  • Clip of the track 'Dovul' from the forthcoming DVD with The Registan Group
    In 2002 The British Council made it possible for Scottish Contemporary traditional act ‘The Iron Horse’ to come together with the twenty piece Uzbekistan chamber orchestra -Sogdiana, in a memorable musical fusion. Roy Marchbank (then guitarist and co composer with the The Iron Horse) had reworked a traditional Uzbekistan piece fusing it with traditional Scottish rhythm and tuning. On flying to Tashkent an intense ten days of rehearsals and recording culminated in live concerts in Samarkand and Tashkent ( the latter televised live to millions)
    Now, after staying in close contact for twenty years, Zulkhorbek Turapov (and Komiljon Shermatov , originally of Sogdiana) are reunited with Roy Marchbank as The Registan Group. The collaboration, has created a new and exciting World Fusion, incorporating ancient and original playing techniques with with Jazz, Flamenco, Classical and Traditional influences “To say this meeting of musical minds and cultures has produced something wonderfully unique is an understatement" says Roy “We all look forward to performing this together live in concert”

    This would be unbelievable based on the fact that a human being has the ability to execute it, but the thing that really makes it special is that the music is absolutely beautiful; the chops are insane, but totally in service of making beautiful music!

    • @LawofThree
      @LawofThree  Рік тому +5

      Recording sessions back in the day ‘early 90’s pre internet’ put me in situations where it was sink or swim. Fortunately I had played classical guitar since I was a kid so by the time I was in my 20’s recording a lot of acoustic material wasn’t problematic. That said I couldn’t afford decent gear so the guitars I used were hired. If you couldn’t do the gig there was always someone else who could and if said person got the gig the phone would simply stop ringing. Those situations made me a much better player and raised my awareness of world culture and the different techniques required to play various genres. Old school working class life education was a big like Russian roulette. Do it or find a park bench… No kiddin!

      Cheers bud! There is no full concert footage at the moment Pat but there will be someday soon with luck! This was recorded during lockdown and now we are in the process of organising playing live together once again. There is however a concert you can watch live where the Registan Group will be performing Live in Tashkent presenting their new work without me on the 24th if you are interested. I will also be watching virtually 😊

    Absolutely insane!!! How do you switch from muted to unmuted at 1:47? Doesn’t look like you are palm muting, is the muted sound coming from the fretting hand?

    • @LawofThree
      @LawofThree  3 роки тому +7

      Cheers bud. The mute comes from the pick hand. I pinch the pick so the edge of the thumb and first finger touch the string immediately after the note is played. I demonstrate this technique on the coronavirus videos if your interested. Here’s the link
