Larry Coryell and Paco de Lucia - Guitar Duet

Posted by tony hogan on Apr 07 2008 | Scales, acoustic guitar, guitar, guitar site goal, improvisation, normal tuning

This is a brilliant duet that exemplifies how beautiful two guitars of different styles can work together, still play fast and sound musical.  Coryell’s playing in this tune, when he takes a guitar break reminds of the great player from Belgium Philip Catherine.  It’s a very fine line always, playing at a very high technical level but trying to keep musical.  Playing fast is not hard at all, being musical and playing fast is hard.  It requires technique, restraint and the correct use of both speed, space and phrasing.
