Description
"8 Jewish melodies for guitar trio" is a collection
of arrangements by David W Solomons
of traditional tunes from various Jewish traditions
Thanks to the careful work of Alessandro Balsimini,
guitarist from Treviso, Italy,
who has already perfomed some of these pieces
with his trio in 2012, the scores
and parts have been expertly fingered and edited
to ensure the right balance of
sounds and sonorities in live performance.
