Denny Breau - BIO - http://www.dennybreau.com/home.htm


Denny Breau’s rhythmically flawless and dazzlingly clear style allows him to do amazing and stunning things with a six-string guitar. He first draws in an audience with a finely arranged melody and then slides effortlessly into scorching fingerwork that sets ears aflame. The lighting fast guitar lines that seem almost humanly impossible to accomplish are balanced with those that have a quiet intimacy and wrap tenderly around his carefully crafted songs. He mixes genres with ease — folk, Delta blues, country and jazz — “creating a totally accessible musical mélange that captivates as it entertains,” according to Lucky Clark writing for the Kennebec (Maine) Journal.

Guitarists in the audience often suspect that they have been left in the dust and regularly tell Denny that they might as well hang up their guitars! As Denny greets concert-goers and shakes hands following his performances, guitar players invariably ask how he performs certain techniques and Denny, who has a passion for teaching, is happy to show them. This is especially true when demonstrating the guitar style of Chet Atkins, who was a family friend and major influence. Shows usually include a “smartly executed Chet Atkins medley by Breau who truly does the late Atkins proud,” according to a review in Dirty Linen magazine.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Denny was born to the instrument on May 26, 1952. His parents, Hal Lone Pine and Betty Cody, were popular country performers and RCA recording artists beginning in the 1940s. His older brother, the late Lenny Breau, is considered a jazz guitar giant. A recent Dirty Linen review of Denny’s solo CD of “neighborly song portraits of weathered souls” said that "listening to Denny nimbly bend his acoustic steel strings…one can hear a jazz player’s elegant fluidity.”

Denny started playing guitar when he was 9 years old and was performing professionally by his early teens. During more than 30 years as a full-time musician, he has performed with many well-known artists and picked alongside outstanding guitarists including Bryan Sutton, Harvey Reid, J.P. Cormier, Pat Donohue, Dan Crary and Steve Kaufman. He has long been in demand as a studio musician and has done jingles and sound tracks for radio and television as well as recorded and produced albums for other artists. Denny was a member of roots music trio Turkey Hollow with Tom Rowe and Tom's son Dave starting in 1998. Since Tom's death in early 2004, Denny and Dave have continued to perform as Turkey Hollow on a limited bases. Denny was inducted into the Maine Country Music Hall of Fame in 2004, the youngest inductee in the history of the organization.

In addition to an active solo career, Denny gives private guitar lessons and teaches music clinics. He also fronts the Denny Breau Trio. Both in solo and trio performances, musical boundaries disappear as Denny takes his music to wherever the joy and spirit of the moment leads him.

Denny is a triple threat: a consummate picker, evocative songwriter, and a singer with a " voice that is warm and inviting but completely unpretentious— much like the singer himself," according to Lucky Clark. Mainers have long considered Denny a "must –see," but they are happy to share a favorite son with those "from away."

DADGAD Tuning


DADGAD TuningCommonly known as “D Modal Tuning”, DADGAD has become very pop- ular among acoustic fingerstyle guitarists. The notes of the open strings form a Dsus4 chord, which is neither major nor minor. Start by tuning the low E string down a whole step to D. Next, tune the B string downa whole step to A. Finally, tune the high E string down a whole step to D. Jimmy Page used this tuning in some classic Led Zeppelin songs like “Kashmir” and “Black Mountain Side.” Celtic guitarists also use DADGAD because of the ability to have so many chords that involve open strings.
Tonalidade DADGAD comumente conhecido como "D Modal Tuning", DADGAD tornou-se muito popular entre guitarristas acústico-fingerstyle. As notas das cordas soltas formam um acorde D4, que não é nem maior nem menor. Comece por afinar a corda E (1a.) um tom abaixo. Em seguida, ajustar a seqüência B (2a.) em A. Por fim, afine a corda E (6a.) em D.
Jimmy Page usou essa afinação em alguns clássicos do Led Zeppelin em canções como "Kashmir" e "Black Mountain Side", guitarristas Celtic também usam DADGAD por causa da possibilidade de ter várias cordas que envolvem cadeias abertas.

Em algum lugar do planeta. . .

. . . sempre existirá um maluco com um violão na mão, um monte de idéias na cabeça em forma de canções, e uma galera pra ouví-lo, no dia que o sal da terra acabar, isso não mais terá a menor graça.

Não sou um cara muito chegado as tais valsas, Explico!!! Quando era muleque, fui muito exposto a esse tipo de música, mas tudo que chegava, a abordagem, execução eram péssimas, o que criou em mim, verdadeira ogeriza.
Como não sou um radical, assisti esse vídeo e achei muito legal, se vc não curtir o estilo, apenas preste atenção na execução, e nas possibilidades sonoras, só isso já vale!
