Description:
This electrifying guitar-based collection of instrumental music is a satisfying blend of traditional hymns and contemporary pieces as well as several charming original instrumental compositions.
The music encompasses a variety of styles that will satisfy everyone's musical taste. A traditional classical guitar treatment accents Schubert's "Ave Maria," while Beethoven's "Hymn to Joy" is showcased with a light, Southern blues arrangement. David Haas's haunting "You Are Mine" is delivered in a simple, straight-forward style, while "Winds of the Spirit" receives a more blues/new-age, full-blown treatment. "God of All Creation" and "At Dawn" both draw on a very modern pop style.
The reflective feel of the recording provides a relaxing respite from the proceedings of everyday life. Arrangements are warm and soothing, yet with enough zest and verve to make for an exciting collection.
This edition includes instrumental inserts for selected titles for Guitar II, 1–3 C Instruments, Cello, Bass.
