"Images from Edinburgh II"

The second video recorded in the Royal Mile... the spectacular view of the "Holy road Park" in one hand and the Edinburgh Castle in the other mixed with the sound of pipes taken by the wind from all around the city made me think about using a celtic melody and I've decided to use one of my own..."Por los caminos", that in Spanish means: "Through the paths". This song remembers me walking in the mountains in northern Spain, over the grass in the western Irish cliffs in Donegal or having a round following a lake shore in the Highlands... choosing. My friend from Ferrara posted both clips in his channel MrGERIATRICO40 with some other excellent videos about his trips around Europe.  (Grazie mille)

                

"Images from Edinburgh I"

This video has recorded in June 2010 in Edinburgh´s Old Town. I was busking when I've met an Italian photographer from Ferrara taking pictures of the Royal Mile. We started to talk and decided to make this videoclip combinig my music with some pictures of the city. The chosen song was a southern spanish flamenco song called "La Malagueña" because of the notable presence of Spanish inmigrants in Scotland and trying to reflex the ambience between gothic towers surrounding us and an amazing green landscape full of hills surrounding the city.

               

"Spanish open-Mic Night" in Galway, Ireland

A homemade video recorded by a friend from ISIS (Irish-Spanish Integration Society) in BK's Bistro on 2009 playing with a spanish flamenco-guitarrist and friend, Sergio Rodriguez . We decided to amenize the meeting like a traditional spanish musician such as the great "Paco de Lucia" with the contagious rythm of a rumba, an improvised version of "Entre dos aguas".
