Ariel Posen is a fascinating musician. He is an amazing guitarist, but he seems to masterfully measure his skills. With Ariel - who is also a fantastic songwriter and singer - the song always takes the lead. Every note has expressive power and just enough breathing room. In this episode, Niels talks with Ariel about the way he plays with tension building and giving space. It's an art that he himself is continuously exploring. "After all, you don't learn something to not play it, but to indeed play it," he says about that.
Furthermore, he talks about expressive power, his mindset when he is on stage, and about one of his influences, Robben Ford.
