Reflection by Amir Beso

As I was listening to the music of some of our friends on MySpace, I came across a song called "Reflection" by Amir Beso out of Seattle, WA. This is a guitar driven piece and has a hint of the Flamenco sound to it. This song is the kind of music you can relax or chill to; it makes you feel good. It has a lovely melody and a moderate tempo. The skill and talent of the artist is clearly revealed in the song.

I can't say that a specific image is elicited when listening to "Reflection." I suppose it could actually serve as background music for a time of reflection, but I prefer to just enjoy the beautiful melody, the sounds of the guitar and let myself be enveloped by the music. I find it definitely to be an enjoyable listening experience and would recommend checking it out.

Guitar Music At Its Best

Do you enjoy guitar music? If so, you will probably want to check out the music of one of music2work2's MySpace friends, Nello Angelucci[61]. He has a long history of studying under some of the music greats- first classical guitar, then jazz, and also Flamenco Guitar. He now lives in Japan; his music is classified as Acoustic/Flamenco/Jazz.

The six sample songs on Angelucci's MySpace page are a nice variety of different kinds of guitar music. His skill and versatility are evident in these selections.

All of the songs are lovely and provide a relaxing and calming mood. My favorite of the pieces is "Kio no kumori." It is a beautiful song, with an upbeat tempo.

I really enjoyed Nello Angelucci's music and recommend experiencing it yourself.
