Harr i Vuori's Chiroptera (2017) for guitar embraces the instrument with several compositional solutions born from the attributes of the guitar. Dedicated to Patrik Kleemola this 12 minutes work is devided in three movements. The textures of Chiroptera are complex but their build-up, fade-out, measuring and timing of these changes is clearly defined and understandable. According to the composer the name Chiroptera has the same beautiful sound as the composition in whole. In addition he currently lives in an area populated with lots of bats both in the woods and in the atticks. Harri Vuori (b. 1957) studied composition with Paavo Heininen, Eero Hameenniemi and Einojuhani Rautavaara at the Sibelius Academy. He has been composer in residence of the Hyvinkaa Orchestra since 1997 and has taught in the Department of Musicology at the University of Helsinki since 1993. HIs guitar concerto Ctulhu's Dreams (2016) based on the Ctulhu mythology by H.P. Lovecraft was commissioned by the Lappeenranta City Orchestra and premiered in 2016.

The DL4 Delay Modeler has remained one of the most widely used delay pedals in the world for more than two decades - embraced by everyone from casual players to superstars. The DL4 was the first pedal to offer a broad selection of delay models based on vintage tape echo devices such as the Maestro® EP-1 Echoplex and the Roland® RE-101 Space Echo, classic analog delay stompboxes such as the Electro-Harmonix® Deluxe Memory Man, and even the Binson Echorec and studio staple TC Electronic® 2290 Dynamic Digital Delay. These were complemented by several Line 6 originals, including the exceptional Reverse delay - and the DL4 also boasted a highly intuitive “14 Second Loop Sampler” that is still considered one of most engaging loopers ever made. The DL4 MkII honors that legacy by including every one of those original sounds and features, and retaining the same knob and footswitch layout, so there's no need for DL4 users to learn any new moves - but the DL4 MkII also introduces many new sounds and features that bring it fully into the 21st century. The 15 MkII delays were drawn from our HX family of amp and effects processors and include Line 6 originals such as Harmony Delay, Pitch Echo, Euclidian Delay, Glitch Delay and ADT tape delay, as well as 4-Switch and 1-Switch loopers with up to 240 seconds of record time, expandable to several hours using an optional microSD card. The DL4 MkII also features an XLR dynamic microphone input for vocal processing and looping; MIDI capabilities such as real time parameter control and preset selection (up to 128) via its MIDI In and Out/Thru DIN connectors; four heavy duty footswitches with colored halo rings; and switchable true, buffered, or DSP bypass. There's also a jack for connecting an optional expression pedal (automatically assigned to the Delay Time, Repeat, Tweak, Tweez, or Mix controls) or two assignable external footswitches. •Identical knob and footswitch layout as the original DL4 •30 Delay options: 15 new MkII plus 15 Legacy DL4 •2 Loopers - mono/stereo and pre/post signal path options •Up to 240 seconds of looping time, or several hours with optional microSD card •XLR dynamic microphone input for vocal processing and looping •MIDI In, Out/Thru DIN connectors-receives PC and CC messages •128 Presets via MIDI, with footswitch control of up to six •Switchable true, buffered, or DSP bypass •Input for optional expression pedal or two additional footswitches.

Il grande larice rosso; Piccole vite; Requiem per un bosco

Never before have I felt the urgency within myself to communicate with my instrument something which goes beyond just the notes, a desire to embrace with music parts of the world which I see as being so neglected and abandoned, as if man were no longer able to see beyond the narrow confines of his home and work spaces. The environment which surrounds us, free and pure, seems to bow more and more to the base instincts of abuse which man brings into play... the destruction of centuries-old forests and glaciers, the construction of harmful and disturbing, useless and polluting elements... and I wonder what we can do, what I, as a musician, can do, at least to show my disapproval of these situations. I have no straight answer but I know that writing the music I love to play, often born in natural and wild environments can help to dream of, or imagine a present time which is more on a human scale, thanks to the strong evocative power which music possesses and emanates.
This is the meaning of these compositions, dedicated to a tree, a 700-year-old specimen of the Stura Valley, Lu Merze Gros (The Big Larch), to the small beings which inhabit it, in the bark, among its foliage, in the surrounding soil and to my sense of frustration at seeing a forest of fir trees razed to the ground to allow the construction of a bobsleigh run.
This action of mine has been useless and nostalgic perhaps, but it has given me intense moments of emotion in the writing and moves me enormously during its performance.

Giorg io Signorile.
