descripção
Suite for guitar in 3 movements. Atmospheric music with beautiful rhythms and harmonies.
“Drie Rivieren“ (Three Rivers) is an homage to three ancient and iconic rivers that have witnessed life since the beginning of time.
1. Kronkelend door de jungle (Winding through the jungle)
2. Langs de Vallei der Koningen (Passing by the Valley of the Kings)
3. Doorheen de lichtstad (Through the city of light)
The suite starts with “Kronkelend door de jungle” (Winding through the jungle) which is an ode to the Amazon river (Brazil). A river boat winds slowly through the rainforest. Colorful birds fill the sky singing beautiful melodies. The sun is setting.
This is followed by a more royal experience with “Langs de Vallei der Koningen” (Passing by the Valley of the Kings). Here we are traveling back in time on The Nile (Egypt) where we are witnessing, from some distance, a ceremony of the pharaohs, the coronation of the "gold king" Tutankhamun perhaps.
We end our journey in Paris (France) on the Seine. The lights have just come on in the city; we see the Eiffel Tower in the distance; music reaches our ears from the many cafe’s and we enjoy a romantic evening out with our loved one. It’s a night that we will cherish forever.
