Solid Air Records. Instructional DVD

From the same series as Al Petteway and Doug Smith one can
also choose David Cullen's DVD Jazz, Classical and Beyond,
which mainly focuses on acoustic jazz, classical and contemporary 
guitar techniques. This DVD contains pieces as Blue Counterpoint ,
Indigo Blue, Groove Etude, Midari, Bahama Beach, Go Ahead & Play
Coming Home and Ebb and Flow. When one practices enough it
enables you to play close to the level  this sublime guitarist performs.
There is no tablature or notes on this DVD included,  you can order
this separately with a CD from Solid Air Records.Three cameras
observe the right and the left hand techniques in close up as well as
an overall shot. This is an unique way to learn all the secrets you can't
obtain from the regular tablature. An intermediate level is required to
play his fine compositions. With the multi angled view on the left and
right hand it is possible to come close to the level this fantastic
all-round guitarist presents on this DVD.
