Review of 2009

December 31st, 2009 admin No comments

As is normal at this time of year, I have motionless to do a discerning examination, and prominence a small of the many renouned blog posts.

2009 has positively been busy.

Despite tellurian retrogression Robin has trafficked to over thirty countries( I gave up counting in the end.. .) and achieved to many thousands of people.
It is regularly a pleasure when Robin receives comments and feedback after a unison, and when someone goes to the difficulty of looking the artist out to demonstrate their unrestrained, it is even some-more rewarding.

It hasn’t all been great though.

We have been tormented by ‘pirates’ with well in additional of 10 000 bootleg downloads, and those have been the ones I know about.

Not separate, as vital jot down companies try to find a approach around these issues, was a sold low mark for me, as we had to lift out of recording Robin’s concerto, ‘Eternal Dances’ with the fanciful London Symphony Orchestra due to appropriation problems associated to the recession.
However, yesterday I was gay to embrace an email from a lady in Ireland, who had listened one transformation played on RTE, and was so taken by it which he managed to hit me to demonstrate his enthusiasm.
I know which this square will be an well-developed further to the exemplary guitar concerto repertoire and will thus aspire to the plan with renewed appetite in 2010.

Looking behind by a small of the blog posts in 2009 there were a couple of which stood out.

Back in Feb we assimilated Reverbnation .
This post, ‘The Stories Behind the Music – Robin Hill on Reverbnation’ does just as it says . A small discernment in to each of the pieces accessible on the player.

Then in Mar there was a opening of Rodrigo’s, ‘Concierto de Aranjuez’ and the analogous post, ‘The Concierto de Aranjuez, an really old vinyl and recommendation on spike care.’

In Jun we were gay to find which one of Robin’s pieces, ‘Dolor de Muelas’ had been nominated for an endowment, ‘JPF Music Awards 2009 – Nominee…Robin Hill!!’
Whilst the square didn’t go onto win, it was a large feat to reach this stage.

Also in Jun a warn prime post which came about from a elementary subject acted on Twitter, as to either musicians similar to to eat prior to, or after, a concert.
I’m gladdened to all those which replied, and would similar to you to know which this post continues to be review every day around the world! ‘To Eat or Not to Eat – Prior to a Concert’.

Then in Jul a miracle was reached as we distinguished the 3rd Birthday . Quite an feat in the blogging universe, and one which I am rsther than unapproachable of . ‘Life of a Musician’ 3rd Birthday’.

By far the many renouned post of the complete blog, never mind the final 3 years, was created in October.
‘Music Practice Tips – Exemplary Guitar’ continues to be review worldwide on a every day basis.
The post itself is an remove from Robin’s book, ‘The Guitar Gymnasium’, so all those who have found it engaging should maybe sequence themselves a duplicate, as the post is usually a fragment of report which has been attempted and tested over a extensive behaving career.

But for right away I would similar to to appreciate all my readers for stability to follow the hold up of this sold musician and to instruct you all a really happy and full of health 2010.
