Rivers & Bridges
Rivers & Bridges is a pastoral experience, rich in color & texture, coursing through various moods w/ a river allegory at its' core. Impressionist six-string dramaturgy cascade forth, ebbing & flowing in steady ragalike waves, across placid sound pools & frothing rapids. Through each piece a myriad of sounds & styles are explored, touching upon American folk, Native American linearity, Middle Eastern resonance, East Indian raga & Western classical with heartfelt ease - & often w/in the same tune. Propelled all the while by an intricate sense of melodic invention, the depth of imagery & complexity of texture is remarkable & simply gorgeous
