Contemporary classical guitarist Michael Nicolella's year 2000 release of new cutting-edge works for classical and electric guitar in solo and ensemble settings is entitled Push. The CD features music by Astor Piazzolla, John Fitz Rogers, Luciano Berio, Richard Kranjac, Toru Takemitsu, Bryan Johnson, Jimi Hendrix, Roberto Sierra and a Michael Nicolella original ("Three Brief Episodes"). Nicolella is recognized as one of America's most innovative and eclectic classical guitar virtuosi. Known for his creative programming, he has introduced electric guitar into his "classical" programs - here, you'll find the solo electric guitar title track reminiscent of some of Edward Van Halen's solos, and a solo electric guitar version of Hendrix' "Little Wing". Push spotlights Nicolella's impeccable articulation, melodic sense and technical command - classical guitar at it's best. Instrumental Guitar (Acoustic/Classical), total running time, 63:51 - Michael Nicolella @ iTunes!
