Tcha Limberger - Herman Schamp: Guitar Duo

Two friends embark upon a quest, beyond all conventions, for what lingers behind music. A purely improvisational dialogue between a Maccaferri 'manouche' guitar and a classical 'Daniele Chiesa' concert guitar arises. This spiritual journey is alienating but fascinating at the same time. Not seldom the musical discourse leaves both theme and tonality far behind, afterwards returning to recognizable memories or to emotional references. A very open space unveils itself, which occasionally seems nearly timeless. An ocean of silence and two friends on a quest for beauty.

Brisa Nova is the combination of two unique and varied talents who share a passion for music that they love to share with their audience. Influenced by their love of bossa nova and jazz, they decided to create a sound that would reflect the warm and breezy Brazilian feel they both love so much. Everything they perform gets "bossa-fied" and even some classic standards come back with a bossa nova rhythm and style. Tracy Benson began performing back in high school, when she used to sit in the locker room to sing and play her guitar because she liked the acoustics.

Lawrence Blatt

Born: August 11, 1971

San Francisco's Lawrence Blatt delivers piercing, original compositions played on acoustic finger-style guitar. His unique sound stems in part from his fusion of classical and modern performance techniques. Blatt shares a little about his mode of playing to create his distinctive sound. "As a solo instrumentalist, I have to let my guitar be my voice. I try to create moods and express feelings by using alternate tunings, by careful attention to musical dynamics and intonation and by layering percussive sounds behind the main voice of the guitar. Sometime playing a phase softer or louder can have a significant impact on what is communicated
