With the release of Velocity, guitarist/composer David Pritchard continues his exploration of music for multiple acoustic guitars, also integrating harpsichord, flute, marimba, electric guitar and acoustic bass guitar into the mix. The result is a uniquely hypnotic, mesmerizing musical journey characterized by shifting overlapping meters and sparkling melodic patterns. On some pieces, David has overdubbed all the acoustic guitar parts; on others he is joined by Ken Rosser, Adam Castillo, and Jack Majdecki, all members of his acoustic guitar quartet. As a unit, they weave a gentle yet potent energy into David's compositions; the music is further energized by the addition of acoustic bass guitarist Ed Lucie on several tracks. Velocity also features three pieces for classical guitar, the first being "A Silent Dream" with its haunting and highly cinematic melody. Interestingly, "Clear Margin" unites the modern with the historical in an exciting jazz-tinged duet with David's harpsichordist son Ian, a graduate student at the Royal Conservatory of Music in London. Instrumental Guitar (Acoustic/New Age/Jazz), total running time, 55:47 - David Pritchard @ iTunes!
