Ruben: I have just enjoyed the practice of Turquoise #2. This is a wonderful number that begins with the listener looking out on the turquoise hue of the ocean and I can imagine our ship coming into shore on the waves of the guitar you offer in the introduction.

But then, we enter the rain forest and there is a marvellous exchange of vocalizations from the birds their calls brilliantly played by the exchange of the soprano sax and the flute followed later by your replies with the guitar.

The forest ecosystem is a complex one, just as is this offering of Turquoise with the vibrant rhythms and jazz passages. My compliments to the entire group. I would like to see the camera focus on the bassist and other guitarist as well at times in order to have the full measure of the experience.

Thanks for sharing as always.
