Leo Brouwer ... Cimarrón   [...] Aporta otros valores extra guitarrísticos que si van a incidir en el desarrollo expresivo del instrumento: tocar con arco, percutir en la tapa del instrumento, tocar con la guitarra encima de las piernas y utilizar materiales metálicos y de cristal (usado en la música rock por los Rolling Stone y otros grupos) [...]   Leo Brouwer y su aportación a la composición guitarrística de Vanguardia /   Carolina Queipo Gutirrez (04/2002).   [...] Henze is one of the more familiar names, and Brouwer has extracted several movements from his song cycle Cimarrón. The most avant-garde sounds are contained in this track: Brouwer uses a cello bow and what sounds like a glass bottle on the fingerboard. [...] La Folia (Deutsche Grammophon's Echo 20/21 series : Leo Brouwer: RARA - originally released in 1971 and 1973)
Jimmy Page ... Dazed and confused   [...] Jimmy Page's fantasy sequence may be the best of all. It's certainly the most symbolic, as he climbs a mountain during a full moon, then sees himself age from embryo to old man and back again. Page is a follower of the demonic Aleister Crowley, an expert mountain climber (even going so far as to buy Crowley's house overlooking Loc Ness, where Page's scenes were filmed). The music underneath this is Page's solo where he plays his Les Paul electric guitar with a violin bow (this is the inspiration for the hilarious bit in "Spinal Tap", where Nigel Tufnel plays his Les Paul with a *violin*), the centerpiece of "Dazed & Confused", pages 28 minute long guitar tour-de-force.[...] http://www.ideasinactiontv.com/tcs_daily/edward-b-driscoll/   The Song Remains the Same /   Edward B. Driscoll, Jr (1998).
Peter Yates plays Manuel de Falla's Pour le Tombeau de Debussy on bowed guitar (arpeggione).   [...] He has had to build his own instrument (cruelly sacrificing a beautiful baby cello and a serviceable guitar) to do this. The result has been an instrument capable of playing items from the viola-da-gamba repertoire (featured will be a Bach sonata and a solo piece from the Dutch Baroque), as well as bowed versions of works for guitar (in this case, two pieces by 20th-century-Mexican composer Carlos Chavez)[...]
Jonathan Wilson ... Vivaldini Impromptu   [...] Jonathan Wilson, of San Fernando, California has done just that, designing a modern version of a viol/guitar hybrid (bowed guitar) called the "arpeggione". He can play this instrument with a bow or pick it like a traditional guitar.[...]   Developing A Modern Arpeggione /   Guitar Nine (2001).
