Description
Hi,
This is David Rose, thanks for checking out my CD The Journey. Each piece takes you through a sonic voyage as I use the guitar as a vehicle of personal expression. This is more than a guitar CD and the pieces are larger than one soloist. See what others have said about my music.
The Journey "employs intricate chordal and melodic fingerings...such as tapping, hammering, and open harmonics, reminiscent of acoustic guitarists Michael Hedges and Phil Keaggy. There are nods toward heavy metal guitar expressions as well." Farmington Daily Times
"The music...has a precise flicker and flash...melodies that flow from quick pattering to quiet elegance. The titular 'The Journey' and 'Hymn of Remembrance' are particularly haunting." Arizona Daily Star
"The Journey is a very intimate album, on which David Rose plays a handmade classical guitar. His style is quite varied; from Heavy Wood and tapping, to classical, folk and New Age music. Some of his pieces can be compared with the style of the late Michael Hedges and to Preston Reed's percussive style of playing, as well as Phil Keaggy. His compositions are profound and embody an intimate, melancholic reflection. The tracks The Journey and Ioni have captivating melodies, and a nice "drive." Tapestry and Kunderkine are very percussive, with tapping and slapping techniques. Jemez Suite consists of three fantastic pieces that have the essential kind of stimulating moods that
are completely thrilling. Trailblazer is an intimate piece in which Rose paints a landscape that generates a tender interaction with his listeners; it also has nice Celtic influences and a fabulous ambiance. Hymn of Remembrance is a deeply emotional, classical-sounding piece, which confirms that David Rose is one of those rare guitarists who are able to express emotion in music by combining a wonderful melody line, balance and structure. He is a master at creating a rich and vibrant atmosphere with pieces that are both intimate and contain top-notch techniques. In my view, David Rose is one of the top acoustic guitar players.
