Hristo Vitchev Quartet: Familiar Fields
by Karl Ackermann
The nine original compositions that make up Familiar Fields were conceived by composer/guitarist Hristo Vitchev between the releases of Song for Messambria (First Orbit Sounds, 2009) and his seven-movement Perperikon Suite (Self Produced, 2011). Vitchev wisely decided that these pieces deserved a home of their own, and that choice is more than validated here. Sharing instrumental ...

Pat Metheny: The Orchestrion Project
by John Kelman
With The Orchestrion Project (Eagle Eye Media, 2012), Pat Metheny provided a detailed visual look into the workings of the guitarist's complex, custom-built conglomeration of instruments--triggered by pneumatics, solenoids and computer programs--that took this orchestral successor to the player piano (the first known version being the panharmonicon, in 1805) not just into a new century, but ...
Eberhard Weber: Positive Pragmatism
by John Kelman
There are plenty of positives about getting older: wisdom, maturity and a more balanced outlook are just three of them.
