| Ralf can be New Age at times. He recorded for New Age label Narada Records. But he can also play very dynamically. SA I'm sure about that. Exactly...it was on Narada. I don't remember around what years...probably about 20 years ago and the production was great. I bought a lot of this New Age music ... |

How is it going with your stick Martin? Did you change the strings? Is the tuning good for you?
I've seen your first message with an attempt to put a picture. That would be nice to put one. At the bottom of your screen you have a special spot to do it...good luck. |
