Just came across this absolutely beautiful performance on YouTube from my old mate Ian Moffat of ADAM Blues by Joseph Horowitz.



Ian writes

"This beautifully crafted short piece was commissioned by 'ADAM', International Literary Review, for a celebration concert at the French Institute, South Kensington, London, on 17th October 1968. When I decided to record this, I was amazed to find that there are no other recordings of it out there on Youtube. Nor, it would seem, any available audio recordings. It is not a 'showy' piece, but the richness of the harmony has always appealed to me. So here, in the hope of giving this miniature masterpiece a wider audience, is my recording of Joseph Horovitz's Adam Blues".

You wondered a few days ago about slide vibrato.

Does this video help?

(Yes, it's all in the wrist!)
