New Old Solo Guitar and Flute and Guitar Music
As some of you may know, I’ve been doing some soul searching lately and looking back on how my music has progressed over the years. In that process, I traveled back to the very beginning, to my classical guitar roots. And I dug up some old performances. I’ve compiled them into 2 albums which I would like to officially announce. One is a solo guitar album, and the other is a guitar and flute album performed by me, and my friend, the talented Lauren Bonativicola.
These songs are composed by giants in the classical world, and I hope that Lauren and I were able to do them justice.
This music means a lot to me because of how formative it was at such a crucial and vulnerable time. The recordings are a little messy, no matter how much I tried to remaster and restore them, and the performances are imperfect, but in a way, I feel that makes it honest and charming.
The title, “The Guitarist,” is a tribute to one of the most important albums to me growing up. That album is called, “The Guitarist,” created by John Williams (the guitarist / not the film composer). That album introduced me to a new world where I thought, “I never knew a guitar could sound like,” and the rest is history.
I hope you enjoy!
