Stringed Instruments

December 25th, 2006

At this time of year, as we know, angels are bending near the earth to touch their harps of gold.

John Naughton is posting links to an amazing interpretation of Pachelbel’s Canon on the electric guitar.

And I’m reposting a link to Jake Shimabukuro, who is bending near the earth in Central Park to touch his ukulele of gold. This piece transformed my view of the ukulele (which, I readily admit, wasn’t very well-developed beforehand!)

May you all have a musical, happy and peaceful Christmas!
