Strunz & Farah - Stringweave (2001)

Genre: Jazz Fusion, World Fusion, Instrumental Virtuoso

The brilliant acoustic duo Strunz and Farah's 2001 release Stringweave blends the passion of flamenco with the improvisational aspects of jazz and dazzling Afro-Latin and Middle Eastern rhythms. Stringweave also showcases more than a dozen guest musicians including classical guitarist Liona Boyd, South Indian violinist L. Subramaniam, Puerto Rican cuatro player Edwin Colon Zayas, and Persian violinist Bijan Mortazavi. Percussion-filled and featuring numerous fretted string instruments (hence the title), Stringweave is a guitarist's dream CD, merging man and instrument, that will supply hours of listening pleasure. ~ Buy It at Lowest Price on Amazon

This CD is just stunning! Great variety of styles & moods, and even more intricate compositions than any previous albums of Strunz & Farah. Every cut is great but Campera, Ecos and Siluera are just exquisite compositions! Listen closely to what the other guitar is doing while the lead is playing - extra little intricate touches that enhance the incredible runs (often at unbelievable speed & complexity)of the lead. But the speed is not just showboating - it perfectly fits the mood and movement of the piece, a wonderful counterpoint to the recurring theme or a lightly strummed chord or a few slowly picked strings. These guys blow me away! I can listen over and over to the CD and never get tired of hearing the incredible skill & passion this music holds. Lots of variety - some pieces have a definite Euro flavor (maybe French almost), others more Spanish/Latin American and the last 2 cuts are very Middle Eastern w/ great accompaniments by musicians on instruments of the region. I have to say this CD is a Masterpiece! Different from earlier ones - the guitars are much more up front & the percussion more subdued - enhancing rather than molding the piece. My favorite for over a year now - I listen to it at least once a week! ~ Review by Timothy J. Toth @
