Bio / Background
The CD begins with Sugarloaf Ridge, a march featuring viola de gamba, adding an almost bagpipe character, and hammered dulcimer. It is evocative of the 1860's, Civil War era. Madison Moon follows, more of a fusion piece with contrasting minor and major key sections. It features 12-string and Kalimba. Jerry's Jig is the most Celtic piece on the CD. On this piece you will find overlapping guitar lines and hammered dulcimer. Wayward is a quirky tune with the melody played on a resonator guitar with a slide and doubled with another acoustic guitar. The next tune Orangewalk is named for a small town in Belize and has a strong samba feel.
Across the Fields is a pastoral piece that begins with solo cello and builds into a full rhythm section. River1s End is a bossa nova with alto sax, trying to re-create the Paul Desmond-Jim Hall sound. This is also the only song that uses electric guitar, a Gibson hollowbody jazz guitar.
↓ more ↓At Night the Street is an acoustic funk jazz piece with congas adding some spice. October Rain is a moody jazz ballad. The CD concludes with Whispering Falls named for a small waterfall in the Grand Canyon, and is a short duet with guitar and hammered dulcimer.
