He Aloha No O Honolulu & He Aloha No Waimea - Ledward Kaapana Slack Key скачать видео бесплатно

When people talk about slack key and altered tunings, they often mention that choosing one tuning locks a player into one key, limiting their range. This is probably true of most people, but then Ledward Kaapana is _not_ most people.

In this clip his sister, Lei Aiken, is singing a couple of classic Hawaiian songs and her preferred key is F. Ledward is playing in taropatch G tuning, which is just the wrong tuning for playing the key of F, believe me. But no matter, he does his "pa`ani" or solos in G then modulates to F to color behind Lei's vocal. Jesse Gregorio, the bass player, can't stop grinning at the shift between keys!

This clip was recorded at Ledward's regular Sunday evening gig at The Kona Brewing Company restaurant in Hawai`i Kai. When he's on O`ahu on a Sunday he is almost always playing at Kona Brewing from 6 to 8 PM, for free.

The two shot of Led and Lei was done with a Lumix GH3, the back shot with Jesse was caught on a Lumix GM1, and the head shot of Ledward with a Lumix GX7. Audio recorded from the board to the Zoom H6. All editing in Edius.
