A beautiful, warm and relaxing journey through South American and European folk and guitar music. Carl Herring, recipient of the highly coveted Julian Bream prize whist studying at the Royal Academy of Music, London, performs a mix of own compositions and favourite repertoire on this his second album recording.
"Enter Julian Bream Prize-winner Carl Herring, who sounds as though this music is flowing through him like a force of nature... he negotiates these often very tricky pieces with a beguiling sensitivity to line and rhythmic sap so engaging that it is impossible to imagine the music being played any other way... a guitar recital of truly outstanding quality" International Record Review
"A sunny programme and sparkling technique brighten the day... this is a superb disc... an unrelentingly sunny affair... exceptionally well recorded and smartly packaged" Gramophone Magazine
"Herring is a fine player, with technique to burn, a bright, attractive tone and a sure grasp of rhythmic subtlety" Classical Guitar Magazine
"The first release on this new label is a sumptuous recording of 16 solos (four subtly augmented by tabla or tinaja) that are pure sunshine.
Carl Herring is a name to watch" Classic FM Magazine  Price: $22.98 |
