do I do it?
I’ve been enjoying taking photos videos around our house with the very tiny GoPro Hero camera. I still have to learn more about how to use it but it
takes time, especially for an ignoramus like me! I cannot wait to try to video my playing which will happen in a few weeks after I return to my studio in
Victoria.
With love,
Gary
My dear, Vito,
Thank you for all the information about YouTube and cameras. I have three Canon cameras in my studio but they’re already five years old and the new technology is
much better. I’m looking into the Hero4 Silver/Music and comparing it to what I now have. Now, with your encouragement I am getting really excited about spending time daily in my studio making
videos. Thank you so much for your enthusiasm and inspiration. I’m now obsessed with the ideas you gave me!
Love,
Gary
