Stuart,
I think it would unfair and unreasonable for anyone to answer for
Gordon. I'm sure he would be happy to hear from you. His email address
is on his website, [1]www.gordonferries.com and is
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
He pretty much plays it the same way on the CD, with some wild baroque
guitar-like rasgueados. He is just fooling around - sorry, improvising
- on the ground - what any self-respecting musician would do. You seem
to be questioning his choice of appropriate style and techniques. I've
never studied the 4c repertoire, so have no informed opinion. So far
you have described what he does, and have asked us what we think, but
what do you think?

OK OK I did miss something drastically important. Gordon just emailed
me, noting the title of the piece! My only (very weak) defence is that
he looks so serious. The hammer-on is tongue-in-cheek.
Stuart
