New Online Resource

Hey all! It's been a while since I posted.  I'm going to make a better effort at keeping it updated more regularly.
Here's an online "magazine" that the folks at the Iserlohn Guitar Festival are using to post the info on their festival. It's pretty cool! Check it out.

▶ Scott Tennant Canción y Danza Antonio Ruiz Pipó

This Video was recorded on January 31st, 2014 as part of the 2013-2014 Portland Guitar Series.

Mr. Ed by Rodrigo?

This is a photo montage I posted on YouTube this evening. One of 3, actually. I have no videos of these, but I wanted to share them anyway. This one is from a CD called "MOZART TV", released by the old Delos label a decade or so ago. Yes, TV themes in the style of great composers!

This one is "Mr. Ed" in the style of Joaquín Rodrigo. Grant Gershon conducted the Hollywood Chamber Symphony, a group that was assembled specifically for this project, and included all of the top studio musicians in LA. What a blast it was to record this.

They did actually professionally film the session, although I don't have a copy. It can be seen now and then on public television's "Classical Showcase" late at night.

A French Connection?

Kai Narrezo from GSI filmed an impromptu performance of me sampling a new 2012 guitar built by my favorite luthier: Daniel Friederich. Here I am playing a baroque piece by Francois Couperin, "Les Barricades Mysterieuses".

Jeff "The Dude" Bridges on the new iPad App

The new iPad App from "On The Music Path" is really reaching out to a lot of people, and everyone seems to be getting a lot of help and enjoyment from it. Jeff Bridges was at the App launch session where we all performed a tune or two, and they were able to sit him him down and get his feedback.

See it here. The link:

An Old Video I just found

This is an old LAGQ promo video we did back in the mid-90's. It brings up a lot of old memories when I watch it. I hope you enjoy!
