Story behind the song
I was asked to give a description of each selection on the "Concert by the Sea" CD album, but had to decline. Why? Because these are not 'songs,' they are compositions I have written and performed, primarily motivated by thoughts of beautiful people, all female, and places I love.
Although it seems I've done virtually every style and genre of guitar, these are of a different caliber altogether. So how do you describe beauty, passion, feeling, a mood? I can't paint the pictures you see or feel with these selections, you must paint your own.
How you term the musical creations; whether you call them Classical, Flamenco or Jazz, doesn't matter. It's the nakedness, purity and the isolation of your very soul I want to reach with all nine selections I'm playing on dual guitars, as you create your own titles.
Music I believe, is desperately needed in one's life now, to remind you as we deal with daily stress, there is still something left on this planet to appreciate.
