New!

New!
The point of departure for the CD Repertoire was existing repertory for the guitar. New! focuses on new music: pieces that rarely or never have been recorded. The majority of the compositions has been written or arranged especially for me by composers who (al but one) I know personally. It is an odd experience to play while the composer is present and, strangely enough, for some time this also put other music in a different perspective for me. Just imagine, Johann Sebastian Bach sitting opposite you with the score on his knee…

Asking someone to write a composition for you has the unexpected result that for a moment you see yourself through the eyes of someone else. Someone who, to your surprise, thinks you are suited to play something that comes close to pop music, while you yourself had something more classical in mind. Thus classical does not cover the music on this CD,. However , I have no idea what this music should be called otherwise…
