The brightest star burns shortest. "Always remember that somehow this planet was lucky enough to have beauty like this, if only for a moment. And if that's not a good enough reason to enjoy life I don't know what is." -Robert Keeton-

If I've learned anything from Michael, it's that the technique should never overshadow the composition. Make how you play revolve around what you play, and not vice versa. Thanks, Michael. Hope heaven likes Heavy Mental.

Beautiful!!! Hedges' artistry will never fade...versatile and innovative. A very sad loss indeed.
I love this composition. I posted my own (somewhat perky and jazzed-out) rendition of it on my own youtube channel, for fiddle, modulated to the key of D...the only way to get it to fit on a fiddle.
Also, if you like this melody, search youtube-vid: "Li Jie, Bach prelude" Her rendition is exceptional. Interesting how musician's like to make subtle changes to this piece. Everyone is different.

It is interesting that he inspired a new guitar style. One of which that Antoine Dufour plays who similarly went to school to learn classical guitar. I thought that was a bit ironic.

It's a shame how so many talented musicians die or are on the verge of dying: Hedges, Becker, Cobain, Staley, Hendrix...
It's also a shame how these "musicians" are successful:
Mick Thompson, Pete Wentz, Fred Durst
Why are you so ... ( 2 weeks ago by bagpipeplayer)
Why are you so critical of people who are, or were incredibly talented people who enjoyed playing arrangements like this? Do you even play guitar or cello? If not, then you, as someone who has no knowledge of playing a musical instrument cannot effectively critique these people.

Mick Thompson...from slipknot...listen to some of his writing on more recent albums, he is definately a musician and not as you put it a 'musician'.
well i think so anyway.

So music is just ... ( 1 week ago by JesustheLizard)
So music is just for musicians? not only that, but only for musicians that study and play the same instrument? no, music is for everyone and it's all about personal taste. Even the definition of music is subjective and depends on the person perceiving it as well as what ever (or whom ever) is making it
people can enjoy ... ( 1 week ago by bagpipeplayer)
people can enjoy music whether or not they can play it. All I am saying is that criticizing music should be left to musicians. I am a musician myself, but I do not play guitar anymore, so therefore, I do not criticize. I just try to enjoy it as much as I can. I can only effectively criticize other people who play bagpipes.

Just a note, Phil Keaggy was already using this style back in the sixties, and it was reported on in Guitar mag at the end of the sixties and then re-reported many times in the seventies and since. I do miss Michael Hedges and his artistry of Beauty i this world of time and space. His playing still effects me towards gratefulness. Always worth it to behold beauty.
