about

"Dazzling collection of 13 tracks from an array of harp guitar virtuosos…" - Elderly Instruments

"Harp Guitar Dreams...is wonderful. Personally, I was amazed at the sound created by the musicians. The richness of the instruments and the spirit of the compositions make it perfect for my show. The booklet included with the...CD was a great addition - friends can't believe the beauty of the instruments!" -Andy Dooley-Miller. KVMR, Nevada City, CA

"Harp Guitar Ear Candy: This follow-up to Beyond Six Strings features 13 guitarists, each playing an original solo instrumental on different models of harp guitar. The music mostly falls into the “new age” category, but is as varied as the players and instruments, and is anything but wallpaper. For his recording debut on harp guitar, Alex de Grassi chose probably the most radical instrument featured here (a 39-string Harp-Sympitar built by Fred Carlson) for a beautiful variation on “Greensleeves.” Meanwhile, Muriel Anderson plays a nylon-string “harp requinto” (by Mike Doolin) and Tim Donahue employs an electric model of his own design. In the vintage category, there are a 1913 Gibson (played by Tom Shinness), Carter Lancaster’s 1914 Dyer Style 6, and a 1912 Knutsen “zither harp guitar,” utilized by label head and producer Gregg Miner. The latter features three different banks of treble strings (in addition of the six guitar strings), which Miner juggles to great effect on “Bridge of Verdant Mist.” Most refreshing is the fact …the music stands on its own, and you needn’t be a harp guitar aficionado (or even guitarist) to enjoy it." - © Dan Forte, Vintage Guitar Magazine (March, 2009)
