Album Notes

This CD features the powerful plaintive power of a solo violin, playing partly in Native American flute style, and partly in the style of a Jewish cantor. All tracks are improvisational in style, yet with a natural structure to musical line, giving an engaging dramatic arc.

This is Gary Schnitzer's 8th CD, and his latest. The music on this CD is a break with his previous style of music making. It reflects a long standing love of the Native American flute style of Carlos Nakai, as well as the time he has spent traveling in the American Southwest.

Behold an Unparalleled Musical Journey with -- Call of the Muse
author: Lynne Haley
                            
Gary Schnitzer sets a precedent with his latest CD "Call of the Muse." Using violin in a performance so unique, Gary has transcended the boundaries of both traditional music and anything we've ever heard before. The beauty and feeling of his artistry replicates instruments that are commonly used for meditation; however, the listener is taken on a journey unparalleled in music today. Call of the Muse is radically distinctive, and will let your spirits soar.
