Really enjoyed this...although, a few times during my listen, I had this strong impulse to just walk away from it all:D Hey. Did you ever live in L.A.? I knew a David Berry there in about 1980 that I worked on some music with that I lost track of.
First of all I love you all!
You are so kind and musically perceptive about my pieces it really makes the hard labour worth it!
The comment about buildings stripped away is spot on!
Also here are the other sonatas. More personal than orchestral music but this is a great site to share them.
No 1 is me trying to imitate Mozart, 2 Beethoven (more stormy!) and 3 the great Bach, my personal favourite. Enjoy!
Peace

Fantastic song writing Dave. When you rolled from acoustic to "rockin" it stole my heart. One hell of a piece of music. A total kitchen sink song. It's got it all.
The guitar is great when it comes in at 1:21! For some reason this sort of has a Dave Matthews Band groove to it which dig. Nice lyrics and vocal delivery.
Great guitar playing! This one has lots feeling to it. I was bobbing my head along the whole time. I'm not much of a lead player so I like listening to other people who can play lead! Well done tune!
We call this Beat-box ghosts (the prog-fu mix). A fun collab between Osckilo and myself. Osckilo had this song he did called Ghosts, all done beat-box. I had to ask him what beat-box meant, I had no idea. I took his original track (just his…

The flute on this piece is done by a very gifted flute player by the name of Melinda Eckels. You will hear Melinda on any of the songs where I use flute. Her abilities have spoiled me so, that I can never use keyboard or my limited flute skills…

Well, I had this crazy idea that *maybe* Buddy Guy was using some microtonal inflections in his cover of Tramp (which are what the "blue notes" are and thought it would be cool to cover it with my fretless guitar. As it turned out it was my ear…

Deadlines, freeways, appointments, things to do lists, expectations, getting older, not enough hours in the day to get everything done? ..... make each day and moment count! Thanks to Dave Matthews for a lick I threw in there. Enjoy!

Comments on Dave Berry's stuff
This is some serious lady undressing music! nice guitar work!
Awesome stuff. This would be great music to play during a drive through the mountains, where the air is so crisp and clear!
Excellent Storytelling Dave.
Great laidback summer day vibe! Very clever use of tempo changes also. Perfect sounds for today's lazy afternoon.

I love this tune, Dave! Great playing, and really liking the vox on this one as well. Mark
This one has a really nice full frequency spectrum. It sound very lush and full. I dig the bass.
The guitar is great when it comes in at 1:21! For some reason this sort of has a Dave Matthews Band groove to it which dig. Nice lyrics and vocal delivery.

This has a great feel to it! Really nice instrumentation. The production is spot on. That guitar synth sounds pretty cool! Excellent collaboration!
