Description

Buscarino players Gene Bertoncini, Ron Afiff, Barry Greene and Corey Christiansen were filmed at the annual Buscarino Players Concert at the Long Island Guitar Show in May of 2002. Fabulous footage of master musicians doing what they do best make this DVD a real treat. The depth of Gene Bertoncini and the fire of Barry Greene and Ron Afiff made this night one to remember. Captured in an almost informal setting at times, these fine players show off the sounds of their stunning guitars hand-built by John Buscarino.

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Great Playing, OK sound quality.......2003-07-08

This DVD has some great performances. I would have liked to have seen more duo performances however. Solo guitar takes the stage for more than half of the sets and I started missing the interaction that two jazz guitarists can share. There are acoustic and electric performances by Ron Affif and Gene Bertoncini. Barry Green and Cory Christiansen play electric only.

My only real complaint is the less than perfect sound and picture quality. If you've ever seen Cafe' Benedetto, you know what I mean. It is better than that video, but not by much. The performances are sincere and very well played, but the so so sound quality is hard to overcome. Overall, the DVD is well worth the money and is a great buy for jazz guitar fans.
